Answer:

The answer is B

every hour, Steve and Carl cover 60 miles

if they need to cover 180 miles it will take them 3 hours

you can set up a proportion

60/1=180x where x is the amount of hours Steve and Carl will drive to cover 180 miles.

proportion simplifies to this:

60x=180

isolate the varible

60x/60=180/60

x=3

Time = (distance) / (speed)

Time = (180 miles) / (60 mi/hr)

Time = (180/60) (mi-hr/mi)

<em>Time = 3 hours</em>

A sprinter starts from rest and reaches a speed of 15 m/s in 4.25 s. Find his acceleration
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

a=3.53 m/s^2

Explanation:

Vo=0 m/s (because he is not moving at the start)

V1=15 m/s

t= 4.25 s

a = (V1-Vo) / t = 15/4.25 = 3.53 m/s^2

A car traveling at 60km/h undergoes uniform acceleration at a rate of 2/ms^2 until is velocity reached 120km/h determine the dis
jenyasd209 [6]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of a car, u = 60 km/h = 16.67 m/s

Acceleration, a = 2m/s²

Final speed, v = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

We need to find the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance.

acceleration = rate of change of velocity

a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\dfrac{33.33 -16.67 }{2}\\\\t=8.33\ s

let the distance be d.

d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\frac{33.33^{2}-16.67^{2}}{2(2)}\\\\d=208.25\ m

Hence, the distance traveled and the time taken to make the distance is 208.25 m and 8.33 seconds respectively.

a rock is dropped from a height of 80 m and is in free fall what is the velocity of as it reaches the ground 4.0 seconds later
Marta_Voda [28]
Velocity = displacement (distance)/time

v=80m/4s

v=20m/s

velocity = 20 meters per second
