D is the correct answer!!
Answer:
the acceleration of the airplane is 5.06 x 10⁻³ m/s²
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the airplane. u = 34.5 m/s
distance traveled by the airplane, s = 46,100 m
final velocity of the airplane, v = 40.7 m/s
The acceleration of the airplane is calculated from the following kinematic equation;
v² = u² + 2as

Therefore, the acceleration of the airplane is 5.06 x 10⁻³ m/s²
Answer:
18.60 m/s
Explanation:
Original momentum = mv = 4000 with m = 115
after collision m = 115 + 100 = 215 kg
but the total momentum is still the same (conserved)
4000 = 215 v shows v = 18.60 m/s
