Two locomotives approach each other on parallel tracks. Each have a speed of 95 km/h with respect to the ground. If they are ini

tially 8.5km apart, how long will it be before they reach each other?

If they are both  traveling with the same speed that means that they will reach other in the middle of the line initially between them. In other word, each will have to travel the same amount before they reach other. 

Now you can calculate the time it takes for only one locomotive to travel half of the total distance between them, and that time is equal to the time you are looking for.

Use 
   t =  S1/2 / v

  where t-time, S-distance traveled , v-velocity

A small sandbag is dropped from rest from a hovering hot-air balloon. (assume the positive direction is upward.) (a) after 1.5 s
marishachu [46]

solution:

We know v0 = 0, a = 9.8, t = 4.0. We need to solve for v

so,

we use the equation:

v = v0 + at

v = 0 + 9.8*4.0

v = 39.2 m/s

Now we just need to solve for d, so we use the equation:

d = v0t + 1/2*a*t^2

d = 0*4.0 + 1/2*9.8*4.0^2

d = 78.4 m

Sam is playing football. She kicks the ball with an average force of 75 N.
damaskus [11]

Answer:

22.5J

Explanation:

Here the force is given. Also, the displacement is given as 30cm.

First we should check if all the values are in their standard form.

Here 30cm should be converted to metre by dividing it with 100.

Which would give us 0.3m

Now we use the equation W=force x displacement =75 x 0.3=22.5J

I hope this satisfies you. If u have any further questions please let me know.

I hope u will follow me and make this the brainliest answer.
