Answer:

194,400 joules of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Remember that to calculate the Kinetic energy you need to use the next formula:

$Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2$

We know that Mass= 1200 kg and velocity is 18m/s, so we insert those values into the formula:

$Ke=\frac{1}{2}Mass*Velocity^2\\Ke=\frac{1}{2}1200kg*(18m/s)^2\\Ke=194,400 joules$

So the kinetic energy of a car moving at 18m/s with a mass of 1200 kg would be 194,400 joules.

What motivates the squire in lines 85- 90?

just olya [345]

<span>Answer: If you mean the Knight in the prologue, the man traveling with his son (the Squire) and a Yeoman, he is traveling to Canterbury to give thanks for his safe return from the wars in the Baltic. We're told that he has never been known to speak unkindly to anyone, a fact that sums up his chivalrous upbringing. Evidently he feels strongly motivated to live by a code of high standards and refined behavior.</span>

How does the sun rise and set

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

c. earth rotates on it tilted axis and orbit around the sun at the same time

Explanation:

Earth rotation can be defined as the amount of time taken by planet earth to complete its spinning movement on its axis.

This ultimately implies that, the rotation of earth refers to the time taken by earth to rotate once on its axis. One spinning movement of the earth on its axis takes approximately 24 hours to complete with respect to the sun. Thus, this makes us to experience day and night (sun rise and sun set) due to the rotation of planet about its axis.

Hence, the sun rise and set because the earth rotates on it tilted axis and orbit around the sun at the same time

The velocity time graph of an object is shown below. How far does the object travel in the time interval t =4 s to t = 6 s?

Trava [24]

The distance covered by the object between t =4 s and t = 6 s is 4 m

Explanation:

In a velocity-time graph, the distance covered by the object represented can be found by calculating the area under the curve.

Therefore, the distance covered by the object between t = 4 s and t = 6 s is the area under the curve between 4 s and 6 s.

We see that we have to calculate the area of a triangle, with:

Base:

$b=6-4 = 2$
