Answer:

30 km/h car

Step-by-step explanation:

From analysis the car traveling at 30 km/h has greater kinetic energy

we can deduce it from the expression of kinetic energy which is

$KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Assuming the mass m= 1 kg

For the 30 km/h

$KE=\frac{1}{2}*1*30^2 \\\\KE=\frac{1}{2}*1*900\\\\\KE=450 J$

For the 15 km/h

$KE=\frac{1}{2}*2*15^2 \\\\ KE=\frac{1}{2}*2*225 \\\\\ KE=\frac{1}{2}*450 J\\\\\ KE=225 J$

Though the kinetic energy is a function of mass and velocity, but from our analysis the faster moving object has more KE

How many ways are there to select a 5-card hand from a regular deck such that the hand contains at least one card from each suit

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

There are 685464 ways of selecting the 5-card hand

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the hand has 5 cards and there should be at least 1 card for each suit, then there should be 3 suits that appear once in the hand, and one suit that apperas twice.

In order to create a possible hand, first we select the suit that will appear twice. There are 4 possibilities for this. For that suit, we select the 2 cards that appear with the respective suit. Since there are 13 cards for each suit, then we have ${13 \choose 2} = 78$ possibilities. Then we pick one card of all remaining 3 suits. We have 13 ways to pick a card in each case.
