Answer:

Explanation:

AVerage acceleration is the cjange in velocity with time

a = v-u/t

v is the final velocity = 48m/s

u is the initial velocity = 40m/s

t is the time = 6.5s

a = 48-40/6.5

a = 8/6.5

a = 1.23m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the car’s average acceleration during this period is 1.23m/s²

Which of the following is an example of an even population distribution?

icang [17]

Even population distribution refers to a type of population distribution in which the arrangement is done in such a way that the distance between neighboring individual is maximized and uniform. This type of population distribution is usually found on the farm land, where the space in which the crops are planted have been carefully measured out. Thus an example of even population distribution is corn planted in a field.

Sandy is on a road trip. She leaves at 8:00 AM. It takes her 2 hours to drive 200 kilometers. She stops at a rest stop for half

lutik1710 [3]

The average velocity of Sandy is given by the total distance covered S divided by the total time taken t:
$v= \frac{S}{t}$

The total distance covered is
$S=200 km+0+100 km=300 km$
while the total time taken is 2 hours + half an hour (for the rest) + 1 hour and half, so
$t=2h+0.5h+1.5 h=4 h$
Therefore, the average velocity is
$v= \frac{S}{t}= \frac{300 km}{4 h}=75 km/h$

You yell into a canyon. You hear the echo in 3 seconds. How long did the sound of your voice travel before bouncing off a cliff?

Lilit [14]

Answer:

The sound travelled 516 meters before bouncing off a cliff.

Explanation:

The sound is an example of mechanical wave, which means that it needs a medium to propagate itself at constant speed. The time needed to hear the echo is equal to twice the height of the canyon divided by the velocity of sound. In addition, the speed of sound through the air at a temperature of 20 ºC is approximately 344 meters per second. Then, the height of the canyon can be derived from the following kinematic formula:

$2\cdot h = v\cdot t$ (1)
