Answer:
34 m/s
Explanation:
m = Mass of glider with person = 680 kg
v = Velocity of glider with person = 34 m/s
= Mass of glider without person = 680-60 kg
= Gliders speed just after the skydiver lets go
= Mass of person = 60 kg
= Velcotiy of person = 34 m/s
As the linear momentum of the system is conserved
The gliders speed just after the skydiver lets go is 34 m/s
Answer: C)The yellow car was faster. Yellow traveled at a speed of 50 mph while green was traveling at an average of 40 mph.
Explanation:
The speed of each car is defined as:
where d is the distance traveled by the car and t is the time taken.
For the yellow car, d=400 mi and t=8 h, so its speed is
For the green car, d=400 mi and t=10 h, so its speed is
So, the correct choice is
C)The yellow car was faster. Yellow traveled at a speed of 50 mph while green was traveling at an average of 40 mph.
