Answer:

300 miles per hour

Explanation:

Speed is distance per unit time, expressed as s=d/t where t is the time taken, d is distance covered and s is the speed.

Convering s to hrs

To convert seconds to hours, we knkw that 1 hour has 60 minutes and each minute has 60 seconds. Therefore, 1 hour has 60*60=3600 seconds

If 3600s=1 h

60 s=?

By cross multiplication 60s*1 h/3600s=1/60 hours

Given distance as 5 miles and time as 1/60 hours then the speed will be 5 divided by 1/60 hrs which is equivalent to 5*60=300 miles per hour

A 2290 kg car traveling at 10.5 m/s collides with a 2780 kg car that is initially at rest at the stoplight. The cars stick toget
avanturin [10]

Answer:

0.41

Explanation:

given,

mass of the car, m = 2290 Kg

initial speed = 10.5 m/s

mass of another car, M = 2780 Kg

distance moved = 2.80 m

coefficient of friction = ?

conservation of energy

m u = (M + m) V

2290 x 10.5 = (2290 + 2780) V

V = 4.74 m/s

using equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a s

4.74² = 2 x a x 2.8

a = 4.02 m/s²

now using equation

a = μ g

4.02 = μ x 9.8

μ = 0.41

Please HELP ME If the motion of an object changes, what must be true about the forces acting on that object?
atroni [7]

Answer:

If there is a net force acting on an object, the object will have an acceleration and the object's velocity will change. ... Newton's second law states that for a particular force, the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Why is the Earth generally warmer at the equator than at the poles?
Elenna [48]
Because of the earths curve and temperature. The temperature in an area depends on the amount of the Sun's energy reaching the surface in that area. The equator tilts closer to the sun than the poles do. I hope this helps!
