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 football kicker kicks a ball with a mass of .42 kg. The average acceleration of the football was 14.8 m/s squared. How much fo
mrs_skeptik [129]

To find the force we use the formula,

F = ma , where m is mass and a acceleration

Using the formula,

F = ma

F = 0.42 x 14.8

F = 6.216 N / 6.22 N

According to Newton's third law, if you push on a wall, the wall ?
Lady bird [3.3K]

The wall will push back, in exactly the opposite direction, and with
exactly the same size force.

That's why the net force on the palm of your hand is zero, and that
in turn is the reason that your hand doesn't accelerate.

If you keep increasing the strength of your push, then eventually you
exceed the force that the wall is capable of delivering.  Then the wall
crumbles and falls, your hand accelerates in the direction you're pushing,
and the crowd goes wild !
