Energy from the gravitational potential store in converted to kinetic energy. Air friction acts against the object, dissipating some energy as heat or sound. The object will continuously accelerate until the acceleration is equal to the air friction acting against it. This is when it reaches terminal velocity
Answer:
1.785 m/s
Explanation:
The momentum can be calculated using the expression below
M1 *V1 + M2 * V2 = (M1+M2) V3
M1= mass of van=9000 kg
M2= mass of car= 850kg
V3= velocity of entangled car
V1= Velocity of the van= 0
V2= velocity of the car= 5 m/ s
Substitute the values
(900×0) + (500×5)=( 900+500)× V3
2500=1400 V3
V3=2500/1400
V3= 1.785 m/s
Hence, velocity of the entangled cars after collision is 1.785 m/s
<span>Given:
3,500 kilometers
Find:</span>
Years for two continents to collide = ?
<span>Solution:
We know that </span>typical motions of one plate relative to another
are 1 centimeter per year.
So first, we convert 3,500 km to cm.<span>
</span><span>
</span>
The solution would be like this for this specific problem:
1 km = 100,000 cm
3,500 km x 100,000 = 350,000,000 cm
Since we know that 1 cm = 1 year, then that means
350,000,000 cm is equivalent to 350,000,000 years.
Therefore, it would take 350 million years for two continents
that are 3500 kilometers apart to collide.

To add, </span>a phenomenon of the plate tectonics of Earth that occurs at
convergent boundaries is called the continental collision.
Answer:
(a) When the resultant force is pointing along east line, the magnitude and direction of the second force is 280 N East
(b) When the resultant force is pointing along west line, the magnitude and direction of the second force is 560 N West
Explanation:
Given;
a force vector points due east, 
= 140 N
let the second force = 
let the resultant of the two vectors = F
(a) When the resultant force is pointing along east line
the second force must be pointing due east
(b) When the resultant force is pointing along west line
the second force must be pointing due west and it must have a greater magnitude compared to the first force in order to have a resultant in west line.
I would say the plastic grip because glass, wood, and plastic are all good conductors of electricity
