Answer:  20.4 miles

Explanation:

Here we need to use the equation:

Velocity = Distance/Time.

Initially we have that he can travel 30 miles in 2 hours, so the velocity is:

V = 30mi/2h = 15mph

Now, we reduce the velocity by 3 mph, so the new velocity is 15mph - 3 mph = 12mph.

Now we want to know the distance traveled in 1.7 hours with this velocity, this is.

Velocity*Time = Distance

12mi/h*1.7h = 20.4 miles

A ball is thrown straight up into the air with a velocity of 12 m/s. Draw a motion diagram for the ball and then give as much qu
viktelen [127]

Answer:

find the diagram in the attachment.

Explanation:

Let vi = 12 m/s be the intial velocy when the ball is thrown, Δy be the displacement of the ball to a point where it starts returning down, g = 9.8 m/s^2 be the balls acceleration due to gravity.

considering the motion when the ball thrown straight up, we know that the ball will come to a stop and return downwards, so:

(vf)^2 = (vi)^2 + 2×g×Δy

vf = 0 m/s, at the highest point in the upward motion, then:

0 = (vi)^2 + 2×g×Δy

-(vi)^2  = 2×g×Δy

Δy = [-(vi)^2]/2×g

Δy = [-(-12)^2]/(2×9.8)

Δy = - 7.35 m

then from the highest point in the straight up motion, the ball will go back down and attain the speed of 12 m/s at the same level as it was first thrown

How does acceleration affect speed and velocity
Nikitich [7]

Acceleration is a vector quantity that is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. An object is accelerating if it is changing its velocity.

M= Height of image/height of the object

If, M>1, then height of image>height of object.

And therefore, image is larger than the object.
