Answer:
a = 200 m/s²
Explanation:
Given,
The initial speed of rocket-powered sled, u = 0
The final speed of rocket-powered sled, v = 440 m/s
Time taken to reach final speed, t = 2.20 s
The acceleration of the body is given by the change in velocity by time
a = (v - u) / t
= (440 - 0) / 2.20
= 200 m/s²
Therefore, the acceleration of the rocket-powered sled, a = 200 m/s²
ANSWER:
a. Velocity decreased
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
If the person inside the bus experiences a forward movement, this means that the bus is braking, since by action-reaction to compensate for the movement, the body moves forward.
When braking, it means that there is a decrease in speed, therefore, the correct answer is a. Velocity decreased

You can compare the velocity of the car, 60 mph, with the velocity that a mass would acquire when falls from certain height.
First, convert 60 mph to m/s:
60 miles/h * 1.60 km/mile * 1000 m/km * 1h/3600s = 26.67 m/s
Second, calculate from what height a body in free fall reachs 26.67 m/s velocity when hits the floor.
free fall => Vf^2 = 2g*H => H = Vf^2 / (2g)
H = (26.67m/s)^2 / (2*9.8 m/s) = 36.2 m
If you consider that the height between the floors of a building is approximately 3.6 m, you get 36.2 m / 3.6 m/floor = 10 floors.
Then, you conclude that the force of impact is the same as driving you vehicle off a 10 story building.
Answer:
An estimate for the time it will take for a spacecraft to travel from Earth to Mars is approximately 138.8 days
Explanation:
The distance between Earth and the Moon = 684,400 km
The distance between Earth and Mars = 220.58 × 10⁶ km
The distance between Earth and Pluto = 5.2241 × 10⁹ km
The ratio of the distance between Earth and Pluto and the distance between Earth and Mars = (5.2241 × 10⁹ km)/(220.58 × 10⁶ km) ≈ 23.683
It took 2006 to 2015 (9 years) to travel from Earth to Pluto, therefore, it can take approximately (9 years)/(23.683) ≈ 0.38 of a year which is ((9 years)/(23.683)) × 365.2422 ≈ 138.8 days for a spacecraft to travel from Earth to Mars
