Answer:
G. It will take twice as long.
Explanation:
Let's call the original speed of the plane and
the distance between Dallas and Pensacola. The time the plane originally takes to complete the flight is
In this problem, we are told that the plane encounters wind moving at half of its speed: , in the opposite direction. This means that the new speed of the plane is
And so, the time the plane takes now to complete the flight is
So, the plane takes twice the time as before.
B) The object's velocity doubled.
Explanation:
The graph is missing: find it in attachment.
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as
where
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity of the object
We notice that:
In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.
First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.
Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore
B) The object's velocity doubled.
