Answer:

10.8 s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = 5 m/s/s

Distance travelled (s) = 291 m

Time (t) taken =?

We can calculate the time taken for the car to cover the distance as follow:

s = ut + ½at²

291 = 0 × t + ½ × 5 × t²

291 = 0 + 2.5 × t²

291 = 2.5 × t²

Divide both side by 2.5

t² = 291 / 2.5

t² = 116.4

Take the square root of both side

t = √116.4

t = 10.8 s

Thus, it will take the car 10.8 s to cover the distance.

One of the longer sides of a kite is 39 feet. one of the shorter sides is 25 feet. half the length of the shorter diagonal is 15
pychu [463]
The area of a triangle is found by multiplying the height of the triangle by the length of the base and dividing them both by 2. The length of the shorter side in the equation is useless information, so just multiply 39 by 25 and divide that by 2. A=487.5 sq ft. Also, that's a pretty big kite.

Why does gas have the most energy but moves the slowest
Ede4ka [16]

Gases have heavier molecules. Since all gases have the same average kinetic energy at the same temperature, lighter molecules move faster and heavier molecules move slower on average.
