Answer: C)The yellow car was faster. Yellow traveled at a speed of 50 mph while green was traveling at an average of 40 mph.
Explanation:
The speed of each car is defined as:
where d is the distance traveled by the car and t is the time taken.
For the yellow car, d=400 mi and t=8 h, so its speed is
For the green car, d=400 mi and t=10 h, so its speed is
So, the correct choice is
C)The yellow car was faster. Yellow traveled at a speed of 50 mph while green was traveling at an average of 40 mph.
If the gymnast mass were doubled, her height (h) from the top of the board would be as follows,

Explanation:
- The Mass of an object or body does not affect the acceleration due to gravity in any kind of way.
- Light weight objects accelerate more slowly than the heavy objects because when the forces other than the gravity also plays a major role.
- Mass increases of a body when an object has higher velocity or the speed.
- The greater the force of gravity, it would give a direct impact on the object's acceleration; thus considering only a force, the heavier the object is, it would accelerate faster. But an acceleration depends upon the two factors which are force and mass.
- Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the two factors which are, the net force of an object and the mass of the object.
Answer:
The statement "If a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the two objects will repel
" applies to electric charges.
Explanation:
There are only two types of electric charges. Both having own magnitude but different charge.
1. Positive charge
2. Negative charge
Like charges repel each other and opposite charges always attract each other.
When a positively charged rod is brought close to a positively charged object, the rod and the object will repel.
Speed is the rate at which something covers a distance; velocity is the same but it takes into account whether it goes forwards or backwards; and acceleration is the rate of an increase in speed.
Answer:
1000 cm.
Explanation:
To obtain the estimated tree height :
(Height of rod / length of rod shadow) = (height of tree / length of tree shadow)
Substituting values into the formula :
(150cm / 120 cm) = (height of tree / 800 cm)
Using cross multiplication :
Height of tree * 120 = 150 * 800
Height of tree = (150 * 800) / 120
Height of tree = 120,000 / 120
Height of tree = 1000
Hence, estimate height of tree = 1000 cm
