Converting 60 and 180 kmph into m/s
that's 16.67 m/s and 50 m/s
now
16.67*16.67 = 2*a*30
277.88/60 = a
4.631 m/s^2
as the vehicle is same it will decelerate with the same value
and thus
50*50 = 2*4.631*s
2500/9.262 = s
that's around 270 m

Answer:

11.3 m/s

Explanation:

KE₁ = KE₂

½m₁v₁² = ½m₂v₂²

½ (2 kg) v² = ½ (4 kg) (8 m/s)²

v ≈ 11.3 m/s

Why are different constellations<br> of stars seen during different<br> seasons?
slamgirl [31]
Actually, they're not.  There's a group of stars and constellations arranged
around the pole of the sky that's visible at any time of any dark, clear night,
all year around.  And any star or constellation in the rest of the sky is visible
for roughly 11 out of every 12 months ... at SOME time of the night. 

Constellations appear to change drastically from one season to the next,
and even from one month to the next, only if you do your stargazing around
the same time every night.

Why does the night sky change at various times of the year ?  Here's how to
think about it:

The Earth spins once a day. You spin along with the Earth, and your clock is
built to follow the sun . "Noon" is the time when the sun is directly over your
head, and "Midnight" is the time when the sun is directly beneath your feet.

Let's say that you go out and look at the stars tonight at midnight, when you're
facing directly away from the sun.

In 6 months from now, when you and the Earth are halfway around on the other
side of the sun, where are those same stars ?  Now they're straight in the
direction of the sun.  So they're directly overhead at Noon, not at Midnight.

THAT's why stars and constellations appear to be in a different part of the sky,
at the same time of night on different dates.

Explain how water circulates from deep oceans to the surface.
Alexxandr [17]
"These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation. In the Earth's polar regions ocean watergets very cold, forming sea ice." this is what I found...
