Answer: It is not likely.

Explanation:

When the bus is moving forward, all the objects inside of it also are moving forward.

Now, as the objects inside the buss are not fixed to the bus, if the bus suddenly stops the objects inside of it will keep moving forward, because of the conservation of the momentum, defined as the quantity of motion (Similar to when you are in a car and it suddenly stops, you can feel the forward impulse).

Then is not likely that, in a case where the bus stops suddenly, an object inside the bus flies backward in opposite direction to the previous movement of the bus.

If a marathon runner averages 9.51 mi/hr, how long does it take him to run a 26.220-mile marathon. Express your answers in hours
ASHA 777 [7]

Explanation:

Speed of the marathon runner, v = 9.51 mi/hr

Distance covered by the runner, d = 26.220 mile

Let t is the time taken by the marathon runner. We know that the speed of the runner is given by total distance divided by total time taken. Mathematically, it is given by :

v=\dfrac{d}{t}

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{26.220\ mi}{9.51\ mi/hr}

t = 2.75 hours

Since, 1 hour = 60 minutes

t = 165 minutes

Since, 1 minute = 60 seconds

t = 9900 seconds

Hence, this is the required solution.
