Answer:

Explanation:

Speed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. ... On the other hand, velocity is a vector quantity; it is direction-aware. Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (a vector quantity) per time ratio.

A school bus has a mass (including the driver and passengers) of 1.64 times 10^4 kg and is driving north at a speed of 15.2 km/h

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of bus along with travelers travelling in North direction is $m_1=1.6\times 10^4 kg$

speed of bus towards North $v_1=15.2 km/h\approx 4.22\ m/s$

mass of bus travelling in South direction is $m_2=1.578\times 10^4 kg$

speed of bus $v_2=12.2 km/h\approx 3.38\ m/s$

mass of each Passenger in south moving bus $m_0=64.8 kg$

Momentum of North moving bus

$P_1=m_1\times v_1$

$P_1=1.6\times 10^4\times 4.22$

$P_1=6.768\times 10^4 kg-m/s$

Momentum with south moving bus

$P_2=m_2\times v_2+n\cdot m_0\times v_2$

$P_2=(1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8 )\cdot 3.38$

For total momentum to be towards south

$P_2-P_1$ should be greater than 0

thus for least value of n

$P_2=P_1$

$(1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8 )\cdot 3.38=6.768\times 10^4$

$1.578\times 10^4+n\cdot 64.8=2.0023\times 10^4$

$n=\frac{4243.6686}{64.8}=65.48\approx 66$

Which statement is correct about the car?

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

OOf we are doing this stuff atm

So if its faster at the front and slow at the back you can tell that its not slowing down because less of a force is there however at the front there is more of a force. Friction is low which means that its not makimg much contact so no sudden change of forces thats also why its B
