Answer:
15 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
To find how much the passenger car holds, we need to first find what 50% of the trucks gas tank holds.
Truck Gas Tank = 30 gallons
Now we find how much 50% of 30 is:
50% = 0.50
Total = 30 x 0.50
Total = 15 Gallons
So the passenger car holds 15 gallons of gas.
To solve for the time an object takes to hit the ground, the equation
<em>y</em> <em>= y₀ + v₀t + ½gt²</em>, or just <em>0 = y₀ +½gt²</em> since there is no initial velocity and the final y position is 0 (since it is on the ground). Therefore, <em>t = (−2y₀/g)^½.</em>
(-2*60/-9.8)^½ = 3.50 seconds.
