Answer:

<em>Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration</em>

Explanation:

<u>Accelerated Motion</u>

Both the velocity and acceleration are vectors because they have magnitude and direction. When the motion is restricted to one dimension, i.e. left-right or up-down, the direction is marked with the sign according to some preset reference.

The locomotive is moving at a certain speed with a (so far) unknown sign but the acceleration has a negative sign. Since the locomotive comes to a complete stop it means the velocity and the acceleration are of opposite signs.

Thus the velocity is positive.

Answer: positive velocity & negative acceleration

Suppose you have two identical sheets of paper and you crumple one of the sheets of paper into a ball. If you drop the crumpled
sammy [17]

Answer:

Because it can easily resist air resistance.

Explanation:

Since air resistance is not negligible, the crumpled paper will reach the ground first because it can easily resist air resistance surrounding it compare to the un-crumpled one that will be influenced by the air thereby causing the un-crumpled paper to spend more time in the air

Stand next to a wall that travels at 30 km/s relative to the Sun. With your feet on the ground, you also travel at the same 30 k
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Yes. Inertia keeps the speed maintained though my feet leave the ground.

Explanation:

Inertia is the resistance to the change in position of any object this means this resistance will keep me traveling at 30 km/s relative to the sun. If the person wants to change the position we apply force to do that because inertia is opposing us to not do that. We are always traveling with 30km/s relative to sun due to inertia.

A sprinter set a high school record in track and field, running 200.0 m in 20.6 s . what is the average speed of the sprinter in
Paraphin [41]

Answer : The average speed of the sprinter is, 34.95 Km/hr

Solution :

Average velocity : It is defined as the distance traveled by the time taken.

Formula used for average velocity :

v_{av}=\frac{d}{t}

where,

v_{av} = average velocity

d = distance traveled = 200 m

t = time taken = 20.6 s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the average velocity of the sprinter.

v_{av}=\frac{200m}{20.6s}\times \frac{3600}{1000}=34.95Km/hr

conversion :

(1 Km = 1000m)

(1 hr = 3600 s)

Therefore, the average speed of the sprinter is, 34.95 Km/hr
