Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity of an object that is moving. This value is a result of all the forces that is acting on an object which is described by Newton's second law of motion. To determine acceleration, we need to know the initial velocity and the final velocity and the time elapsed. From the given values, we need t o calculate for the initial velocity. We use some kinematic equations. We do as follows:
x = v0t + at^2/2
60 = v0(6) + a(6)^2/2
60 = 6v0 + 18a (EQUATION 1)
vf = v0 + at
15 = v0 + a(6)
15 = v0 + 6a (EQUATION 2)
Solving for v0 and a,
v0 = 5 m/s
a = 1.7 m/s^2
The answer is: [C]: "elasticity" .

Answer:
It can be said to be reliable although it is not valid
Explanation:
This is because Reliability means an indicator of consistency, A measure should produce similar or the same results consistently if it measures the same quantity. So does the thermometer measures over 5days but it is not valid because it deviates from the real value
Answer:
Natural selection is a simple mechanism that causes populations of living things to change over time. Organisms that are more adapted to their environment are more likely to survive and pass on the genes that aided their success.
Answer: The force does not change.
Explanation:
The force between two charges q₁ and q₂ is:
F = k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2
where:
k is a constant.
r is the distance between the charges.
Now, if we increase the charge of each particle two times, then the new charges will be: 2*q₁ and 2*q₂.
If we also increase the distance between the charges two times, the new distance will be 2*r
Then the new force between them is:
F = k*(2*q₁*2*q₂)/(2*r)^2 = k*(4*q₁*q₂)/(4*r^2) = (4/4)*k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2 = k*(q₁*q₂)/r^2
This is exactly the same as we had at the beginning, then we can conclude that if we increase each of the charges two times and the distance between the charges two times, the force between the charges does not change.
