<span>To find the acceleration we are given two facts to begin. The impact at 16 km/h and the dent of 6.4 cm, or 0.064 meters. In solving the problem uniform acceleration is assumed, which would mean the avg speed during the impact was 8 km/hr by taking 16/2. We know distance = rate*time (d=r*t) . So t = d / r, so 0.64/8 = 0.008hr for t. Now we can solve for acceleration by taking a = 16 / 0.008 = 2000 km/hr.</span>

Look at the title of the graph, in small print under it.

Each point is "compared to 1950-1980 baseline". So the set of data for those years is being compared to itself. No wonder it matches up pretty close !

A cyclist is moving at a speed of 15 m/s. If the combined mass of the bike and person is 100 kg,
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is equal to mass times velocity in kg and m/s, respectively. Therefore,

p = 100(15) so

p = 1500 \frac{kg*m}{s}
