Velocity is the speed of an object in a given direction.

Because the two runners are going in different directions the velocities are not the same.

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Velocity is simply your displacement divided by your time.

Now if we break down displacement, it means how far you are from your starting position, even if their in opposite  directions, the displacement is still 10 miles from the starting point after one hour.

A car is traveling at 96km/hr. what is the acceleration of a car traveling a distance of 100m and come to rest?​
8090 [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

v² = u² + 2as

v = 0

u = 96 / 3.6 = 26.7 m/s

0² = 26.7² + 2a100

a = -3.5555555... ≈ -3.6 m/s²

the negative sign indicated the acceleration vector opposes the (assumed positive) initial velocity vector direction.

A train travels 120 km in 2 hours and 30 minutes. What is its average speed?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

13.33 or 13 1/3m/s (meters per second)

Explanation:

In physics, we use the basic units of meters and seconds. So first convert (km) into meters (m) and also hours and minutes into seconds (s). We end up with 120000m and 9000s. Then divide the 120000m by the 9000s and you end up with 13.33 or 13 1/3 m/s.

Why is the contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of secondary wave front zero?​
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The contribution of the wavelets lying on the back of the wave front is zero because of something known as the Obliquity Factor. It is assumed that the amplitude of the secondary wavelets is not independent of the direction of propagation, Sources: byju's.com

How does NaOH form a basic solution when it dissolves in water
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
It decomposes into CH3COO- and H+ when dissolved in water. The H+ ions react with the water molecules to generate H3O+, making the solution acidic. When NaOH is added to water, it separates into Na+ and OH-. The sodiums have little effect on the solution, but the hydroxyls make it more basic.
