Answer:
v = 14 m/s
= 31.3 mph
The answer would be the same if the mass of the car were 2000 kg
Explanation:
Let V be the final velocity of the car after skidding, and v be the initial velocity of the car. Let a be the acceleration of the car and Δx be the distance the car travels after applying brakes (length of the skid marks). Let Fk be the force of friction between the tyres and the road. Let N be the normal force exerted on the car and μ be the co efficient of kinetic friction.
V^2 = v^2 + 2×a×Δx
Now V, the final velocity is zero as the car stops
0 = v^2 + 2×a×Δx
v^2 = -2×a×Δx
v =√-2×a×Δx .....*
Now applying Newton's Second Law
Fnet = m×a
-Fk = m×a
-μ×N = m×a
-μ×m×g = m×a (The mass cancels out)
a = -μ×g
Substituting the value of a back to equation *
v = √-2×(-μ×g)×Δx
v = √-2×(-0.5×9.8)×20
v = 14 m/s
Therefore the speed the car was travelling with v = 14 m/s
which is equal to 31.3 mph
Now if you were to change the mass of the car to 2000 kg the value for v would still be the same. As it is seen above mass cancels out so it does not influence or affect the value of the velocity obtained.

Answer:
False. Astrology is not a science.
Explanation:
Astrology is a collective term for ideas about the supposed connection between the fate of people and events on Earth and the position of the celestial bodies. It mainly concerns the places in the sky of the sun, moon and planets, which were referred to as stars in ancient times, usually against the background of the fixed stars in the Zodiac. Although astrology cannot be confirmed despite research, and scientists have long rejected the principles of astrology as pseudoscience, many people continue to practice and / or believe in it.
