Product of my research: 1 HP = 746 watts .
12 HP = (12 x 746 W) = 8,952 W
8,952 W = 8.952 kW
Answer:
A
Explanation:
earthquakes release energy
Speed and velocity have the same magnitudes. The only difference is that speed is a scalar quantity and velocity is a vector quantity. In other words, speed is just a magnitude, while velocity is a magnitude with direction. They're essentially the same.
Let's convert miles to meters and minutes to seconds
1/4 mile = 402.34 meters ( 1 mile = 1609 m)
13.1 minutes = 786 seconds (1 minute = 60 seconds)
Speed is calculated as distance over time, thus,
Speed = (402.34 meters)*8/786 seconds
a.) Speed = 4.1 m./s
b.) Velocity = 4.1 m/s
