You have three known variables:
Acceleration -

Time -

Initial Velocity -

For the first part of your question:

For the second part of your question:

This still needs to be converted to m/h:
First, we have a change in the velocity from 85 to 164 m/s in 10 sec.
Then, we calculate the <u>acceleration </u>as:

Hence we need to calculate the velocity of the space vehicle at t = 2 sec using the first equation of motion:

Then, using the second equation of motion to calculate the distance:


Answer:
The driver was not telling the truth because it is not possible for a car to hit another car from behind and generate a force to the sides that deflects it from its path.
Explanation:
First, we analyze the driver's statement.
The driver when arriving at the curve, is collided from behind by another car and deviates from his path and crashes into a tree. For the car to go to the tree there must be a force towards the tree.
The net force that causes the car to deviate must be formed by the sum of the motion vector of the first car plus the force that is directed towards the tree.
Here we verify that a car hitting from behind will not generate a force to the sides, but will generate a force in the same direction that the car moves, forward.
Answer:
Hey
Yes, this is true.
As some people have it wrong, waves in the water (ocean) are not waves of moving water, rather the wave is moving through the water. A wave is a disturbance of a medium not the meduim moving.
