- Quantitatively draw the corresponding velocity-vs-time graph(include numerical values). Be sure to label axes, ticks, and include proper units.This is a graph of velocity vs time, what can we say about the speed of the object?Please help me with this question. I would be very appreciative that! Thanks!
- I need step by step help please.You are sitting in your car at a red light when you see a zombie standing still 65m in front of your car. You both begin to accelerate towards each other. Your car accelerates at 1.8 m/s^2 and the zombie accelerates at 0.6 m/s^2. How long does it take for you to strike the zombie? Make sure to include a diagram of the physical situation, label known and unknown quantities with units, and coordinate system. Thanks!Sophia is cruising at 28.0 m/s down Lake Avenue and through the forest preserve. She notices a deer jump into the road at a location 62.0 m in front of her. Ima first reacts to the event, then slams on her brakes and decelerates at -8.10 m/s2, and ultimately stops a picometer in front of the frozen deer. What is Ima's reaction time? (i.e., how long did it take Sophia to react to the event prior to decelerating?

Astronaut 2 of mass m₂ is initially moving to the right with speed v2 > ₁. Astronaut 1 throws a ball of mass m with speed u relative to herself in a direction opposite to her motion. Astronaut 2 catches the ball. The final speed of astronaut 1 is vf, and the final speed of astronaut 2 is vf,2. ((m+m_1)*(v_1)+(m*u))/m_1 171. Vf₂1 = (m I m.)

- Two locomotives 70 kilometers apart are travelling on the same track towards each other, Engine A moves at 22 kilometers per hour east and engine B moves at 13 kilometersper hour west. At the instant both trains begin moving, an annoying mutant fly beginsflying from engine A towards engine B at 33 kilometers per hour . The instant it touchesB, it turns around and flies back. It goes on this way until the two locomotives collideand the mutant fly is finally squashed. So, before its untimely demise, a) what is the total distance the fly flew? b) the time it took till it was eliminated and c) the average velocity of the fly? how can i find this pleaseHigh-speed motion pictures (3500 frames/second) of a jumping 230 μg flea yielded the data to plot the flea's acceleration as a function of time as shown in the figure ( Figure 1).

To an outside observer on the roadside, Cody’s speed is 21.0 meters per second. A blue car is passing them at a relative velocity of 2.5 meters per second. Which of the following statements are accurate about this situation? (Choose all that apply) The blue car’s velocity, to a roadside observer, is 23.5 m/s. The blue car’s velocity, to a roadside observer, is 18.5 m/s. The dog’s velocity, relative to Cody, is 0 m/s. Cody’s velocity, from the blue car’s frame of reference, is −2.5 m/s. Cody is stationary from the blue car’s frame of reference.
