What is speed?

time (hours or seconds)

distance per time (miles per hour or meters per second)

time per distance (hours per mile or seconds per meter)

distance (miles or meters)

Very large accelerations can injure the body, especially if they last for a considerable length of time. one model used to gauge the likelihood of injury is the severity index ( ), defined as =/ . in the expression, is the duration of the accleration, but is not equal to the acceleration. rather, is a dimensionless constant that = the number of multiples of that the acceleration is equal to.in one set of studies of rear-end collisions, a person's velocity increases by 13.7 km/h with an acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 . let the + direction point in the direction the car is traveling. what is the severity index for the collision?

(a) calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 10.0 g. silver has 47 electrons per atom, and its molar mass is 107.87 g/mol. (b) imagine adding electrons to the pin until the negative charge has the very large value 1.00 mc. how many electrons are added for every 109 electrons already present

The number of passengers who arrive at the platform of a subway station for the 10 am train is a random variable with a mean of 120 and a variance of 16. find the lower bound of the probability that there will be between 100 and 140 passengers (round off to second decimal place).
