A man's higher initial acceleration means that a man can outrun a horse over a very short race. A simple - but plausible - model for a sprint by a man and a horse uses the following assumptions: The man accelerates at 6.0 m/s2for 1.8 s and then runs at a constant speed. A horse accelerates at a more modest 5.0 m/s2 but continues accelerating for 4.8 s and then continues at a constant speed. A man and a horse are competing in a 200 m race. The man is given a 100 m head start, so he begins 100 mfrom the finish line. How much time does it take the man to finish the race? The horse? Who wins?

neither accurate nor precise.

we're given that v₀ = 0 and a = 5.4 m/s². therefore, since v = at + v₀ for constant acceleration the equation for velocity is

after 28s,

m/s

which i would round to 150 m/s as my final answer

note: the given question is incomplete.

complete question is given below.

which is an example of kinetic energy?

a. the energy stored in ethanol  

b. a hockey puck sliding across the ice  

c. a compressed spring  

d. a ball sitting at the top of a ramp

solution: the kinetic energy is the energy posses by the virtue of the motion of the object.

in the given options, a, c and d are the example of potential energy because it is the energy posses by the virtue of the rest of the object. but option b has the kinetic energy as the object is in motion.

hence, a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the apex example of kinetic energy.

so, the option (b) a hockey puck sliding across the ice   is the correct option.

305.7

explanation:

density =m/v

density =917/3.00

density = 305.

approximately = 305.7
