1. mr. krabs wants to determine how fast a krabby patty travels when it is catapulted over the restaurant. he uses a stopwatch to record, in seconds, the time it takes for the patty to land on the other side. which unit would be most appropriate to measure the length of the distance traveled by said patty?

a. inches
c. kilometers
e. feet
b. millimeters
d. centimeters
f. meters

1. a moving object collides with a stationary object. which of the following statements is true according to newtons third law of motion?

d. each object exerts a force on the other, and the two forces are the same in magnitude and direction.
e. each object exerts a force on the other, and the two forces are equal and in opposite directions.
f. each object exerts a force on the other, and the two forces are proportional to the masses of the objects.
which is an example of centripetal acceleration?
e. an object at rest
f. an object moving at 20 m/s backward, then 20 m/s to the right
g. an object moving in a circle at 20m/s
h. an object moving in a straight line at a steady speed of 20m/s forward

Explanation:

Question 4

Speed is defined as the distance traveled per unit of time. So, the speed of a bobcat (30 mi/h) indicates the distance it can travel in a certain amount of time (1 hour in this case as the unit is miles per hour).

When measuring the distance a Krabby Patty travels (likely within a reasonable range in a restaurant - like setting), meters are a more appropriate unit. Inches (too small for a catapulted patty over a restaurant), millimeters (very small), centimeters (small), and kilometers (too large for such a context) are not as suitable as meters.

According to Newton's third law of motion, when two objects interact, each object exerts a force on the other, and these two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.

Answer:

h. the distance it can travel in a certain amount of time
