Austin left the park traveling 4 mph. then, 3 hours later, wyatt left traveling the same direction at 10 mph. how long until wyatt catches up with austin?

ANSWER: 2 hours

EXPLANATION: After three hours Austin has traveled 12 miles. Wyatt will start up and in an hour will be at 10 miles, but by that time Austin will be at 16 miles. One more mile and Wyatt will be at 20 miles and so will Austin. So that would make the answer 2 hours.

0.19 m/s and 0.45 m/s

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
