Joe and Jim start at rest at the starting line of a race track. Both runners accelerate at the same rate, but Joe accelerates for twice as long as Jim. Describe the final speed of Joe compared to Jim.

Vf₂ = 2 Vf₁

It shows that final speed of Joe is twice the final speed of Jim.

Explanation:

First, we analyze the final speed of Jim by using first equation of motion:

Vf₁ = Vi + at

where,

Vf₁ = final speed of Jim

Vi = initial speed of Jim = 0 m/s

a = acceleration of Jim

t = time of acceleration for Jim

Therefore,

Vf₁ = at   equation (1)

Now, we see the final speed of Joe. For Joe the parameters will become:

Vf = Vf₂

Vi = 0 m/s

a = a

t = 2t

Therefore,

Vf₂ = 2at  

using equation (1):

Vf₂ = 2 Vf₁

It shows that final speed of Joe is twice the final speed of Jim.

blue light is scattered in different directions by the tiny molecules of air. blue is scattered more than other colours because it has a shorter distance to travel which results in smaller waves. this is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
