What is the distance traveled by a car traveling at 54.0 mi/h on a horizontal highway in 2 hours?

The distance traveled by a car traveling at 54.0 miles per hour on a horizontal highway in 2 hours is 108 miles.


If an object traveling in one direction has a positive velocity what kind of velocity would the same object traveling in the opposite direction have?

Regardless of the direction being travelled, any object on the move has a positive velocity, even if it is moving backwards, because velocity is the measure of the rate of movement in a given direction. Compare: A car is traveling forwards on a highway at 100 km/h. How fast is it travelling? If it turns round (or even it doesn't turn round, but just reverses) and travels at 100 km/h, how fast is it travelling? The answer is 100 km/h in both cases. (But reversing on a highway and travelling at 100 km/h is not recommended!)


In a divided highway the opposite directions of travel are segregated by a?

In a divided highway, the opposite directions of travel are typically segregated by a median or barrier that separates the lanes. This helps to prevent head-on collisions and improves overall safety for drivers traveling in both directions.


Why does a car burn more gasoline traveling in a city than it does traveling on an interstate highway?

In the city, a car has to brake frequently. Energy is usually wasted in that case. Also, for example, in front of a red traffic light, the motor continues to waste gasoline even though the car doesn't advance.Note that the car uses more gasoline per km., not necessarily per hour.


What is constant speed Give an example?

if an object is moving without any net force or acceleration, it is moving at constant speed, or constant velocity. For example a satellite orbiting the earth is moving at constant speed, a car traveling at 60 mph, a wind of 20 mph. etc.

What is the meaning of highway bound?

"Highway bound" refers to being on the way to a highway or headed in the direction of a highway. It can also imply that someone is about to embark on a journey that involves traveling on a major road.


If the speed limit of a highway is 60 mph which car exceeded the speed limit assume all the cars were traveling at a constant speed?

To determine which car exceeded the speed limit of 60 mph, we would need the speeds of each car traveling on the highway. Any car traveling at a speed greater than 60 mph would be considered to have exceeded the speed limit. Without specific speed data for each car, we cannot identify which one was speeding.
