To make up for the loss of 1/4 day, the calendar was adjusted so that we have a leap year for every 4 years.

- While a meter is the fundamental unit of length, most distances traveled by humans are measured in miles or kilometers. Why do you think this is?arrow_forwardPlease explain the correct answer. Thanks.arrow_forwardplain your answer. The formula for potential energy is PE = m g h. In this formula, PE stands for potential energy (in joules), m stands for mass (in kilograms), h stands for height (in meters), and g stands for acceleration caused by gravity. On Earth's surface, g is 9.8 m/s?. This means that every second, the speed of a falling object increases by 9.8 m/s. Calculate the potential energy of a 20 kg sled at 40 meters. Show your work.

But I am struggling to find the average velocity for the same thing over a period of one year in m/s. I was wondering how to calculate that? I've tried doing the (final velocity-initial velocity)/2 but the program doesn't accept my answer when using that approach.arrow_forward
