A zebra drinks from a watering hole and is ambushed by a crocodile. What's more important and why: the zebra having a high maximum speed or a high acceleration?

before this type of attack, high acceleration is the most important thing.

Explanation:

As the zebra is ambushed by the crocodile the most important thing is a quick reaction, in this attack the most likely is that the crocodile is in the water so it cannot run after the zebra.

Consequently, before this type of attack, high acceleration is the most important thing.

electrical potential energy =0.072 j

explanation:

electrical potential energy is given by

u= q δv

q= charge=6 c

δv= potential difference and is given by

δv= e d

e= electric field

d= distance=5 mm=0.005 m

δv=2.4 (0.005)=0.012 v

now electric potential energy= u= q δv

u=6 (0.012)

u=0.072 j

b. false

explanation:

suppose a rock in free fall is dropped off a cliff. after falling for 5 seconds, its speed would not be 100 m/s.
