The person applying a greater pressure to the box is Cindy since it takes her a lesser  time to move the box up the hill.

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The term pressure is defined as the force per unit area. WWe know that the magnitude of force applied is shown by the time taken to push the box up the hill.

Since Cindy pushes the box up the hill in only five seconds, it means that Cindy is applying a greater pressure to the box.

A child on a swing falls a height of 1m. What speed will the child reach?
kirill [66]

Answer:v=4.42\ m/s

Explanation:

Given

Child falls a height of h=1\ m

Applying conservation of energy  we can write

Loss in Potential energy=Gain in kinetic energy

mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 1}

v=\sqrt{19.6}

v=4.42\ m/s

Thus child reaches a velocity of 4.42 m/s

What should you do if a fire breaks out in the back of your boat?
valkas [14]

If a fire breaks out in the back of your boat you should put the back of the boat into the wind so that the fire will not spread easily. Then turn off the engine and paddle the boat to keep the boat into the wind. Also use a fire extinguisher to put the fire off.

How long would it take to drive to alpha centauri (4.4 light-years away)?
oee [108]
A light year is a unit of length that is used to espress distances that are astronomical. It is equivalent to 5.9 trillion miles or 9.5 quadrillion meters. Light year is defined by the distance a beam of light would travel in one year. One light year is equivalent to the distance that light would travel in vacuum on one Julian year or 365 days as defined by the IAU or the  International Astronomical Union. So, one light year is traveled for 1 year here on Earth. So, in order to drive to the alpha centauri, you would take about 4.4 years to do so.
