A coin is dropped from a height and reaches the ground in 2 seconds. Neglecting air resistance, from what height (in meters) was
Kamila [148]

Answer:

Coin is dropped from a height of 19.62 m

Explanation:

We have given time t = 2 sec

As coin is drop means its initial velocity u = 0 m/sec

We have to find the height from which coin is dropped

From second equation of motion we know that

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

So height h=0\times2+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times 2^2=19.62m

So coin is dropped from a height of 19.62 m

Sir Isaac Newton determined that gravity has a fixed acceleration on Earth. The earth pulls objects towards it with a fixed acce
ozzi

A.  Scientific Law.  The mathematics surrounding the acceleration due to gravity is a law.  It is calculated from the universal law of gravity.  However, the explanation of the idea of gravity is a theory.  This falls back to the idea that science is about disproving ideas that we currently believe, rather than proving ideas are correct.  Unless we can disprove an idea, we have to accept the possibility that it is true; the more trials we have of being unable to disprove something, the more accepted it will be.  Yet, no idea can be without doubt and certainty be accepted for what it is.  So, to sum it up, scientific laws are factual descriptions (by formula or word) of phenomenon which always occur given specific conditions.  On the other hand, scientific theories are explanations of the causes underlying these phenomena, the explanation formulated in such a way that they can be disproven.

What is the most effective way to protect dry lands from desertification
Sonja [21]

Answer: Planting a tree belt.

Explanation:

The most effective method by which the desertification of the soil can be controlled is by planting more and more trees.

The process of desertification occurs when there is a loss of vegetation, water bodies and animals  from a particular area. Loss of trees makes the area look like desert.

So, planting trees along with some irrigation will help to cope with problem.
