Two rocks, a and b, are thrown horizontally from the top of a cliff. rock a has an initial speed of 10 meters per second and roc

k b has an initial speed of 20 meters per second. how would you describe the time it takes for the rocks to reach the ground and the horizontal distance they travel? both rocks hit the ground at the same time and at the same distance from the base of the cliff. both rocks hit the ground at the same time, but rock b lands twice as far as rock a from the base of the cliff. both rocks hit the ground at the same time, but rock a lands twice as far as rock b from the base of the cliff. rock b hits the ground before rock a, and rock b lands twice as far as rock a from the base of the cliff.

Both rocks hit the ground at the same time and at the same distance from the base of the cliff. Option A is correct.

<h3>What is speed ?</h3>

Speed is defined as the rate of change of the distance or the height attained. it is a time-based quantity. it is denoted by u for the initial speed while u for the final speed. its SI unit is m/sec.

If the  resistance is ignored, things falling near the Earth's surface have the same estimated acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 meters per second.

As a result, the objects' acceleration is the same, and their velocity is growing at a consistent pace.

So that both rocks hit the ground at the same time and at the same distance from the base of the cliff.

Hence, option A is correct.

Studying neutrinos helped to explain how our Sun works but led to changes in theories of particle physics, how is this process c
julsineya [31]

Explanation:

Yes,  evidently, the process is consistent with the scientific process because in scientific process falsification and modification are two very important traits. So this new concept have modified the existing theories.

Through the modification a theory is adjusted without undermining other discovering made through the theory's prediction.

There are many other evidences that prove this fact for example Einstien's Theory of relativity also changes the existing concepts.

Which of the following phenomena are due to the electric interaction? (Select all that apply.) surface tension in water friction
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Surface tension in water

Friction between tires and pavement

Dissolution of salt in water

Explanation:

Surface tension in water: It is due to the electrostatic force of attraction (cohesive force) between water molecules.

Friction between tires and pavement: It is due to the attractive force between tires and pavement.

Dissolution of salt in water: The ions of Na ^ + and Cl ^ - separate due to the strong attraction of water molecules.
