E the temperature of a substance. Water has a very high specific heat. That means it needs to absorb a lot of energy before its temperature changes. Sand , on the other hand, have lower specific heats. This means that their temperatures change more quickly. When the summer sun shines down on them, they quickly become hot.
Answer:
H = 27.35 m
Explanation:
From projectile motion, we know that;
h = (v_o)²/2g
Where;
v_o = 12 m/s
g = 9.8 m/s²
Thus;
h = 12²/(2 × 9.8)
h = 144/19.6
h = 7.35 m
Now, we are told that when the man is 20 m above the pillow, he lets go of
the rope.
Thus, greatest height reached by the man above the ground is;
H = 20 + h
H = = 20 + 7.35
H = 27.35 m
Answer:
Obviously Lengthen... 
or 
Explanation:
As we can observe from the equation, time period of a simple pendulum depends upon the length directly. When the gravitational acceleration increases the time period of the pendulum decreases and vice versa. So, by increasing the length, the time period can be adjusted...
Answer:
Explanation:
All the rest of the information is extraneous. The only 2 things you have to know are
d = 20 km
t = 8 minutes = 8/60 hours = 0.13333333
So the speed is s = d/t
s = 20/0.1333333 = 150 km/hour
Note: you have not specified what units the speed is. I suppose you could answer 20/8 = 2.5 km/min
D is the best answer. In many physics problems we treat an extended object as if it were a point with the same mass located at the center of mass.
