The vertical height from where Jeff dropped the bottle is 10m.

<h3>What is free falling?</h3>

When an object is released from rest in free air considering no friction, the motion is depend only on the acceleration due to gravity, g.

If we drop an object of mass m near the Earth surface from a height h, it has initial mechanical energy(P.E) of

U =mgh

When the object strikes the ground, all the potential energy converted into kinetic energy.

k.E = 1/2mv²

where v is the speed just before hitting the ground.

From energy conservation principle, initial and final mechanical energy are equal.

mgh = 1/2mv²

Given is Jeff climbs a hill. He drops his water bottle, which has a mass of 0.25 kilograms. The bottle slides down the hill and is moving at a velocity of 14 meters/second the instant it hits the ground.

The height from which bottle could fall is

h = v²/2g

Substitute the values, we get

h = (14)²/(2x9.81)

h =9.99 m

Thus, vertical height from where Jeff dropped the bottle is approximately 10m.

The balanced chemical equation is 2 AlI₃ + 3 HgCl₂ $\rightarrow$ 2 AlCl₃ + 3 HgI₂ for the given chemical reaction.

<h3>What is chemical equation?</h3>

Chemical equation is a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction which is written in the form of symbols and chemical formulas.The reactants are present on the left hand side while the products are present on the right hand side.

A plus sign is present between reactants and products if they are more than one in any case and an arrow is present pointing towards the product side which indicates the direction of the reaction .There are coefficients present next to the chemical symbols and formulas .

The first chemical equation was put forth by Jean Beguin in 1615.By making use of chemical equations the direction of reaction ,state of reactants and products can be stated. In the chemical equations even the temperature to be maintained and catalyst can be mentioned.

Answer:

Aceleración, a = 2 m/s²

Explanation:

Dados los siguientes datos;

Velocidad inicial = 108 km/h

Tiempo = 10 segundos

Velocidad final = 36 km/h

To find the average acceleration;

Conversión:

36 km/h to meters per seconds = 36*1000/3600 = 10 m/s

108 km/h to meters per seconds = 108*1000/3600 = 30 m/s

I. Para encontrar la aceleración, usaríamos la primera ecuación de movimiento;

$V = U + at$

Dónde;

V es la velocidad final.

U es la velocidad inicial.

a es la aceleración.

t es el tiempo medido en segundos.

Sustituyendo en la fórmula, tenemos;

$30 = 10 + a*10$

$30 = 10 + 10a$

$10a = 30 - 10$

$10a = 20$

$Aceleracion = \frac{20}{10}$

Aceleración, a = 2 m/s²

As 390 g of hot milk cools in a mug, it transfers 30,000 J of heat to the environment. What is the temperature change of the mil

kotykmax [81]

The correct answer is 19.72 °C. The first step is to determine the amount of heat that was lost per gram (30,000 J) / (390 g) = 76.92 J/g. Then to determine the temperature change, divide 76.92 J/g with the given specific heat of milk (76.92 J/g) / (3.9 J/g°C) = 19.72 °C.
