The minimum initial velocity that the ball must have for it to reach the top of the hill is 21 m/s. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time.

M.E = KE +PE

A boy is trying to roll a bowling ball up a hill. The friction is ignored.  The ball must have to reach the top of the hill with a velocity. The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The conservation of energy principle states that total mechanical energy remains conserved in all situations where there is no external force acting on the system.

M.E bottom of hill = M.E on top of hill

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Kinetic energy  + Potential energy

1/2 mu² + 0 =  0 + mgh

At the top of hill, the velocity will become zero. So, final kinetic energy is zero.

Substituting the values, we have

1/2 x u² = 9.8 x 22.5

u = sqrt [2 x9.8 x 22.5 ]

u= 21 m/s

Thus, the minimum initial velocity that the ball must have for it to reach the top of the hill is 21 m/s.

Unpolarized light with intensity I0I0I_0 is incident on an ideal polarizing filter. The emerging light strikes a second ideal po
zvonat [6]

Answer:

0.293I_0

Explanation:

When the unpolarized light passes through the first polarizer, only the component of the light parallel to the axis of the polarizer passes through.

Therefore, after the first polarizer, the intensity of light passing through it is halved, so the intensity after the first polarizer is:

I_1=\frac{I_0}{2}

Then, the light passes through the second polarizer. In this case, the intensity of the light passing through the 2nd polarizer is given by Malus' law:

I_2=I_1 cos^2 \theta

where

\theta is the angle between the axes of the two polarizer

Here we have

\theta=40^{\circ}

So the intensity after the 2nd polarizer is

I_2=I_1 (cos 40^{\circ})^2=0.587I_1

And substituting the expression for I1, we find:

I_2=0.587 (\frac{I_0}{2})=0.293I_0

Which of these experiments tests a chemical property of an object??
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
<span>B. shining a bright light on the objects and testing for decomposition </span> <span>      

In explanation, chemical property is a characteristic of a certain substance came from an outcome due to chemical change or reaction. In the situation above, more specifically toxicity is involved in the chemical property/change. Hence, when the object is tested for decomposition. Like for an example of decomposition simply in metals, rusting. Rusting a process of degeneration of metals. Here it works the same. Toxicity is how much damage did a certain entity do to the object. </span>

Un atleta de 70 kg de masa que ha efectuado un salto de altura cae una vez que ha
Allushta [10]

Answer:

a) the elastic force of the pole directed upwards and the force of gravity with dissects downwards

Explanation:

The forces on the athlete are

a) at this moment the athlete presses the garrolla against the floor, therefore it acquires a lot of elastic energy, which is absorbed by the athlete to rise and gain potential energy,

therefore the forces are the elastic force of the pole directed upwards and the force of gravity with dissects downwards

b) when it falls, in this case the only force to act is batrachium by the planet, this is a projectile movement for very high angles

c) When it reaches the floor, it receives an impulse that opposes the movement created by the mat. The attractive force is the attraction of gravity.
