Answer:

The easiest way to do this is to realize that the time to fall is the same as the rise time (conservation of energy can easily verify this)

S = 1/2 g t^2      time to fall 2.5 m

t = (5 / 9.8)^1.2 = .714 sec         time in air

v = a t = 9.8 * .714 = 7 m/s     initial vertical speed

Check:

S = v t - 1/2 g t^2       where v is the initial vertical speed

S = 7 * .714 - 4.9 * .714^2 = 2.5 m        total vertical distance traveled

Karla Ayala pulls a sled on an icy road (dangerous!). Because of Karla's pull, the tension force is 151 N, and the rope makes a
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ

Explanation:

In order to find the work done by the pull force applied by Karla, we need to can use the formula of work done. This formula tells us that work done on a body is the product of the distance covered by the object with the component of force applied in the direction of that displacement:

W = F.d

W = Fd Cosθ

where,

W = Work Done = ?

F = Force = 151 N

d = distance covered = 10 m

θ = Angle with horizontal = 20°

Therefore,

W = (151 N)(10 m) Cos 20°

<u>W = 1418.9 J = 1.418 KJ</u>

Which properties of a lava lamp are important to remember when modeling convection?
Luba_88 [7]
Important thing when making a lava lamp are the two liquids with different density so that it would not mix and that it would expand when heated. The movement of the orange liquid is called convection. if you will not heat the orange one, it till just stay on the stop and not go under tha water.

a place that is typically cold because of an increase in altitude would most likely have what type of climate? dry climate mild
Marta_Voda [28]
A place that is cold because of an increase in altitude has a mountain area climate or simply, mountain climate. An area that is high in altitude typically has a colder temperature because of the increased amount of rainfall they have. Also, air tends to cool as it rises in temperature.
