<em>The correct answer is option</em><em> B.</em> The maximum height that can be reached by the stone is determined as 11.5 m.

<h3>Maximum height attained by the stone </h3>

The maximum height attained by the stone when it is a 2/3 of its total height is calculated as follows;

v² = u² - 2gh

where;

  • v is final velocity at maximum height, v = 0
  • u is initial velocity
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

0 =  u² - 2gh

2gh =  u²

h =  u²/2g

h = (15²)/(2 x 9.8)

h = 11.48 m

h = 11.5 m

Thus, the maximum height that can be reached by the stone is determined as 11.5 m

A girl runs 40m due south in 40 seconds an d then 20m due north in 10 secondsCalculate.
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Average speed = 1.2 m/s

Average velocity = 0.4 m/s

Explanation:

Average speed = total distance/total time

Average speed = (40 + 20)/(40 + 10)

Average speed = 60/50

Average speed = 1.2 m/s

Average velocity = displacement/time

Now, she ran 40 m south and ran 20 m back north which is in the direction of where she began the journey.

Thus;

Displacement = 40 - 20 = 20 m

Average velocity = 20/50 = 0.4 m/s

on a Powerline birds can enjoy sitting from one live wire to the other. However,if a person touches it,then the person will die
Alika [10]

Answer:

Due to potential difference (elaborated in explanation)

Explanation:

When a bird sits on a power line, its whole body is in contact with the power line. It does not have any contact with the ground or anything at a lower potential. Hence, the current does not flow through the bird's body, because there is no potential difference available as a driving force.

Now, when a person touches the power line his hand is at a higher potential provided by the power line, while the rest of his body is connected to the ground, usually through legs. The current always looks for a path from high potential to low potential. Therefore, the body of the person serves as the path for the current. Heavy current flows through the body and the person dies within split seconds.

What is dispersion, and how is it related to diffraction and refraction?
iragen [17]
Refraction is simply the bending of light when it moves from one material into another. If light is beamed at 90° to a surface, no bending happens. But if you shine the light at an angle it will bend one way or another.
   
    Diffraction is a process in which a beam of light travels through a gap or around a barrier, and spreads out as a result.

<span>   Dispersion is the property that the speed of light in a transparent material is different for different wavelengths. Thus the index of refraction is likewise different.</span>
