Answer:

B) 225 m/s^2

Explanation:

The rock hits the ground at 15m/s and travels 50cm=0.5m through the ground until it stops.

The acceleration is supposed to be uniform, so the formula we have to use is v^2=v_0^2+2ad, which for acceleration is:

a=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2d}

Taking the <em>downwards direction as positive</em> (the direction of traveling, so the initial velocity and displacement will be positive), substituting our values for that movement we have:

a=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2d}=\frac{(0m/s)^2-(15m/s)^2}{2(0.5m)}=-255m/s^2

Where the <em>negative sign indicates that it is pointing upwards.</em>

Is energy released or absorbed during the formation of a solution?
kodGreya [7K]
Energy can be released and absorbed during the formation of a solution, not one or the other. When a solute interacts with the solvent, energy is absorbed so the solvent can overcome the intermolecular bonds of the solute and energy is released, most commonly, in the form of heat, light, or a gaseous byproduct.
