Explanation:
Always behave responsibly in the laboratory. Do not run around or play practical jokes. Always check the safety data of any chemicals you are going to use. Never smell, taste or touch chemicals unless instructed to do so.
If someone is underground, then therefore there is less planet/ground underneath them, so there would be less gravity. Gravity directly affects weight.
Divide the distance traveled by the time it took:
(100 m) / (4.2 s) ≈ 23.8 m/s
Do you remember this formula for the distance traveled while accelerated ?
<u>Distance = (initial speed) x (t) plus (1/2) x (acceleration) x (t²)</u>
I think this is exactly what we need for this problem.
initial speed = 20 m/s down
acceleration = 9.81 m/s² down
t = 3.0 seconds
Distance down = (20) x (3) plus (1/2) x (9.81) x (3)²
Distance = (60) plus (4.905) x (9)
Distance = (60) plus (44.145) = 104.145 meters
Choice <em>D)</em> is the closest one.
Hope this helps !?!!!!!!!!!!!!
