Answer:

2.4 m

Explanation:

Consider the motion along the vertical direction

y_{o} = initial position of ball above the ground = 4.5 m

t = time taken by the ball to hit the smokestack = 0.65 s

v_{oy} = initial velocity of the ball along vertical direction

a_{y} = acceleration due to gravity = - 9.8 m/s²

y = position of ball at the time of hitting the smokestack

Using the kinematics equation

y = y_{o} + v_{oy} t + (0.5) a_{y} t^{2}

inserting the above values

y = 4.5 + (0) (0.65) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (0.65)^{2} \\y = 2.4 m

Would you be doing more work going up the stairs twice as fast?
SSSSS [86.1K]
If you use the stairs at normal speed, you will survive longer, and go up higher.
When going up the stairs twice as fast, you lose energy more quickly, but height would remain the same.

A wave has a wavelength of 3.3 m and a speed of 5.6 m/s. What is the frequency of this wave
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: λ (wavelength) = 3.3 m →  ΔS = 3.3 m

v (speed) = 5.6 m/s → ΔV = 5.6 m/s

T (period) → ΔT = ?

f (frequency) = ?

If:

Now: (if, ΔT = T), Using the formula of the period of a wave, find the frequency:

1. Why is the theory that all things are made up of atoms a theory and not a fact?
steposvetlana [31]
Because there is no record of all things. As we have partially unknow information, it can never be held as a fact.
