Answer:

14.2 m

Explanation:

Using conservation of energy:

PE at top = KE at bottom

mgh = ½ mv²

h = v² / (2g)

h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 14.2 m

Using kinematics:

Given:

v₀ = 16.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 14.2 m

How are traits influenced by the environment? (No links)

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Environmental factors influence traits in plants and animals. These traits include things like weight, height, size, and color. If a dog does not get proper nutrition and exercise, their weight will be negatively impacted. The dog is likely to be overweight if the environmental factors are not changed.

A car travels 300km in six hour. What is the average speed

KiRa [710]

Answer:

Explanation:

The average speed of the car can be found by using the formula

$s = \frac{d}{t} \\$

d is the distance

t is the time taken

From the question we have

$s = \frac{300}{6} = 50 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

Answer:

He could have many different hypothesis, but here is one.

Explanation:

If rubber bands are wider, then the rubber bands will stretch further, because the wider a rubber band is the stronger it is.

A marble resting near the edge of .90 m high table is given an initial horizontal speed of 1.24 m/s. What will be it’s horizonta

Maru [420]

Answer:

0.53 m

Explanation:

First of all, we have to consider the vertical motion of the ball, in order to find the time it takes for the marble to reach the ground. The initial height is $h=0.90 m$ , the initial vertical velocity is zero, while the acceleration is $g=-9.81 m/s^2$ , so the vertical position at time t is given by

$y(t)=h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

By demanding y(t)=0, we find the time t at which the ball reaches the ground:

$0=h-\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(0.9 m)}{9.81 m/s^2}}=0.43 s$

Now we can find the horizontal range of the marble: we know the initial horizontal speed (v=1.24 m/s), we know the total time of the motion (t=0.43 s), and since the horizontal speed is constant, the total distance traveled on the horizontal direction is

$x=vt=(1.24 m/s)(0.43 s)=0.53 m$
