Answer:

<em> The elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

Explanation:

potential energy: This is the energy possessed by a body due to its position. The S.I unit of energy is Joules. The mathematical expression for elastic potential energy is given below

E = 1/2ke²................ Equation 1

Where E = elastic potential energy of the spring, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension

<em>Given: K = 10 N/m, e = 2.00 m</em>

<em>Substituting these values into Equation 1</em>

<em>E = 1/2(10)(2)²</em>

<em>E = 5×4</em>

<em>E = 20 Joules.</em>

<em>Therefore the elastic potential energy stored in the bungee cord = 20 J</em>

How are chromosomes, genes and inheritance related
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

These two copies of the gene contained in your chromosomes influence the way your cells work. The two alleles in a gene pair are inherited, one from each parent. Alleles interact with each other in different ways. These are called inheritance patterns.

A parachutist falls 50.0 m without friction. When the parachute opens, he slows down at a rate of 61 m/s^2. If he reaches the gr
ira [324]

Answer:

55.66 m

Explanation:

While falling by 50 m , initial velocity u = 0

final velocity = v , height h = 50 , acceleration g = 9.8

v² = u² + 2gh

= 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 50

v = 31.3 m /s

After that deceleration comes into effect

In this case final velocity v = 17 m/s

initial velocity u = 31.3 m/s

acceleration a = - 61 m/s²

distance traveled h = ?

v² = u² + 2gh

(17)² = (31.3)² - 2x 61xh

h = 690.69 / 2 x 61

= 5.66 m

Total height during which he was in air

= 50 + 5.66

= 55.66 m

Light travels from the sun to the earth, a distance of 144,000,000,000 meters, in 480 seconds. Calculate the approximate velocit
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

The answer is C.) 300,000,000 m/s

Explanation:

Light travels at a constant rate of 300,000,000 m/s. this can be determined by dividing the distance (144,000,000,000 meters) by the time (480 seconds). that's pretty fast. in fact, nothing can travel any faster than this. ever.
