Answer:4.93 m/s

Explanation:

Given

height to reach is (h )1.24 m

here Let initial velocity is u

using equation of motion

v^2-u^2=2ah

here Final Velocity v=0

a=acceleration due to gravity

0-u^2=2\left ( -g\right )h

u=\sqrt{2gh}

u=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 1.24}

u=\sqrt{24.328}

u=4.93 m/s

How many calories are needed to raise the temperature of 2g of water 3 C?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The number of calories needed is 6c.

Explanation:

The amount of energy Q needed to raise the temperature \Delta T of water of mass m is

Q = mC\Delta T

where C = 1cal/g\cdot C is the specific heat capacity of water.

Putting in numbers into equation (1), we get:

Q = (2g)(1)(3^oC )\\

\boxed{Q = 6\:cal }

which is the number of calories needed.

What do electrons in the same shell have in common? AThey have the same amount of energy incorrect answer BThey are all positive
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

They have the same amount of energy

Explanation:

Electrons are said to be the subatomic particles that move around the nucleus of an atom. These electrons are negatively charged particles that are seen to be quite smaller than the nucleus of an atom.  

The electron shells of these atoms are usually being filled from the inside out with the low-energy shells closer to the nucleus being filled before they can go into the much higher-energy shells that are a bit out

why can light from the sun cause skin cancer but the light from a light bulb cannot cause skin cancer?
meriva

Answer:

Damage from UV exposure is cumulative and increases your skin cancer risk over time. While your body can repair some of the DNA damage in skin cells, it can't repair all of it. The unrepaired damage builds up over time and triggers mutations that cause skin cells to multiply rapidly. That can lead to malignant tumors.

How are weather from ice and plants different from weathering from wind and water?
DENIUS [597]
“Weathering is the breaking down of rocks, soil and minerals as well as wood and artificial materials through contact with the Earth’s atmosphere, biota and waters. Weathering occurs in situ, roughly translated to: “with no movement”, and thus should not be confused with erosion, which involves the movement of rocks and minerals by agents such as water, ice, snow, wind, waves and gravity and then being transported and deposited in other locations.”

Weathering processes are of three main types: mechanical, organic and chemical weathering.
