If a 4.5 kg object is dropped from a height of 6.0 m, what will be its velocity when it is halfway toward the ground? (Use g = 9

.80 m/s2, and ignore air resistance.) 7.7 m/s 11 m/s 16 m/s 29 m/s

When an object falls or is dropped from rest it's initial velocity is zero.
Using the equations for a motion in straight line. I can find the time it takes to reach 3.0 m down (half way).
x = vt - 4.9t²
-3 = 0 - 4.9t²
-3/-4.9 = t²
0.6122 = t²
0.7825 sec = t

v = v - gt
v = 0 - 9.8(0.7825)
v = -7.67 m/s
the negative denotes downward direction.

You  could also solve the problem using potential and kinetic energy.

Since it starts with maximum PE and gets converted to KE when it hits the ground. mgh = mv²/2
mass cancels, use 3 meters for the halfway distance
-9.8(-3) = v²/2
29.4 * 2 = v²
√(58.8) = 7.67 m/s downwards

Which of the following is fact-based science rather than part of a personal belief system?
marusya05 [52]
Since there are no choices, then this question calls for open-ended answers. Facts-based science must have proven underlying laws that support inferences such as Coulomb's Law, Kinetic Theory of Matter and many more. On the other hand, examples of science that focus on personal belief is philosophy. This depends on the perspective of known philosophers. An example would be Sigmund Freud who proposed the theory of 3 personalities. Although it is more on personal beliefs, this is used as a foundation in the study of psychology.

1. Which of the following states would likely get hit by both hurricanes and tornadoes? (Points : 1)
bogdanovich [222]
I would have to say Texas because, obviously, its on the coast, and because I know for a fact Oklahoma is VERY prone to Tornadoes and I also know Dallas (and surrounding areas) has a few tornadoes a year:)

I hope I helped:)

The statement that best describes the production of energy in the Sun is nuclei with less mass combine to form nuclei with more mass in the Sun’s core and release energy.

<h3>How is energy produced in the sun?</h3>

Sun is a major source of renewable energy to the Earth. This energy serves various purposes by living organisms.

However, the energy is generated as a result of nuclear fusion, which is the combination of smaller particles to form a larger one.

Therefore, the statement that best describes the production of energy in the Sun is nuclei with less mass combine to form nuclei with more mass in the Sun’s core and release energy.

Please help! Calculate velocity. Show all work!
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

v = 23.66 m/s

Explanation:

recall that one of the equations of motion may be expressed:

v² = u² + 2as,

Where

v = final velocity (we are asked to find this)

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s since we are told that it starts from rest

a = acceleration = 0.56m/s²

s = distance traveled = given as 500m

Simply substitute the known values into the equation:

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2(0.56)(500)

v² = 560

v = √560

v = 23.66 m/s
