Potential energy is mass * gravity * height. (m*g*h).
350 = 17*9.8*h <--350 is its energy, 17kg is its mass, and 9.8 is gravity's acceleration on the object. We now just need to solve for h.
h = 350/(17 * 9.8) = 2.1 meters, which, when rounded to the nearest whole meter, is 2 meters.
The shelf is 2 meters high.
Answer:
D. Calculate the area under the graph.
Explanation:
The distance made during a particular period of time is calculated as (distance in m) = (velocity in m/s) * (time in s)
You can think of such a calculation as determining the area of a rectangle whose sides are velocity and time period. If you make the time period very very small, the rectangle will become a narrow "bar" - a bar with height determined by the average velocity during that corresponding short period of time. The area is, again, the distance made during that time. Now, you can cover the entire area under the curve using such narrow bars. Their areas adds up, approximately, to the total distance made over the entire span of motion. From this you can already see why the answer D is the correct one.
Going even further, one can make the rectangular bars arbitrarily narrow and cover the area under the curve with more and more of these. In fact, in the limit, this is something called a Riemann sum and leads to the definition of the Riemann integral. Using calculus, the area under a curve (hence the distance in this case) can be calculated precisely, under certain existence criteria.
Answer:
Nebulae contribute more to stellar formation than other regions because:
Explanation:
A.They have an unlimited supply of hydrogen.
B. They are believed to be rich in hydrogen and helium.
C. They have a three strong gravitational pull.
This are the reasons that Nebulae contribute more to stellar formation than other regions.
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
B. the rotation of Earth on its axis
<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
- <em><u>The Coriolis effect describes how the Earth's rotation steers winds and surface ocean currents. The Coriolis effect causes the motion of a freely moving object to appear as a curve.</u></em>
- <em><u>Therefore, since air and water move freely, the Coriolis effect makes their movement to be curved. This is why the movement of winds and oceans does not follow a straight line but it is bent and curved.</u></em>
