20.4 years is 20.4/10.2 = 2 half-life cycles, which means a quarter of the starting mass or 15.2 g will remain after this time.

A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 m/s. What is the total mechanical energy of
Wewaii [24]
Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J

not all objects have a volume that is measured easily. If you were to determine the mass, volume, and density of your textbook,
Maslowich

Text book: We can measure the mass of the text book easily by weighing machine, to measure the volume we need to measure the length, width, and height of the text book by the ruler, by multiplying these dimension we can get the volume of the text book, and by dividing the mass of the book with its volume we can get the density of the book.

Milk Container: We can measure the mass of the milk container easily by weighing machine, now (assuming the milk container is cylindrical in shape) we need to measure its height, and and diameter and by the formula (π*r^2*h) we can measure its volume, and and by dividing the mass  with its volume we can get the density of the milk container.

Air filled balloon: we can measure the mass of the air filled balloon by weighing it weight machine, we know that the density of air is 28.97 kg/m^3, by dividing the mass of the balloon with the denisty of air we can get the volume of the balloon.

If a football player collides with a goal post, what forces are at work?
AlekseyPX
When a footballer collides with the goal post, the forces at work are the action and reaction forces. The player will exert an action force on the goal post, and then a reaction force from the goal post will stop the player. The reaction force call will cause pain and even injury to the player.

A driver notices an upcoming speed limit change from 45 mi/h (20 m/s) to 25 mi/h (11 m/s). If she estimates
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

-2.79 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 20 m/s

v = 11 m/s

Δx = 50 m

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(11 m/s)² = (20 m/s)² + 2a (50 m)

a = -2.79 m/s²

Round as needed.
