Answer: d. 5 m/s^2

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity in a given time.

a = (30-20)/2 = 5

The ball is travelling in horizontal direction with an acceleration of \bold{5\ m/ s^{2}}

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

The rate at which velocity of an object changes is acceleration i.e., if the velocity of an object is changing, the object is accelerating. The unit of measurement of acceleration is Meter per Seconds Square. Acceleration is the derivative of the changing velocity wrt to time,

a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}-----{Eqn} 1

Given,  

Initial velocity = 20 m/s (v_{i})  

Final velocity = 30 m/s (v_{f})

Initial time = 0 s (t_{i})

Final time = 2 s (t_{f})

From the equation 1,

\begin{aligned} a &=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\frac{v_{f}-v_{i}}{t_{f}-t_{i}} \\ a &=\frac{30 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}-20 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}}{2 \mathrm{s}}=5 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2} \end{aligned}

Hence, the acceleration of ball moving horizontally is \bold{5\ m/s^{2}}

Answer:

C. Fill two identical pots with equal volumes of salt water and tap water and use a stopwatch to determine the time it takes each pot to boil.

Explanation:

<u>A) is incorrect</u> because Peter should have the same testing environment for both of his experiments.

He should choose the same method of boiling the salt water and tap water because the stovetop and the microwave could also affect the results and make them unreliable.

<u>B) is incorrect</u> because Peter should not estimate the time it takes the salt water and tap water to boil.

Peter should measure and record the amount of time that it takes these substances to boil in order to have an accurate, valid experimental thesis.

<u>C) is correct</u> because Peter uses the same volume of salt water and tap water, fills them into two identical pots, and uses a stopwatch to determine the amount of time it takes each pot to boil.

The stopwatch makes the experiment more valid and accurate compared to the previous methods, and the identical pots and amounts of water help this experiment become even more precise.

<u>D) is incorrect</u> because the variables in the experiment are not controlled amounts and will therefore produce an inaccurate and invalid experiment.

OlgaM077 [116]
The IRB at the university will decide whether her study meets ethical guidelines before it is initiated. The importance of these codes of conduct is to safeguard research participants, the status of psychology and the researchers or psychologists themselves. Moral issues hardly yield a simple, unequivocal, right or wrong answer. It is consequently often a matter of judgment whether the research is justified or not. For instance, it might be that a study roots psychological or physical uneasiness to participants, maybe they agonize pain or maybe even come to solemn harm.

Sunshine Corporation is expected to pay a dividend of $1.50 in the upcoming year. Dividends are expected to grow at the rate of
grigory [225]

Answer:

$25

Explanation:

The computation of the intrinsic value of the stock is shown below:

As we know that

Intrinsic value or Price = Dividend ÷ (Cost of equity - growth rate)

where,

Cost of equity or ke  is

= Risk free rate of return  + beta × (Market rate of return - risk free rate of return)

= 6% + 0.75 × (14% - 6%)

= 12 %

So the intrinsic value is

= $1.50 ÷ (12% - 6%)

= $25
