Answer:

Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

Final Velocity = 34.6 m/s

time = 3.5 s

Explanation:

The initial velocity must be zero since, the egg must be at rest initially, before dropping.

<u>Initial Velocity = 0 m/s</u>

Now, for time we use 2nd equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

where,

h = Height = 61 m

Vi = Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

g = 9.8 m/s²

t =time = ?

Therefore,

61 m = (0 m/s)(t) + (1/2)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = (61 m)(2)/(9.8 m/s²)

t = √(12.45 s²)

Now, for final velocity we will use 1st equation of motion:

Vf = Vi + gt

Vf = 0 m/s + (9.8 m/s²)(3.5 s)

Vf = 34.6 m/s

andriy [413]

The bottleneck event of the plants in an area results in secondary succession.

<h2>What is bottleneck event?</h2>

A bottleneck is an event that drastically reduces the population size of an organism. The bottleneck may be caused by various events, such as an environmental disaster, the hunting or habitat destruction that results in the deaths of organisms.

<h3>Secondary succession</h3>

Secondary succession is a type of ecological succession in which plants and animals recolonize a habitat after a major disturbance such as a devastating flood, wildfire, landslide, lava flow, or human activity e.g., farming or road or building construction.

620 J of heat is added to the cylinder of an engine, which causes the gas inside to expand. As a result, the piston of the engin

Maru [420]

Answer:

<u>400</u> J work is done BY the engine.

The internal energy of the gas is <u>620</u> J

Explanation:

The given information are;

The heat added to the cylinder = 620 J

The force applied by the piston of the engine = 8.0 kN = 8,000 N

The distance over which the force moves (the piston) = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m

The work done (by the engine) = Force × Distance = 8,000 N × 0.05 m = 400 J

The internal energy is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the system

Therefore, given that the internal energy, U, is the sum total of the energy in the system

∴ U = The heat supplied to the system = 620 J

Which gives;

<u>400</u> J work is done BY the engine.

The internal energy of the gas is <u>620</u> J.

What happens when you get a concussion?

madreJ [45]

A concussion, which is a form of mild traumatic brain injury, occurs after a blow to the head. The brain is surrounded by fluid and protective membranes called meninges, which usually cushion the brain. During an impact, the brain is pushed against the inside of the skull and can be bruised.
