The best rock is D because it is big and heavy out of all of them. Rock A would fling too far because it is the lightest of all rocks as shown.

B and C would probably fling through the target because it is just the right size.

Besides, Depending on their weight of each rock, rock D is heavy because it is big. Rock A is too light to fling or land on the target. This is my hypothesis.

I don't really get how would rock D be the best one, but upon your question, this is all i know.

Thank you for posting your question, hope this helps, have a great day. please mark brainliest so i can answer more of your questions.

Dominik [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

s = 50 t^2

Differentiate both sides with respect to t

ds/dt = 50 x 2 t

ds/dt = 100 t

Substitute t = 10 second

ds/dt = 100 x 10

ds/dt = 1000 m/s

thus, the rate of change of elevation is 1000 m/s.

Figure 23.9 shows a sliding mass on a spring. Assume there is no friction.

Tom [10]

<span>Without friction, there will be undamped simple harmonic motion. The force of the spring is proportional to the distance from the equilibrium point. The period of oscillation will be independent of the amplitude.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!</span>

Advocard [28]

Complete question:

A fireman of mass 80 kg slides down a pole. When he reaches the bottom, 4.2 m below his starting point, his speed is 2.2 m/s. By how much has thermal energy increased during his slide?

Answer:

The thermal energy increased by 3,099.2 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the fireman, m = 80 kg

initial position of the fireman, hi = 4.2 m

final speed, v = 2.2 m/s

The change in the thermal energy is calculated as;

ΔE + (K.Ef - K.Ei) + (Uf - Ui) = 0

where;

ΔE is the change in the thermal energy

K.Ef is the final kinetic energy

K.Ei is the initial kinetic energy

Uf is the final potential energy

Ui is the initial potential energy

$\Delta E_{th} + (\frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2} mv_i^2) + (mgh_f - mgh_i)=0\\\\initial \ velocity, \ v_i = 0\\final \ height , \ h_f = o\\\\\Delta E_{th} + (\frac{1}{2} mv_f^2) + ( - mgh_i)=0\\\\\Delta E_{th} + \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2 - mgh_i = 0\\\\\Delta E_{th} =mgh_i - \frac{1}{2} mv_f^2\\\\\Delta E_{th} = 80 \times 9.8 \times 4.2 \ \ - \ \ \frac{1}{2} \times 80 \times (2.2)^2 \\\\\Delta E_{th} = 3292.8 \ J \ - \ 193.6 \ J\\\\\Delta E_{th} = 3,099.2 \ J$
