<h2>Answer: 12 s</h2>

Explanation:

The situation described here is parabolic movement. However, as we are told <u>the instrument is thrown upward</u> from the surface, we will only use the equations related to the Y axis.

In this sense, the main movement equation in the Y axis is:

y-y_{o}=V_{o}.t-\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (1)

Where:

y  is the instrument's final position  

y_{o}=0  is the instrument's initial position

V_{o}=15m/s is the instrument's initial velocity

t is the time the parabolic movement lasts

g=2.5\frac{m}{s^{2}}  is the acceleration due to gravity at the surface of planet X.

As we know y_{o}=0  and y=0 when the object hits the ground, equation (1) is rewritten as:

0=V_{o}.t-\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2}    (2)

Finding t:

0=t(V_{o}-\frac{1}{2}g.t^{2})   (3)

t=\frac{2V_{o}}{g}   (4)

t=\frac{2(15m/s)}{2.5\frac{m}{s^{2}}}   (5)

Finally:

t=12s

Tin shear have longer handles than than the scissor used to cut cloth give reason​
natka813 [3]

Answer:

For scissor, small movement at effort(at handle) should make long movement of load arm , so that it can cut longer lengths of cloth/paper. Hence blades are longer than handle.so its handle(load arm) is made longer than its blades.

a) True

Explanation:

A program-specific message provided to an individual or group with the intention of raising awareness of a health condition, motivating behavior change, removing perceived barriers to participating in a health habit, or something else relating to the program's aims and objectives. The most effective intervention messages are usually theory-based and culturally adapted.
