Answer:

Explanation:

a = - 32 ft/s²

h = 550 ft

Let the initial velocity is u. The velocity at maximum height is zero.

use third equation of motion

v² = u² + 2 a h

0 = u² -  2 x 32 x 550

u² = 35200

u = 187.62 ft/s

Answer:

u= 187.61 ft/s

Explanation:

Given that

g= - 32 ft/s²

The maximum height ,h= 550 ft

Lets take the initial velocity = u ft/s

We know that

v²=u² + 2 g s

v=final speed ,u=initial speed ,s=height

When the object reach at the maximum height then the final speed of the object will become zero.

That is why

u²= 2 x 32 x 550

u²= 35200

u= 187.61 ft/s

That is why the initial speed will be 187.61 ft/s

At what temperature (degrees Fahrenheit) is the Fahrenheit scale reading equal to (a) 2 times that of the Celsius and (b) 1/4 ti
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

(a) F = 320

(b) = F = -5.1625

Explanation:

The formula that converts degree Celsius (C) to degree Fahrenheit (F) is:

F = 1.8C + 32

Solving (a): F = 2C

Substitute 2C for F in the above equation

F = 1.8C + 32

2C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

2C - 1.8C = 32

0.2C = 32

Multiply both sides by 5

5 * 0.2C = 32 * 5

C = 160

Recall that F = 2C

F = 2 * 160

F = 320

Solving (b): F = ¼C

Substitute ¼C for F in the above formula

F = 1.8C + 32

¼C = 1.8C + 32

Convert fraction to decimal

0.25C = 1.8C + 32

Collect like terms

0.25C - 1.8C = 32

-1.55C = 32

Divide both sides by -1.55

C = 32/(-1.55)

C = -32/1.55

C = -20.65

Recall that: F = ¼C

F = -¼ * 20.65

F = -5.1625

A dog walks 12 meters to the east and then 16 meters back to the west for this motion what is the distance moved What is the mag
FinnZ [79.3K]

The distance is 28 meters, and the displacement is -4.

For the distance it would be 12 + 16 = 28.

For the displacement it would be 12 - 16 = -4.

would really appreciate a brainliest! Hope this helped!

23) A high school website directs parents to not allow student access to blue laser pointers or allow the students to bring them
vekshin1
Mainly because of the higher energy of blue light than red light.

In fact, light is made of photons, each one carrying an energy equal to
E=hf
where h is the Planck constant while f is the frequency of the light.
The frequency of red light is approximately 450 THz, while the frequency of blue light is about 650 Hz. Higher frequency means higher energy, so blue light is more energetic than red light and therefore it can cause more damages than red light.
