In the first direct detection of gravitational waves by LIGO in 2015, the waves came from the merger of two black holes. Option B is correct. This is further explained below.
<h3>What are gravitational waves?</h3>
A gravitational wave is simply defined as a ripple in space that is unseen though extremely rapid. Gravitational waves move at light speed. As they pass past, these waves compress and stretch everything in their path.
In conclusion, the merger of two black holes is the first direct detection of gravitational waves.

Answer: The height above the release point is 2.96 meters.
Explanation:
The acceleration of the ball is the gravitational acceleration in the y axis.
A = (0, -9.8m/s^)
For the velocity we can integrate over time and get:
V(t) = (9.20m/s*cos(69°), -9.8m/s^2*t + 9.20m/s^2*sin(69°))
for the position we can integrate it again over time, but this time we do not have any integration constant because the initial position of the ball will be (0,0)
P(t) = (9.20*cos(69°)*t, -4.9m/s^2*t^2 + 9.20m/s^2*sin(69°)*t)
now, the time at wich the horizontal displacement is 4.22 m will be:
4.22m = 9.20*cos(69°)*t
t = (4.22/ 9.20*cos(69°)) = 1.28s
Now we evaluate the y-position in this time:
h = -4.9m/s^2*(1.28s)^2 + 9.20m/s^2*sin(69°)*1.28s = 2.96m
The height above the release point is 2.96 meters.
On a roller coaster, the greatest potential energy is at the highest point of the roller coaster
Answer:
no where is the main part of the question dude
Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2
Step by step:
Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.
Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.
The total energy at the point h=2m is:
The total energy at the point h=0m is:
The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:
