8 0

G = 9.81 m/sec^2) g = 9.81 $\frac{meters}{ second^{2} }$

Solving for velocity : 

$velocity^{2}$ = 2gh 
v = $2gh^{ \frac{1}{2} }$
v = (2 x 9.81 x 10)^1/2 
v = 196.2 m/sec (answer)

dlinn [17]

Answer:

a) 0.0007326

b) 0.03223

c) 0.2418

d) 0.2418

Explanation:

To find different probabilities for the selection of components among eleven good and four defective components, we will use the Combination.

a) $C(4,4) = 1; C(15,4) = 1365$

$P = \frac{C(4,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{1}{1365} = 0.0007326$

b) $C(4,3) = 4; C(11,1) = 11$

$P = \frac{C(4,3)*C(11,1)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{4*11}{1365} = 0.03223$

c) $C(4,2) = 6; C(11,2) = 55$

$P = \frac{C(4,2)*C(11,2)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{6*55}{1365} = 0.2418$

d) $C(11,4) = 330$

$P = \frac{C(11,4)}{C(15,4)} = \frac{330}{1365} = 0.2418$

Grace [21]

The correct answer is: Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)

Explanation:
In simple words, CFCs are the chemical compounds made up of the following three elements:
1. Carbon
2. Chlorine
3. Fluorine

When CFCs compounds reach the upper atmosphere, the ultraviolet rays coming from the Sun break those compounds into individual elements, which then react with one of the oxygen atom of the ozone (O3) to form new compounds like chlorine monoxides. That way the ozone molecules get destroyed, resulting into the ozone depletion. Hence, the correct answer is Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).
