Answer:c

Explanation:

Given

Alice launches with horizontal velocity u=25\ m/s

Tom simply drops straight down from the edge

Time taken by both the person is same as they have same initial vertical velocity i.e. zero so the time taken to reach the ground is zero.

Although Alice will travel more horizontal distance compared to Tom.

Thus option c is correct

A 25N force is applied to a bar that can pivot around its end. The force is r=0.75 m away from the end of an angle at 0= 30. wha
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

<h2>9.375Nm</h2>

Explanation:

The formula for calculating torque τ = Frsin∅ where;

F = applied force (in newton)

r = radius (in metres)

∅ = angle that the force made with the bar.

Given  F= 25N, r = 0.75m and ∅ = 30°

torque on the bar τ  = 25*0.75*sin30°

τ = 25*0.75*0.5

τ = 9.375Nm

The torque on the bar is 9.375Nm

Which fossil fuel is produced as a by-product that occurs when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions?
Mumz [18]

Bio-gas is the naturally produced fossil fuel, a by-product when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Organic matter particularly waste material is broken down by bacteria through fermentation in an environmental condition without any presence of oxygen. This process of decomposition leads to formation of bio-gas with "carbon dioxide and methane" in a 2:3 ratio.

The above biological process is termed as bio-digestion or anaerobic digestion. Methane is flammable and thus bio-gas can be used as "energy source", a waste-to-energy transformation. The remaining decomposed matter is ideal as manure for plants due to its rich nutrient level.
