There are many ways to solve this but I prefer to use the energy method. Calculate the potential energy using the point then from Potential Energy convert to Kinetic Energy at each points.

PE = KE

From the given points (h1 = 45, h2 = 16, h<span>3  </span>= 26)

Let’s use the formula: 

v2= sqrt[2*Gravity*h1]  where the gravity is equal to 9.81m/s2

v3= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 - h3 )] where the gravity is equal to 9.81m/s2

v4= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 – h2)] where the gravity is equal to 9.81m/s2

Solve for v2

v2= sqrt[2*Gravity*h1]      

    = √2*9.81m/s2*45m

v2= 29.71m/s

v3= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 - h3 )   

    =√2*9.81m/s2*(45-26)

    =√2*9.81m/s2*19 

v3=19.31m/s

v4= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 – h2)]        

    =√2*9.81m/s2*(45-16)

    =√2*9.81m/s2*(29)

v4=23.85m/s

How does the balloon react to the cloth item?
almond37 [142]

Answer: When rubbing a balloon with a wool cloth, it puts negative charges on the balloon. Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon.

For adults, the RDA of the amino acid lysine is 12 mg per kg of body weight. How many grams per day should a 78kg adult receive?
kari74 [83]
RDA stands for Recommended Daily Allowance. To determine the amount needed of a certain adult per day, we simply multiply the mass of the adult to the value of RDA. For this case, we do as follows:

Daily requirement = 12 mg/kg ( 78 kg ) = 936 mg of lysine = 936000 g

Use the terms "force", "weight", "mass", and "inertia" to explain why it is easier to tackle a 220 lb football player than a 288
Tomtit [17]
<span><u>Answer </u>
The mass of 220 lb football has less than 288 lb football. So, it will be easier to move it since it will require less force. The heavy football will have a bigger momentum. Since 288 lb has more weight than 220 lb, it will have bigger inertia making it difficult for the players to stop it.
This makes it easier to tackle 220 lb football than 288 lb football.
