You drop a rock off the top of a building. It takes 4.5 s to hit the ground. How tall is

Since the rock as been dropped off the building you can assume that initial velocity equals 0m/s.

t=4.5s
acceleration due to gravity=9.8m/s^2

s=ut+1/2at^2

Since u=0, s=1/2at^2

s=1/2(9.8)(4.5)^
s=99.225m

At an accident scene on a level road, investigators measure a car’s skid mark to be 88 m long. The accident occurred on a rainy
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The the speed of the car is 26.91 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

distance d = 88 m

Kinetic friction = 0.42

We need to calculate the the speed of the car

Using  the work-energy principle

work done = change in kinetic energy

W=\Delta K.E

\mu\ mg\times d=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v^2=2\mu g d

Put the value into the formula

v=\sqrt{2\times0.42\times9.8\times88}

v=26.91\ m/s

Hence, The the speed of the car is 26.91 m/s.

Which is a scalar quantity displacement distance force acceleration​
cestrela7 [59]

A scalar is a quantity that is fully described by a magnitude only. It is described by just a single number. Some examples of scalar quantities include speed, volume, mass, temperature, power, energy, and time. A vector is a quantity that has both a magnitude and a direction.

I hope this helps you.

which process was found after wegeners time, helped scientists find out how the continents actually move.
Genrish500 [490]
I don't quite know what you're asking so I'll just go on a rant :) Wegener created and supported the continental drift theory, which stated that all of the continents once formed a super continent called Pangea. No one at the time believed in the theory though so he spent the rest of his life trying to find evidence to prove it. However, after he died scientists began to find information that supported his theory. When scientists began to study Earth's surface and the layers below, the theory of the tectonic plates was formed. This theory stated that Earth's crust, the lithosphere, was divided into twelve moving plates. This theory did in fact prove that Wegener's theory was correct. Another theory that proved Wegener's theory to be true was the process of Sea Floor Spreading. This theory stated that at divergent plate boundaries, new ocean floor was being created and the old was being pushed away from the boundary, the old sea floor would then be pushed to deep sea trenches created by convergent plate boundaries and essentially recycled back into the Earth. I hope this helped, sorry it is so long :)
