Answer:

17.69 m

Explanation:

The time it takes the brick to strike the ground is 1.90 seconds.

We can apply one of Newton's equation of linear motion to find the height of the building:

s = ut + 0.5gt^2

where s = distance (in this case height)

u = initial velocity = 0 m/s

t = time = 1.90 s

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s^2

Therefore:

s = (0 * 1.9) + (0.5 * 9.8 * 1.9 * 1.9)

s = 0 + 17.68

s = 17.69 m

The height of the building is 17.69 m.

What is the diameter of a circle
aalyn [17]
A diameter is a straight line that begins at one end of the circle and ends at the opposite end. The condition for a line to be a diameter is that it must pass through the centre of the circle. If a line that touches two points on the circle, does not pass from the centre of the circle, it cannot be called a diameter.
The length of the diameter is the measurement of the line that connects the two points of the circle.

Explain how levitt and dubner’s argument effectively uses logical
faltersainse [42]

Explanation:

Levitt and Dubner’s argument effectively uses logical, concrete evidence to arrive at conclusions about morality and cheating practices.the realities they present about sumo and the bagel business Their utilization of factual evidence in various illustrations shows morality and cheating practices are more common in high incentive situations where telling lies or an act of fooling people was rewarded awesomely. They use statistical evidence and different examples support the fact that Levitt and Dubner have arrived at a generalisation on moral grounds.

For a certain interval of time, an object is acted on by a constant non-zero force. Which of the following statements is true fo
aleksklad [387]

For a certain interval of time, an object is acted on by a constant non-zero force. For this interval of time . . . . .

A. The object is at rest.  No. From F=ma, if F is not zero, the object can't remain at rest.

<em>B.</em> <em>The object's velocity changes.</em> <em>Yes.</em> From F=ma, if F is not zero, there must be acceleration.

C. The object's velocity can only increase.  No. It might decrease.

D. The object is moving with constant velocity.  No. From F=ma, if F is not zero, there must be acceleration.

<em>E.</em> <em>The object is accelerating.</em> <em>Yes.</em> From F=ma, if F is not zero, there must be acceleration.

A couch of mass 210 kg is being pushed across the floor with an applied force of 4100 N. The coefficient of kinetic friction bet
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Let us use the formula for Newton's Second Law of Motion:

Net force = Mass*Acceleration
Net force = Applied Force - μ*Normal Force
where μ is the coefficient of kinetic friction

Normal Force = Force due to gravity = mass*gravity
Normal Force = (210 kg)(9.81 m/s²) =<em> 2,060.1 N</em>

Then,
Net force = 4100 - 0.38*2060.1 = 3317.162 N

3317.162 N = (210 kg)(a)
Solving for acceleration,
<em>a = 15.796 m/s²</em>
