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.

EM waves consist of changing electric and magnetic fields moving perpendicular with respect to each other. What kind of wave is
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Transverse

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves don't depend on the medium they travel through like a mechanical wave does, so they aren't mechanical. They don't oscillate (move back in forth) in the direction they travel either, ruling out compressional and longitudinal waves.

That leaves tranverse waves, the ones we're most used to, since they look very "wavelike," with smooth peaks and valleys. Electromagnic waves behave like these, oscillating in a plane perpendicular to the direction they're traveling in.

What is specific heat? List the formula
sladkih [1.3K]

An example of a high specific heat is water’s specific heat, which requires 4.184 joules of heat to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius. Scientifically, water’s specific heat is written as: 1 calorie/gm °C = 4.186 J/gm °C.

You and your family are traveling to daytona beach for a vacation and your dad wants to get there in 7 hours. If daytona is 725
ollegr [7]

Answer:

103.57 Km/h

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Distance = 725 Km

Time = 7 hours

Speed =?

Speed can be defined as the distance travelled per unit time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Speed = Distance /time

With the above formula, we can calculate how fast he will drive (i.e the speed) in order to get there on time. This is illustrated below:

Distance = 725 Km

Time = 7 hours

Speed =?

Speed = Distance /time

Speed = 725 / 7

Speed = 103.57 Km/h

Thus, to get there on time, he will drive with a speed of 103.57 Km/h
