the basic measurements of length, volume, and mass are 1 meter, 1 meter³ and 1kilogram.
One 10-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator would equal one meter.
A cube with sides of one meter has a volume of one meter³.
The mass of 1,000 cubic centimeters of water is very close to (and was originally intended to be exactly) one kilograms.
but today a more precise way to define is available in which:
1 meter is defined as the distance traveled by light in 1/3×10⁸ sec.
The weight of a specific platinum-iridium prototype held by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures is defined as 1 kg.
moreover these measurements are man made and are not absolute and therefore many new units of measurement can be defined as long as they are fundamentally same everywhere.

Answer:
The distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m
Explanation:
velocity of the ball, 
= 2 m/s south
velocity of the air, 
= 5 m/s west
To determine the distance the balloon will travel after 2 seconds, first determine the resultant velocity of the balloon.
| 2m/s
|
|
↓
5m/s ←------------------
the two velocities forms a right angled triangle and the resultant will be the hypotenuses side of the triangle.
R² = 5² + 2²
R² = 29
R = √29
R = 5.385 m/s
The distance traveled by the balloon is calculated as;
d = R x t
where;
t is time of the motion = 2 seconds
d = 5.385 x 2
d = 10.77 m
Therefore, the distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m.
Answer:
Water breaking down into hydrogen and oxygen is a decomposition reaction
Hydrogen and oxygen combining to form water is a synthesis reaction
Explanation:
A decomposition reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the breakdown of a chemical reactant entity into two or more simpler product fragments
Water H₂O undergoes a decomposition reaction by breaking down into hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, as follows;
2H₂O (l) → 2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)
A synthesis reaction is a reaction that involves the chemical combination of two or more dissimilar molecules or atoms to produce a different compound or molecule
Water, H₂O, is formed by a synthesis reaction of hydrogen, H₂,, and oxygen, O₂, combining as follows;
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
We use the formula,
Here, h is the variable represents the height of the flare in feet when it returns to the sea so, h = 0 and u is the initial velocity of the flare, in feet per second and its value of 192 ft/sec.
Substituting these values in above equation, we get
.
Here, t= 0 neglect because it is the time when the flare is launched.
Thus, flare return to the sea in 12 s.
