Your friend claims that weather predictions are just guesses. What would you say to change your friend's mind?

To change my friends mind, after they've already said weather predictions are just guesses, I would say they are correct, but not only to they use guesses to predict what will happen, but they also, before hand, use atmospheric tools. They then predict from the data collected. They do both.

You throw a ball downward from a window at a speed of 2.5 m/s. how fast will it be moving when it hits the sidewalk 2.1 m below?
Otrada [13]
List out all the variables that you do know; 

acceleration=-9.8 ms⁻¹ (this remains constant on Earth)
Final velocity=?
Displacement (s)= -2.1 m 
Initial Velocity(u)=2.5 ms⁻¹

v²=u²+2as 
v²=(2.5)²+2(-9.8)(-2.1)
v²=47.41 
v=√47.41 
v=6.88549 ≈ 6.9 ms⁻¹ 

Hope I helped :)

Explain using physics vocabulary WHY the volume increases as the temperature increases.
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

P V = n R T      ideal gas equation

V = k T     where k = a constant and equals k = n R / P

V is proportional to T when other factors are constant

A .422 kg coffee mug rests on a table top 0.63 m above the floor. What is the potential energy of the mug with respect to the fl
kondaur [170]

Answer:

2.61 J

Explanation:

Since potential energy U = mgy where m = mass of object, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and y = height of object above the ground.

Now for the coffee mug, m= 0.422 kg and it is 0.63 m on a table, so it is 0.63 m above the ground. Thus, y = 0.63 m.

We compute U

U = mgy

= 0.422 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.63 m

= 2.605 J

≅ 2.61 J

So, the potential energy of the mug with respect to the floor is 2.61 J

A ball moving with an initial velocity of 5 m/s comes to rest after 2s. What was the ball's acceleration?
Inga [223]

Answer:

-2.5m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration of a body is giving by the rate of change of the body's velocity. It is given by

a = Δv / t        ----------------(i)

Where;

a = acceleration (measured in m/s²)

Δv = change in velocity = final velocity - initial velocity   (measure in m/s)

t = time taken for the change (measured in seconds(s))

From the question;

i. initial velocity = 5m/s

final velocity = 0 [since the body (ball) comes to rest]

Δv = 0 - 5 = -5m/s

ii. time taken = t = 2s

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

a = (-5m/s) / (2s)

a = -2.5m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the ball is -2.5m/s²

NB: The negative sign shows that the ball was actually decelerating.
