Answer:3

Explanation:

First ball is thrown with horizontal velocity while other ball is dropped from cliff such that both have zero vertical velocity. So both balls have to cover a distance equal to the height of cliff with same initial velocity.

time taken is given by t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

where h=height of cliff

g=acceleration due to gravity

horizontal velocity to first ball will make the ball to travel more horizontal distance as compared to second ball.

Option 3 is correct

Can anyone help me to explain theory of relativity??? ​
OLga [1]

Answer:

The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity, proposed and published in 1905 and 1915, respectively. Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity. General relativity explains the law of gravitation and its relation to other forces of nature.It applies to the cosmological and astrophysical realm, including astronomy.

The theory transformed theoretical physics and astronomy during the 20th century, superseding a 200-year-old theory of mechanics created primarily by Isaac Newton. It introduced concepts including spacetime as a unified entity of space and time, relativity of simultaneity, kinematic and gravitational time dilation, and length contraction. In the field of physics, relativity improved the science of elementary particles and their fundamental interactions, along with ushering in the nuclear age. With relativity, cosmology and astrophysics predicted extraordinary astronomical phenomena such as neutron stars, black holes, and gravitational waves

Which of the following statements describe the steps you need to take to delete a file?
Doss [256]
In order to delete a file, it is required to first select the file which you want to delete and then select 'delete' from the file menu. It will then ask you to confirm the deletion which will be required in order to complete the file deletion process.

It isn't required to click on the X at the top right of the screen or to open the file you want to delete as these steps aren't relevant to the deletion process.

Hence, the statements which describe the steps you need to take in order to delete a file are as follows:

- Confirm the deletion.
- Select Delete from the File menu.
- Select the file you want to delete.
