First find the time it takes to hit the sand t
using s=1/2 g t^2
t^2= 8/9.8= 0.82 seconds
This means the sand was s = 8 * 0.82 = 6.5m away
The horizontal speed stays constant at 8 m/s
The vertical speed =.82 * 9.8 = 8.0 m/s
As the two velocities are equal the angle must be 45 degrees to the horizontal

Find the velocity at which the bowling ball must move for its kinetic energy to be equal to that of the meteorite.
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. For example, if a an object with a mass of 10 kg (m = 10 kg) is moving at a velocity of 5 meters per second (v = 5 m/s), the kinetic energy is equal to 125 Joules, or (1/2 * 10 kg) * 5 m/s2.

Answer:

Chemical and Biological weathering.

Explanation:

Processes that break down and weaken earth minerals are known as weathering. Over time, this can lead to erosion, in which huge sections of rock and stone are carried away, changing landscapes. Physical weathering alters the material structure of rocks, while chemical weathering alters their chemical structure.
