Answer:

The maximum range obtainable by a person if he has a take-off speed of 9.5 m/s is 9.21 m

Explanation:

The only assumptions are that

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

The equation for range of a projectile, R = (u² sin 2θ)/g

u = initial takeoff velocity = 9.5 m/s, θ = angle of jump.

To attain the maximum range, the (sin 2θ) has to be maximized to 1, that is,

Sin 2θ = 1 = sin 90°

2θ = 90°

θ = 45°

Therefore, the maximum angle of jump had to be 45°

R = (9.5² sin (2×45°))/9.8 = 9.5²/9.8 = 9.21 m

Explain the statement: “Cells are the basic units of structure and function in living things.”
babymother [125]

All living things are made up of cells.  Each cell's individual function helps the organism collectively function.  They are the most basic as they can be self-contained.  And there is no other particle smaller that can function on it's own.

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.
