What do you know:
d=-8.0mm (starts higher and ends lower so it is negative)
Vi=0m/s (because it was dropped, not thrown)
A=-9.8m/s^2 (gravity)
Vf=???
Use the equation:
Vf^2=Vi^2+2A(d)
Vf^2=2(-9.8)(-8.0)
Vf^2= 156.8 -->find the square root of this
Final answer: Vf= 12.5m/s

Atoms that are bonded together to form a new material with new<br> properties and characteristics. .
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.

If a girl is standing still and holding a box, is she doing any work? Why or why not?
sukhopar [10]
I beleive she isnt doing any work due to holding the box motionless, you must be exerting a force in the direction of the box motion. If she is just standing there holding the box their isn't no work becuase no distance has been covered. work = force = distance.

A cheetah can go from the state of rest to running at 20m/s in just two seconds. What is the Cheetahs average acceleration
babymother [125]

acceleration = change in velocity/change in time

so...

a = 20 m/s / 2 seconds

a = 10


hope that helps :)

P.S. found this from Brainly User, sometimes all you have to do is search to find the answer.

Consider two identical insulated metal spheres, A and B. Sphere A initially has a charge of -6.0 units and sphere B initially ha
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

<em>-2 units of charge</em>

Explanation:

charge on A = Qa = -6 units

charge on B = Qb = 2 units

if the spheres are brought in contact with each other, the resultant charge will be evenly distributed on the spheres when they are finally separated.

charge on each sphere will be = \frac{Qa + Qb}{2}

charge on each sphere =  \frac{-6 + 2}{2} = \frac{-4}{2} = <em>-2 units of charge</em>
