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

The gas planets usually have extremely high gravitational pulls, the surface isn't solid (since its a gas planet), and gas planets are larger than the inner planets.

How does Electromagnetic Energy Travel?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Perpendicular to the electric field and magnetic field

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves composed by the perpendicular oscillating electric and magnetic fields.

EM waves have both Electrical and magnetic features.

they travel in the velocity of light (3*10⁸ ms⁻¹)

they does not require any media to travel. It has two perpendicular electric field and the magnetic field which are perpendicular to each other

They travel perpendicular to each of those electric and magnetic fields.

a 100 g cart initially moving at 0.5 m/s collides elastically from a stationary 180 g cart. a) using the equation in the theory,
cupoosta [38]

A 100 g cart is moving at 0.5 m/s that collides elastically from a stationary 180 g cart. Final velocity is calculated to be 0.25m/s.

Collision in which there is no net loss in kinetic energy in the system as a result of the collision is known as elastic collision . Momentum and kinetic energy both are conserved quantities in elastic collisions.

Collision in which part of the kinetic energy is changed to some other form of energy is inelastic collision.

For an elastic collision, we use the formula,

m₁V₁i+ m₂V₂i = m₁V1f + m₂V₂f

For a perfectly elastic collision, the final velocity of the 100g cart will each be 1/2 the velocity of the initial velocity of the moving cart.

Final velocity = 0.5/2

=0.25 m/s.
