The answer is 12,390 ft.

At first, a climber is at 12,470 <span>ft above sea level. But then, he goes down 80 ft to meet a fellow climber. So, this simply needs to be distracted:
12,470 ft - 80 ft = 12,390 ft
This is the elevation </span>above sea level at which he meet the other climber.

astraxan [27]

Answer:

rubber ball

Explanation:

basically friction is caused by little electrical bonds at a molecular level. the ice had more bonds due to it being a cube rather than a ball which has one point of contact. this means less energy is needed to put the ball in motion than the ice cube.

Fw =  mass * gravitational acceleration
2*10^5 = mass * 9.8
mass of the elevator = 20.4*10^3 kg

Fnet = Tension – Fw
mass * acceleration = Tension – 2*10^5
20.4*10^3 * 3 = Tension – 2*10^5
61200 = Tension – 2*10^5
Tension = (61200) + (2*10^5)
Tension = 2.61 * 10^5 newton

0.006(896) + 0 = 0.006(435) + 1.25(V)
5.376 + 0 = 2.61 + 1.25(V)
5.376 = 2.61 + 1.25(V)
2.766 = 1.25(V)
V = 2.21 m/s

Heat lost = heat gained
X = equilibrium temperature
Heat lost = 160(90-x)
Heat gained = 10(x-10)

170x = 14500
X = 14500/170
X = 85.25 degrees

A locomotive enters a station with an initial velocity of 19 m/s and slows down at a rate of .8m/s^2 as it goes through. If the
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Final velocity, v = 25.3 m/s

Explanation:

Initial velocity of a locomotive, u = 19 m/s

Acceleration of the locomotive, a = 0.8 m/s²

Length of station, d = 175 m

We need to find its final velocity (v) when the nose leaves the station. It can be calculated using the third law of motion :

v^2-u^2=2ad

v^2=2ad+u^2

v^2=2\times 0.8\ m/s^2\times 175\ m+(19\ m/s)^2

v^2=(641)\ m^2

v = 25.31 m/s

v = 25.3 m/s

When the nose leaves the station, it will move with a velocity of 25.3 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which of these questions can be answered using scientific methods?
Naily [24]

The last one, about the trend of the temperatures in my city.

Those can be measured, and described with numbers that mean the same thing to everybody.

On the other hand, "interesting", "appealing", and "hectic" can't be precisely measured, so they can't be studied scientifically.
