The correct answer is 29.4 m/s.

The right formula to use for the scenario given in the question is:

Vf = Vi + at

Where: Vf = Final velocity = ?

Vi = Initial velocity = 0

a = Acceleration [due to gravity] = 9.8 m/s

T = Time = 3 s

Note that an object that is falling down from a height has an initial velocity of zero.

Vf = 0 + [9.8 * 3] = 29.4

Therefore, final velocity = 29.4 m/s.

To solve this kinematics formula use the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 0 + (9.81 m/s^2)(3 seconds)
Vf = 29.43 m/s and or about 29.4 m/s of reported to 3 significant figures.

wlad13 [49]
I believe the answer would be 14.25 an hour because $85.50/ 6 would be 14.25 but i could be wrong.

The arrangement of elements based on their properties
Thepotemich [5.8K]
<span>The arrangement of the periodic table leads us to visualize certain trends among the atoms. The vertical columns ( basically their groups) of the periodic table and they are arranged such that all its elements have the same number of valence electrons. And all the elements within a certain group thus share similar properties and that's about it.</span>

5. Discuss the phenomena of sunrise and sunset seen on Earth and describe how they will be different from the perspective of out
Colt1911 [192]

Despite its appearance, air has a ‘thickness’ so when the sun is high in the sky the light travels through the air on a very much shorter path than when it is low on the horizon.

Imagine that air water and you are below the surface, the light from an overhead sun will be quite sharp and bright, but if lower in the sky it will have to travel through much more water to reach you, so will look less bright and sharp. It ma not seem the same, but the atmosphere is just like very thin water, and a low lying sun will be drastically reduced in strength, so all you will see is a sun with a shift to the red end of the spectrum as all the actinic part will be filtered away by that thicker atmosphere.

List a few ways that would lead you to believe a chemical reaction has occurred
iren2701 [21]
There are many ways which can <span>lead us to believe a chemical reaction has occurred. I am discussing few of them.

Change in Color:
                          Few reactions proceed with the change in colour. When Bromine Water (yellow-Brown) is treated with unsaturated compounds, the color disappear as the reaction is completed.

Gas Production:
                         Some reactions proceed with the elimination of gas i.e. CO</span>₂ , H₂, N₂, H₂O e.t.c. 

Temperature Change:
                                 Some reactions evolve or absorb heat when proceed. This change is the evidence of progress of reaction.

Thin Layer Chromatography:
                                             Very important technique in detecting the progress of reaction by determining the number of spots for UV active compounds on TLC plate. Even non UV active compounds can be detected by using other locating agents.

Instrumental Techniques:
                                       Modern techniques like IR, MS, NMR, UV spectroscopy can be used to detect the progress of reaction.

Caleb is an inventor who has designed a new kind of fishing net. He is looking for a strong, flexible material that can be used
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

c. Polystyrene

Explanation:

Caleb wants a synthetic material that is not soluble in water, so it must be a nonpolar material because water is polar.

Cellulose is a nonpolar molecular, but is a natural product;

Nylon is a synthetic compound, but is polar, so it' soluble in water;

Vulcanized rubber is polar and the rubber is a natural compound.

The only compound that he can use is polystyrene, which is insoluble in water and is a synthetic material.
