Answer:

23.52 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Time taken (t) to reach the maximum height = 2.4 s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Initial velocity (u) =..?

At the maximum height, the final velocity (v) is zero. Thus, we can obtain how fast the rock (i.e initial velocity)

was thrown as follow:

v = u – gt (since the rock is going against gravity)

0 = u – (9.8 × 2.4)

0 = u – 23.52

Collect like terms

0 + 23.52 = u

u = 23.52 m/s

Therefore, the rock was thrown at a velocity of 23.52 m/s.

A string that is under 54.0 N of tension has linear density 5.20 g/m . A sinusoidal wave with amplitude 2.50 cm and wavelength 1
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

8.89288275 m/s

Explanation:

F = Tension = 54 N

\mu = Linear density of string = 5.2 g/m

A = Amplitude = 2.5 cm

Wave velocity is given by

v=\sqrt{\frac{F}{\mu}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{54}{5.2\times 10^{-3}}}\\\Rightarrow v=101.90493\ m/s

Frequency is given by

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}\\\Rightarrow f=\frac{101.90493}{1.8}\\\Rightarrow f=56.61385\ Hz

Angular frequency is given by

\omega=2\pi f\\\Rightarrow \omega=2\pi 56.61385\\\Rightarrow \omega=355.71531\ rad/s

Maximum velocity of a particle is given by

v_m=A\omega\\\Rightarrow v_m=0.025\times 355.71531\\\Rightarrow v_m=8.89288275\ m/s

The maximum velocity of a particle on the string is 8.89288275 m/s

Why would it be desirable to use an energy resource that does not produce greenhouse gases ?
Dimas [21]

It be desirable to use an energy resource that does not produce greenhouse gases because it contribute to climate change .

Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Greenhouse gases are the toxic gases that contribute to the "greenhouse effect". Greenhouse gases have the ability to absorb and emit some of the outgoing energy that is radiated by the Earth's surface, eventually causing the heat to get accumulated in the "lower atmosphere". It is always beneficial to use Renewable Energy sources such as Wind, solar and water which gives no harm to the environment and climate with no greenhouse gas emissions.  

<u>For example:</u> If we have to generate electricity, there will be no greenhouse gas production at the beginning and a very less amount of production at the entire life cycle.
