Answer:

E ) The horizontal component of a projectile acceleration is zero.

Explanation:

In case of a projectile , force of gravity acts in vertically downward direction so acceleration will act in vertically downward direction . Its direction never changes during course of its journey. So horizontal component of acceleration will always be zero at all points of its journey.

A ball is falling after rolling off a tall roof<br> The ball has what type of energy.
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

Linear and rotational Kinetic Energy + Gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

The ball rolls off a tall roof and starts falling.

Let us first consider the potential energy or more specifically gravitational potential energy (mgh; m = mass of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height of the roof). This energy comes because someone or something had to do work to take the ball to the top of the roof against the force of gravity. The potential energy is naturally maximum at the top and minimum when the ball finally reaches the ground.

Now, the ball starts to roll and falls off the roof. It shall continue rotating because of inertia (Newton's first law). This contributes to the rotational kinetic energy (\frac{1}{2}I\omega^2; I=moment of inertia of the ball & \omega = angular velocity).

Finally comes the linear kinetic energy or simply, kinetic energy (\frac{1}{2}mv^2) which is caused due to the velocity v of the ball.

A family has a furnace that uses natural gas to heat their home. They are moving to an area that offers the option of using ener
Murrr4er [49]

The disadvantage will the family most likely face by making this switch is that solar power has a less reliable production of heat.Option A is correct.

<h3>What is a power plant?</h3>

A power plant is an industrial structure that generates electricity. The majority of power plants are linked to the electrical grid.

Nuclear power bare a form of the thermal power plant. You have a reactor where fission takes place and heat is generated, a heat exchanger that transports this heat to where it is needed.

Thermal power plant equipment converts this heat into electric energy, usually via a steam turbine.

The household will most likely experience a disadvantage from this decision in that solar power produces heat less consistently.

Hence option A is correct,
