Answer:

4.88 m/s

Explanation:

Using the law of conservation of energy, we know that energy can neither be created nor destroyed but can only be transformed from one state to another. Therefore, the kinetic energy at the inclined bottom equals to the potential energy at the top hence 0.5mv^{2}=mgh

and making v the subject of the formula then v=2gh where m represnt the mass of sled, v is the initial speed, g is acceleration due to gravity and h ia the vertical height. Substituting g with 9.81 m/s2 and h with 1.22 then

v=2\times 9.81\times 1.22\approx 4.88 m/s

What evidence can you cite to support the claim that the frequency of light does not change upon reflection?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer: The color of an image is identical to the color of the object forming the image. When you look at yourself in a mirror, the color of your eyes doesn’t change. The fact that the color is the same is evidence that the frequency of light doesn’t change upon reflection. 2.

Hope this helps!!

What are two things that the amount of gravitational force between two object depends on
Amiraneli [1.4K]
1).  the product of the two masses being gravitationally attracted to each other

2).  the distance between their centers of mass

And that's IT.  The gravitational force between them depends on
only those two things, nothing else.

Which statement best defines inertia? An object's motion is unaffected by any external forces acting upon it. An object responds
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

An object responds to a force by tending to move in the direction of that force

Explanation:

The inertia of a body can be defined with the help of Newton's second law

          F = m a

Where F is the applied force, a is the acceleration of the body and m is the mass

the force and the acceleration are vectors that point in the same direction and m is a scalar constant that relates the two vectors, this scalar constant is called masses and it measures the resistance of the bodies to the change of motion.

From the previous statement we see that the statement that best describes inertia is:

An object responds to force by tending to move in the direction of the force.
