a) El Niño is defined as an abnormal weather pattern caused by the warming of the Pacific Ocean near the equator, off the coast of South America. The sun warms the water near the equator, which can make more clouds and, therefore, more rain. It has detrimental effects on biodiversity leading to its large-scale loss by
warmer sea temperatures leading to plankton and fish kills in coastal waters
lower sea levels leading to exposure of underwater coral reefs, causing their loss.
24-15=9 m/s slower in 12 seconds. So 9/12 m/s² slower. Therefore the acceleration is -0,75 m/s²
If the gymnast mass were doubled, her height (h) from the top of the board would be as follows,

Explanation:
- The Mass of an object or body does not affect the acceleration due to gravity in any kind of way.
- Light weight objects accelerate more slowly than the heavy objects because when the forces other than the gravity also plays a major role.
- Mass increases of a body when an object has higher velocity or the speed.
- The greater the force of gravity, it would give a direct impact on the object's acceleration; thus considering only a force, the heavier the object is, it would accelerate faster. But an acceleration depends upon the two factors which are force and mass.
- Newton's second law of motion states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon the two factors which are, the net force of an object and the mass of the object.
Explanation:
Starting position at x = 16m
Ending position at x = -25m
Time of flight = 4s
Unknown:
Distance flown = ?
Displacement = ?
Speed = ?
Velocity = ?
Solution:
To find the distance flown, we should understand that the body is moving on the x - plane;
So distance = 16 + 25 = 41m
Displacement is 41m to the left or -x axis
Speed is the distance divided by the time taken;
Speed = 
= 
= 10.25m/s
Velocity is 10.25m/s along -x axis
