Which activity would be an appropriate first step

andriy [413]

Answer:

B. Researching the problem, using information from a variety of sources

Explanation:

First you must create a hypothesis because with out a hypothesis you can’t do the experiment. Then you have to do some research on your problem/ hypothesis from reliable sources. After have your research you can organize your data with a data table or chart. Then when have your research look for the independent and dependent variable and the control. Then you have to make a conclusion based on multiple experimental trials then repeat the experiment and if it ends up different from the first then something is wrong and that means that you did something wrong. Hopefully this helps you :)

pls mark brainlest ;)

You are the juror of a case involving a drunken driver whose 1041 kg sports car ran into a stationary 1928 kg station wagon stop

mina [271]

1. Find the force of friction between the sports car and the station wagon stuck together and the road. The total mass m = 1928kg + 1041kg = 2969kg. The only force in the x-direction is friction: F = μ*N = μ * m * g
2. Find the acceleration due to friction:
F = m*a = μ * m * g => a = μ * g = 0.6 * 9.81
3. Find the time it took the two cars stuck together to slide 12m:
x = 0.5*a*t²
t = sqrt(2*x / a) = sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) )
4. Find the initial velocity of the two cars:
v = a*t = μ * g * sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) ) = sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g)
5. Use the initial velocity of the two cars combined to find the velocity of the sports car. Momentum must be conserved:

m₁ mass of sports car
v₁ velocity of sports car before the crash
m₂ mass of station wagon
v₂ velocity of station wagon before the crash = 0
v velocity after the crash

m₁*v₁ + m₂*v₂ = (m₁+m₂) * v = m₁*v₁
v₁ = (m₁+m₂) * v / m₁ = (m₁+m₂) * sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g) / m₁
v₁ = 33.9 m/s

A wrench is accidentally dropped at the top of an elevator shaft in a tall building. (a) How many meters does the wrench fall in

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

11.25m

Explanation:

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2} \\ = 0 \times 1.5 + \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times {1.5}^{2} \\ = 5 \times 2.25 \\ = 11.25$

Which has more gravitaatoinal potental energy: a bird on the ground or the same bird in the tree? why?

julsineya [31]

The same bird on the tree has more gravitational potential energy. This is because it is at a higher distance from the ground as it is on the tree, than when it is on the ground.

Considering also the formula for Gravitational Potential Energy GPE = mgh

For the bird on the ground, h =0, therefore GPE = m*9.8*0 = 0

For that on the tree = mgh = m*9.8*h

Of course the one on the tree has a value greater than zero.
