What is polygamy? Explain please:)

2 answers:

I always thought that 'polygamy' refers to the social system in which a man
may have more than one wife, and I thought there's some other word for
where a woman is married to more than one man.

But when I went to look it up just now to answer your question, (which by the
way you could also have done very easily), I found a definition that says it's a
"state of marriage between many spouses". That doesn't specify genders, so
I guess it means any marriage that involves more than two people, no matter
how the genders may be represented or distributed within it.

Polygamy is the marriage that includes two or more partners, like a husband with four wives.<span />

An acorn falls from a tree. Its velocity just before it hits the ground is 28.2 m/s, downward. (acceleration of gravity is 9.81m

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

12.74 ms^-1 download

Explanation:

v=28.2, a=9.81

start from rest u=0

v=u+at=0+(9.81)t=28.2

t=2.875...

it reach 1.4 second before hitting the ground:

t=1.4, u=0, a=9.81

v=u+at=0+(9.81)(1.4)=12.74

After landing on an unfamiliar planet, a space explorer constructs a simple pendulum of length 55.0 cm. She finds the pendulum m

forsale [732]

Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity will be $g=5.718m/sec^2$

Explanation:

We have given length of pendulum l = 55 cm = 0.55 m

It is given that pendulum completed 100 swings in 145 sec

So time taken by pendulum for 1 swing $=\frac{145}{100}=1.45sec$

We have to find the acceleration due to gravity at that point

We know that time period of pendulum;um is given by

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}$

So $1.45=2\times 3.14\times \sqrt{\frac{0.55}{g}}$

$\sqrt{\frac{0.55}{g}}=0.230$

Squaring both side

${\frac{0.3025}{g}}=0.0529$

$g=5.718m/sec^2$

So acceleration due to gravity will be $g=5.718m/sec^2$

An apple falls from a tree and 2.5 seconds later hits the ground. How fast is the apple falling when it hits the ground? Neglect

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

Explanation:

<h2>Since the ball rises for 2.5 s, the time to fall is 2.5 s. The acceleration is 9.8 m/s2 everywhere, even when the velocity is zero at the top of the path. Although the velocity is zero at the top, it is changing at the rate of 9.8 m/s² downward.</h2>

A battery powers a circuit for a small noisy fan. The fan’s motor gets warm as it turns. What energy transformations are taking

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The battery is an electric energy source, which is being used to power a motor. The motor turns this electricity into kinetic energy as it spins the fan, creates heat from friction, and creates noise as stated by the problem.
