Answer:

256.62 m

Explanation: We have a free fall motion, we know the initial speed as well as the final speed. Therefore we can find the distance that the plant travels, from Judy to her boyfriend, which tells us how far apart they are.

x=\frac{v_{f}^2-v_{o}^2}{2a}\\x=\frac{(71 m/s)^2-(3.35 m/s)^2}{2*9.8m/s^2}\\x= 256.62 m

Would an increase in pressure favor the formation of ozone or of oxygen?
max2010maxim [7]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

<u>An increase in pressure favors the formation of ozone </u>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • Ozone, O3, decomposes to molecular oxygen in the stratosphere according to the reaction

2O3(g) ⇆ 3O2 (g).

  • There are more moles of product gas than moles of reactant gas. An increase in total pressure increases the partial pressure of each gas, shifting the equilibrium towards the reactants.
  • Therefore; an increase in pressure favors backward reactions towards the formation of ozone.

Until he was in his seventies, Henri LaMothe excited audiences by belly-flopping from a height of 9 m into 32 cm. of water. Assu
baherus [9]

Answer:

823.46 kgm/s

Explanation:

At 9 m above the water before he jumps, Henri LaMothe has a potential energy change, mgh which equals his kinetic energy 1/2mv² just as he reaches the surface of the water.

So, mgh = 1/2mv²

From here, his velocity just as he reaches the surface of the water is

v = √2gh

h = 9 m and g = 9.8 m/s²

v = √(2 × 9 × 9.8) m/s

v = √176.4 m/s

v₁ = 13.28 m/s

So his velocity just as he reaches the surface of the water is 13.28 m/s.

Now he dives into 32 cm = 0.32 m of water and stops so his final velocity v₂ = 0.

So, if we take the upward direction as positive, his initial momentum at the surface of the water is p₁ = -mv₁. His final momentum is p₂ = mv₂.

His momentum change or impulse, J = p₂ - p₁ = mv₂ - (-mv₁) = mv₂ + mv₁. Since m = Henri LaMothe's mass = 62 kg,

J = (62 × 0 + 62 × 13.28) kgm/s = 0 +  823.46 kgm/s = 823.46 kgm/s

So the magnitude of the impulse J of the water on him is 823.46 kgm/s

Where are elements with few valence electrons found on the periodic table
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Valence electrons are the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom. You can easily determine the number of valence electrons an atom can have by looking at its Group in the periodic table.

What kind of motion for a star does not produce a Doppler effect? Explain.
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

 Transverse motion does not produced a doppler effect for a star. As, the doppler effect are occurred when the object are emitting light either in the direction towards the observer or moving away. The various astronomical objects are moving and the observer observed the blue wavelength of the light.

Doppler effect in the star is the process when the observer moves towards the star then it seems like the star move towards the observer.
