Answer:

Step-by-Step Explanation:

The urban sprawl is basically started due to the development of our country.

Country is stepping ahead from developing country to developed country.

It negatively impacts the environment because excessively we are cutting trees.

Excess of everything is bad.

If we are cutting 1 tree we should grow 2 trees in behalf of that 1 tree.

Development is also necessary and for those who have shifted form rural to urban areas.Facilities have to be provided.So, shopping malls, industries are getting constructed.

Urban sprawl occurs when housing is filled in one location and car dependent communities are forced to moved away from the central urban areas where the population is too vast, even though this impacts the environment by increasing pollution and causing environmental degradation.

A physics student standing on the edge of a cliff throws a stone vertically downward with an initial speed of 10 m/s. The instan

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

The velocity just before hitting the ground is $v_f = 30 m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The initial speed is $u = 10 m/s$

The final speed is $v = 30 \ m/s$

From the equations of motion we have that

$v^2 =u^2 + 2as$

Where s is the distance travelled which is the height of the cliff

So making it the subject of the the formula we have that

$s = \frac{v^2 - u^2 }{2a}$

Where a is the acceleration due to gravity with a value $a = 9.8m/s^2$

$s = \frac{30^2 - 10^2 }{2 * 9.8 }$

$s = 40.8 \ m$

Now we are told that was through horizontally with a speed of

$v_x =10 m/s$

Which implies that this would be its velocity horizontally through out the motion

Now it final velocity vertically can be mathematically evaluated as

$v_y = \sqrt{2as}$

Substituting values

$v_y = \sqrt{(2 * 9.8 * 40.8)}$

$v_y = 28.3 \ m/s$

The resultant final velocity is mathematically evaluated as

$v_f = \sqrt{v_x^2 + v_y^2}$

Substituting values

$v_f = \sqrt{10^2 + 28.3^2}$

$v_f = 30 m/s$

What is the correct sequence for light traveling through a microscope?

Alexandra [31]

The answer would be B.

Since the light source comes from the bottom, you just need to find the sequence from the bottom going up.

It will start with the light source, then go through the slide, which will then go through the objective lens and lastly, the eyepiece lens. In summary, the sequence is:

B. Light --- slide ---- objective lens --- eyepiece lens

A paint brush is dropped from the top of a tall ladder and free falls to the ground. What changes, if any, would be observed of

muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

As the paint brush is dropped from the top of a tall ladder it started free falling

i.e. velocity of brush increases as it falls down due to the acceleration provided by gravity.

We know acceleration due to gravity is the attraction experienced by the object due to earth attraction

Value of acceleration due to gravity is constant i.e. $9.8\ m/s^2$

Therefore the correct choice is

velocity is increasing and acceleration is constant
