" 20 m/s² " means that if gravity is the ONLY force on the object
(the object is in 'free fall'), then its speed increases by  20 m/s
every second.

That's the answer to your question.  Now, let me ask you
another one:

How does a speedometer tied to a falling rock work ?
How can it measure the rock's speed ?

Maybe one way would be to have a little tiny propeller on
the front of the speedometer, and it could measure how fast
the propeller is spinning as the rock falls through the air ?
Great idea.  But we already said the rock is in free-fall,
so there's no air resistance, we can't have any air, and
there's nothing to spin the propeller.

How would you do it ?  How can you measure the rock's speed ?

Descreva sucintamente como ocorre a formação do raio x pela ampola ou tubo
Umnica [9.8K]

Um tubo de raios-X é um tubo de vácuo que converte a energia elétrica em raios-X. A disponibilidade dessa fonte controlável de raios-X criou o campo da radiografia, a imagem de objetos parcialmente opacos com radiação penetrante. Em contraste com outras fontes de radiação ionizante, os raios X são produzidos apenas enquanto o tubo de raios X estiver energizado. Os tubos de raios-X também são utilizados em scanners de tomografia computadorizada, scanners de bagagem de aeroportos, cristalografia de raios-X, análise de materiais e estrutura e para inspeção industrial.

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

b. 20 sec

Explanation:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ g t²

0 = 0 + (100) t + ½ (-10) t²

0 = 100t − 5t²

0 = t (100 − 5t)

t = 0, t = 20

The body lands after 20 seconds.
