A rock of mass m is thrown straight up into the air with initial speed |v0 | and initial position y = 0 and it rises up to a max
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Case 1:

mass = m

initial velocity = vo

final velocity = 0

height = y

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2as

0 = vo² - 2 g y

y = vo² / 2g       ... (1)

Case 2:

mass = 2m

initial velocity = 2vo

final velocity = 0

height = y '

Use third equation of motion

v² = u² - 2as

0 = 4vo² - 2 g y'

y ' = 4vo² / 2g

y' = 4 y

Thus, the second rock reaches the 4 times the distance traveled by the first rock.

Describe the main reason why the scientific community did not accept Alfred wegener idea of continental drift?
lara31 [8.8K]
<span>I think they were also too skeptic to believe the continent did move or pull apart, even today do you believe that the continents broke from one big flat plate, and that they pulled apart? They also wonder what large force would be responsible for the movement.

It was much later that evidences from plant and animal features that had similarity from two different planets came up that scientists began accepting the idea of continental drift.
And similar rock strata from two different opposite continents, showed similar rock strata.
All these evidences came up much later after Alfred Wengener.

So Alfred Wengener was honored Posthumously</span>

3. The expression 0.62 x10^3 is equivalent to...
Korolek [52]

\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.62\times 10^3

\\ \sf\longmapsto 62\times 10^{-2}\times 10^3

\\ \sf\longmapsto 62\times 10^{-2+3}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 62\times 10^1

\\ \sf\longmapsto 62\times 10

\\ \sf\longmapsto 620

navik [9.2K]

Answer:    
Wien's law:    
λ_peak = b/T    
Wien's constant: b = 2.8977685(51)Ă—10â’3 m•K    
T = (5/9)[96 – 32) + 273 = 35.55 + 273 = 308.55 deg. K    
λ_peak = 2.8977685(51)Ă—10â’3 /308.55 = 9.39x10^-6 = 9.39 um
