onds later. what is the magnitude of the horizontal component of the crate’s velocity just before it strikes the ground? [neglect friction.]

Since the plane is traveling at 100m/s horizontal to the surface of the earth, the crate will always have this horizontal velocity (neglecting air resistance) until it hits the ground.  So the answer is 100m/s.  Note the vertical speed continues to change as the crate accelerates downward toward earth (again neglecting air effects)

Which observational tool helped astronomers Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson discover the
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

A radio telescope helped the astronomers discover the CMB.

Explanation:

  • Penzias and Wilson while experimenting with a radio telescope in 1964, accidentally discovered the radiation that exists universally also known as the CMB.
  • This was used to support the "Big Bang Theory" and not the "Steady State Theory"
  • CMB is the faint cosmic radiation that fills up the universe. It provides important data for understanding early universe.
  • This data tells us about the composition of the universe and its age which raises new questions about the universe.

Exposure to the Sun's harmful infrared radiation should be kept to a minimum.
zysi [14]

Of course! If it's harmful, then your exposure to it should be kept
to a minimum.  That's a no-brainer.  But the sun's infrared radiation
is generally less harmful than its ultraviolet radiation is.

Answer a would be correct since velocity is a vector and has a magnitude and a direction. In this case v₁ = - v₂.
