Answer:

d. None of the above.

Explanation:

In a parabolic motion, you have that in the complete trajectory the component velocity is constant and the vertical component changes in time. Then, the total velocity vector is not zero.

In the complete trajectory the gravitational acceleration is always present. Then, the grasshopper's acceleration vector is not zero.

At the top of the arc the grasshopper is not at equilibrium because the gravitational force is constantly acting on the grasshopper.

Then, the correct answer is:

d. None of the above.

What is the least dense planet in our solar system?.
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Jupiter is the largest planet in the solar system, but it's Saturn—the solar system's second largest planet—that takes the prize for least dense. It's less dense than water, which has led many people to postulate that it would float.

one layer of earth's atmosphere is called the stratosphere. At one point above earth's surface the stratosphere extends from an
masya89 [10]

According to all the given requirements 

stratosphere x starts at an altitude of 16 km

that means  

<span>16≤x

</span> and,as given ,stratosphere ends at an altitude of 30 km:
which means
<span>x≤30</span> combining both of them we get

<span>16≤x≤30</span> So the range of the stratosphere is from 16 to 30 km.

Wavelength. Each wavelength is a certain color. For instance, shorter wavelengths (like 470nm) will be blue or violet, while longer wavelengths (like 650nm) will be red. Hope this helps! :)
