v₀ = initial speed as tarzan grabs the vine = 5.3 m/s

v = final speed as the tarzan reach the maximum height = 0 m/s

h = maximum height gained by the tarzan

m = mass of tarzan

using conservation of energy

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy + potential energy

(0.5) m v²₀ = (0.5) m v² + m g h

(0.5) v²₀ = (0.5) v² + g h

(0.5) (5.3)² = (0.5) (0)² + (9.8) h

h = 1.43 m

Name the physical quantity measured by the velocity-time graph?
VARVARA [1.3K]
The so-called "velocity-time" graph is actually a "speed-time" graph.  At any point
on it, the 'x'-coordinate is a time, and the 'y'-coordinate is the speed at that time.

'Velocity' is a speed AND a direction.  Without a direction, you do not have a velocity,
and these graphs never show the direction of the motion.  It seems to me that it would be
pretty tough to draw a graph that shows the direction of motion at every instant of time,
so my take is that you'll never see a true "velocity-time" graph. 

At best, it would need a second line on it, whose 'y'-coordinate referred to a second
axis, calibrated in angle and representing the 'bearing' or 'heading' of the motion at
each instant. The graph of uniform circular motion, for example, would have a straight
horizontal line for speed, and a 'sawtooth' wave for direction.

In 1990, Dave Campos of the United States rode a special motorcycle called the Easyrider at an average speed of 518 km/h. Suppos
maks197457 [2]

The distance travelled during the given time can be found out by using the equations of motion.

The distance traveled during the time interval is "13810.8 m".

First, we will find the deceleration of the motorcycle by using the first <em>equation of motion</em>:

v_f=v_it+at\\\\

where,

vi = initial velocity = (518 km/h)(\frac{1\ h}{3600\ s})(\frac{1000\ m}{1\ km}) = 143.89 m/s

vf = final veocity = 60 % of 143.89 m/s = (0.6)(143.89 m/s) = 86.33 m/s

a = deceleration = ?

t =time interval = 2 min = 120 s

Therefore,

86.33\ m/s = 143.89\ m/s + a(120\ s)\\\\a = \frac{86.33\ m/s - 143.89\ m/s}{120\ s}

a = -0.48 m/s²

Now, we will use the second <em>equation of motion </em>to find out the distance traveled (s):

s = v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\\s = (143.89\ m/s)(120\ s)+\frac{1}{2}(-0.48\ m/s^2)(120\ s)^2\\\\s = 17266.8\ m - 3456\ m

<u>s = 13810.8 m = 13.81 km</u>

Why do you think it is a driving force of weather around the world?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The sun.

Explanation:

The sun provides energy for living organisms, and it drives our planet’s weather and climate patterns.

Remember, Earth is spherical and the energy from the sun does not reach all areas with equal intensity. Areas exposed to the sun are directly on the sun’s rays (i.e. those nearest to the equator) and hence, receive greater solar input. In contrast, those in higher latitudes receive sunlight that is spread over a larger area and that has taken a longer path through the atmosphere. As a result, these higher latitudes receive less solar energy.

Also, ocean circulation and precipitation are all factors of weather
