If an object falls for 4 seconds, how fast is it going when it hits the ground?
MArishka [77]

Acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8 m/s²

So after every second, the speed increase by 9.8 m/s

After 1 second, the object would fall at a speed of 9.8 m/s

After 2 seconds the object would fall at a speed of 19.6 m/s

So after 4 seconds, the object is going to be at a speed of:

9.8 x 4 = 39.2 m/s

-------------------------------------------------

<u>Answer</u>

39.2 m/s

Ruby was training for a race at the high school track. She took her dog walked 2250 meters in 15 minutes. Calculate the average
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Average speed = 2.5 meter per second

Explanation:

Given

The total distance walked = 2250 meters

The total time taken to walk 2250 meters is 15 minutes

In one minute there are 60 seconds

As we know Average speed is equal to total distance travelled divided by total time taken

Hence,

Average speed

\frac{2250}{15*60} \\2.5meter per second

<h3>What are reactants in a chemical reaction?</h3>

A chemical reaction is a reaction typically involving the breaking or making of interatomic bonds, in which one or more substances are changed into others.

In a chemical reaction, the atoms of substances called reactants are converted into substances called products.

Reactants are any of the participants present at the start of a chemical reaction. Reactants are present at the left hand side of a chemical reaction.

Therefore, reactants in a chemical reaction are the atoms prior to the chemical reaction, found on the left side of the equation.
