A boy reaches out of a window and tosses a ball straight up with a speed of 10 m/s. The ball is 20 m above the ground as he rele

kirill115 [55]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the ball, v = 10 m/s

Initial position of ball above ground, h = 20 m

(a) Let H is the maximum height reached by the ball. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy as :

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh'$

$h'=\dfrac{v^2}{2g}$

$h'=\dfrac{(10)^2}{2\times 9.8}$

h' = 5.1 m

The maximum height above ground,

H = 5.1 + 20

H = 25.1 meters

So, the maximum height reached by the ball is 25.1 meters.

(b) The ball's speed as it passes the window on its way down is same as the initial speed i.e. 10 m/s.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Name TWO WEAKNESSES of the model pictured below

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Here are a few:

1) The orbital radius of these planets is ridiculously small an in no way representative of their actual radii.

2) The planets will only line up like that once every 5200 years, making this very unrepresentative of their usual relations - although this does make their order in distance from the sun.

3) The nebulae, comet, lens flare, and other junk in the background is incorrect.

4) If this is meant as a representation of the planets, then Pluto should not be there as it is now considered a planetoid.

5) The planets are incorrectly scaled both to each other and to the sun.

Scientific evidence documents the pattern of evolution. The evidence exists in a variety of categories. What are these categorie

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientific evidence takes note of the pattern of evolution. The evidence exists in a variety of categories, including direct observation of evolutionary change, the fossil record, homology, and biogeography.

Examples of the categories with their respective examples are:

Direct observation of evolutionary change: Development of drug resistant bacteria

Fossil record: Discovery of transitional forms of horses, Discovery of shells of extinct species

Homology: Similarities in mammalian forelimbs, Same genetic code in fireflies and tobacco plants, Vestigial pelvis in right whales

Biogeography: Similarity of endemic island species to nearby mainland species, The high concentration of marsupial species in Australia

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) whi

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

The explorer should travel to reach base camp to 5.02 Km at 4.28° south of due west.

Explanation:

Using trigonometric function like Sen(Ф), Cos(Ф) and Tan(Ф) we can get distance and direction that the explorer should travel to reach base camp. When we discompound the vector $X = 7.8*Cos(50) = 5.01 Km$ y $y = 7.8 * Sen (50) - 5.6 = 5.975 - 5.6 (Km) = 0.375 (Km)$ so that $Tan (\alpha ) = \frac{0.375}{5.01} = 4.28$ ; $\alpha = Arctang (\frac{0.375}{5.01}) = 4.28 (degree)$ to get how far we use Pythagorean theorem so $R^{2} = x^{2}+y^{2}$ so that $R=\sqrt{0.375^{2}+5.01^{2} } =5.02 (Km)$
