A small package is attached to a helium-filled balloon rising at 2 m/s. The package drops from the balloon when it is 14 meters

above the ground. What is the velocity of the package just before it hits the ground?

I would assume air resistance is negligible and so the acceleration of the package would be approximately 9.81 m/s².

Taking downwards as positive, use v²=u²+2as.
v²=(-2)²+2(9.81)(14)
v=16.7 m/s

What determines if a material is a conductor or an insulator? Explain your answer and provide at least one example of each.
Dmitry [639]
A conducting material conducts or allows electricity to flow, while an insulator does not allow electricity to flow. For example think of a water pipe, if the pipe has a hole water can flow, on the other hand if it is just a solid rod, no water can flow through. I hope this helps.

Relate the structure of water to its ability to act as a solvent
pishuonlain [190]

Explanation:

Water (H2O) as a polar covalent molecule has its arrangement of oxygen and hydrogen atoms where one end (hydrogen) has a partially positive charge while the other side (oxygen) had a partially negative charge.

It is also capable of forming hydrogen bonds with polar molecules. Each water molecule can form two hydrogen bonds involving their hydrogen atoms and two further hydrogen bonds using the hydrogen atoms attached to neighboring water molecules.

when using parallax distance is calculated from the sun and not earth do you think this matters? explain your answer.
Elden [556K]

When using parallax, astronomers calculate distance from the sun and not earth to improve on the accuracy of their measurement, since parallax angle decreases as star distance increases.

<h3>What is parallax distance?</h3>

Parallax enables astronomers to measure the distances of far away stars by using trigonometry.

<h3>Why does astronomers measure parallax distance from sun?</h3>

As the distance of star increases, the parallax angle decreases, and great degree of accuracy is required for its measurement.

So taking a refence from the earth instead of the sun will impact the accuracy of their measurement.

Thus, when using parallax, astronomers calculate distance from the sun and not earth to improve on the accuracy of their measurement, since parallax angle decreases as star distance increases.
