Answer: height = 60.5 m

Explanation:

given that the

Initial velocity U = 18.5 m/s

Range = 38.9 m

Let us use second equation of motion under gravity

S = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Where S = range R

Since the motion is horizontal, g = 0

The equation is reduced to:

R = Ut

Make t the subject of formula

t = R/U

Substitute range R and U into the formula

t = 38.9/ 18.5

t = 2.1 s

To calculate the vertical height, we will consider g = 9.81 m/s^2 by using the same second equation of motion

h = Ut + 1/2gt^2

Substitute U, t and g into the formula

h = (18.5 × 2.1) + 1/2 × 9.8 × 2.1^2

h = 38.9 + 21.609

h = 60.51 m

The building is 60.51 metres tall.

Answer:

Weathering

Explanation:

The geologic process of breaking down rocks into smaller and smaller units or pieces is known as weathering.

The physical disintegration and chemical decomposition of rocks to form sediments and soils is known as weathering.

The agents of weathering are wind, water and glacier.

  • Chemical weathering entails the decomposition of rocks.
  • Mechanical weathering is the physical disintegration of rocks.

Therefore, weathering breaks down rocks.

Erosion removes the weathered materials.

Answer:

Option A nuclear

Explanation:

The rate of electricity production in nuclear power plant is much higher as compared to the rate of electricity generation in gas, wind and solar power plants.

Thus, in case where large amount of electricity is to be produced in a short period then one must rely on nuclear power plants.

Therefore, option A is correct
