Answer:

B. 0.16 m

Explanation:

The vertical distance by which the player will miss the target is equal to the vertical distance covered by the dart during its motion.

Since the dart is thrown horizontally, the initial vertical velocity is zero:

v_y = 0

While the horizontal velocity is

v_x = 15 m/s

The horizontal distance covered is

d_x = 2.7 m

Since the dart moves by uniform motion along the horizontal direction, the time it takes for covering this distance is

t=\frac{d_x}{v_x}=\frac{2.7 m}{15 m/s}=0.18 s

along the vertical direction, the motion is a uniformly accelerated motion with constant downward acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2, so the vertical distance covered is given by

d_y = \frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.8 m/s^)(0.18 s)^2=0.16 m

3. the definition of the FREQUENCY of a sound is​
sergiy2304 [10]
Definition: Frequency is the measurement of the number of times that a repeated event occurs per unit of time. Sound moves through a medium such as air or water as waves. It is measured in terms of frequency and amplitude. Frequency, sometimes referred to as pitch, is the number of times per second that a sound pressure wave repeats itself.

Una barra de aluminio que esta a 78 GRADOS CENTIGRADOS entra en contacto con una barra de cobre de la misma longitud y área que
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Al llegar a su equilibrio térmico ambas barran tendrán una temperatura de 53 grados centígrados.

Explanation:

Dado que una barra de aluminio que está a 78 grados centígrados entra en contacto con una barra de cobre de la misma longitud y área que esta a 28 grados centígrados, y posteriormente se lleva acabo la transferencia de energía entre ambas barras llegando a su equilibrio térmico, para determinar la temperatura a la que ambas barras llegarán se debe realizar el siguiente cálculo:

(78 + 28) / 2 = X

106 / 2 = X

53 = X

Por lo tanto, al llegar a su equilibrio térmico ambas barran tendrán una temperatura de 53 grados centígrados.

How was the formation of the outer planets affected by their distance from the sun?
djverab [1.8K]

The formation of the outer planets are affected by their distance from the sun with having them to maintain the lighter elements that they are composed of such as the hydrogen and helium, having them far away will also make their planet more cooler as the sun is distant from them.
