Answer:

An object with 0 acceleration is accelerating in a direction that is opposite to a stated positive direction.

Explanation:

Acceleration is not always based on speeding up or slowing down (a constant speed is no acceleration at all), it's also based on direction. If you state that an object is positively accelerating when you throw it upwards, then it's negatively accelerating when it's falling even though it's velocity is increasing.

Explanation:

it's going backwards if positive is up then negative is down in ur case it's the opposite direction of forward

_______________ describes how much energy is required to raise an object's temperature. convection radiation conduction specific

Gelneren [198K]

Hello,

The answer should be option D "specific heat".

Reason:

Specific heat is what tells the person how my heat and or pressure is required to raised the objects temperature. Its not option A convection because I'm convection is mainly used as like the ozone layer and the suns rays. Its not option B radiation because radiation doesn't tell the person what temperature it needs in order for it to rise its more like its already rises and hot. Its also not option C because conduction is the process of a object heating another object therefore the answer is option D.

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

81. A 560-g squirrel with a surface area of 930cm2 falls from a 5.0-m tree to the ground. Estimate its terminal velocity. (Use a

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of squirrel $m=560 gm$

Surface area of squirrel $A=930 cm^2$

and the area which face $A_f=\frac{A}{2}=465 cm^2$

height of tree $h=5 m$

Coefficient of drag $C=1$

drag Force $F_d=\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2$

Terminal velocity is given

$F_d=mg$

$\frac{1}{2}C\cdot \rho \cdot A\cdot v^2=mg$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times m\times g}{\rho \times C\times A_f}}$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.560\times 9.8}{1.2\times 1\times 465\times 10^{-4}}}$

$v=13.9 m/s$

(b)Mass of person $m=56 kg$

$v^2-u^2=2gh$

$u=0$

$v=\sqrt{2gh}$

$v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 5}$

$v=9.89 m/s$

but misleading.

The pencil appears broken because light bends away from a straight line
when it crosses the boundary between air and water.</span>
