Answer:

About 6.26m/s

Explanation:

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

Divide both sides by mass:

gh=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2

Since the point of equality of kinetic and potential energy will be halfway down the cliff, height will be 4/2=2 meters.

(9.8)(2)=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2 \\\\v^2=39.4 \\\\v\approx 6.26m/s

Hope this helps!

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Answer is It was deduced from the rate at which it glimmers.

Refer below.

Explanation:

The X-ray source Cygnus X-1 has a mass of at least 11 solar masses and a diameter of only about one-quarter the diameter of the Earth. With such a small diameter it must be a compact object, and with such a large mass it can't be a white dwarf or a neutron star, so a black hole is the only possibility remaining. The diameter of Cygnus X-1 found:

It was deduced from the rate at which it glimmers.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

the Hudson Bay was covered with alpine glaciers

Explanation:

During the last glacial period, large portions of North America were covered with ice. The majority of the ice was from the ice sheets that were covering Canada and the northern part of the United States, and the alpine glaciers on the mountain ranges. Hudson Bay was all frozen at this point of time. It was not covered with alpine glaciers though, instead it was covered with the ice of the extended ice sheets, with the ice cover reaching up to 2 km in thickness.
