Answer:

v_o= 12 m/s

Explanation:

The ball experienced a constant acceleration motion, so we need to apply the following formula:

y=y_o+v_o*t+\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\\\vo=\frac{y-y_o-\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2}{t}\\\\v_o=\frac{0m-8m-\frac{1}{2}*(-9.81m/s^2)*(3.00s)^2}{3.00s}\\v_o=12m/s

Note: we set the acceleration of gravity as negative because it is going down.

the ball was thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 12 m/s

What is the relationship between the size of a predator population and the size of a prey population
Contact [7]
<span>Let's put it this way. Say you have a killer-whale and a penguin. Killer-whales are major predators to penguins. Now, say the killer-whale population increases. The penguins would be eaten more by the killer-whales, then causing a population decrease for the penguins. If the population decreases, they're won't be enough penguins, and they most likely will become extinct, as well as causing a population decrease for the killer-whales as well. Whereas, vis versa, they're were a killer-whale population decrease. The penguins would be less hunted, therefore, creating a population increase for the penguins.</span>

svetlana [45]

Answer:

(A) FM Radio had a somewhat shorter ranger than AM radio, but better sound quality.

Explanation:

FM Radio was invented in 1933 by Edwin Armstrong who was an American engineer. FM stands for frequency modulation and AM stands for Amplitude Modulation.

FM is used for most broadcasts of music and FM radio stations use a very high-frequency range of radio frequencies.

In FM Radio, the sound is transmitted through changes in frequency. Both FM and AM radio signals experience frequent change in amplitude, they are far less noticeable on FM.

When switching between stations, FM antenna is alternating between different frequencies, and not amplitudes and this produces a much clearer sound and allows for smoother transitions with little to no audible static.

FM signals can be interfered by barriers and this could affect the signal strength. FM Radio signals are more clearer in a mountainous area that has no barrier.

AM radio was able to carry signals farther than AM radio.

Bad White [126]
A) Agreed. 
<span>b) Value agreed but units should be W (watts). </span>

<span>c) Here's one method... </span>

<span>15 miles = 24140 m </span>

<span>1 gallon of gasoline contains 1.4×10⁸ J. </span>

<span>So moving a distance of 24140m requires gasoline containing 1.4×10⁸ J </span>

<span>Therefore moving a distance of 1m requires gasoline containing 1.4×10⁸/24140 = 5800 J </span>

<span>Overcoming rolling resitance for 1m requires (useful) work = force x distance = 1000x1 = 1000J </span>

<span>So 5800J (in the gasoline) provides 1000J (overcoming rolling resistance) of useful work for each metre moved. </span>

<span>Efficiency = useful work/total energy supplied </span>
<span>= 1000/5800 </span>
<span>= 0.17 (=17%) </span>

It takes 15 min to drive 6.0 mi in a straight line to the local hospital. It takes 10 min to go the last 3.0 mi, 2.0 min to go t
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

36.87 km/h

Explanation:

Convert all the units in SI system

1 mile = 1609.34 m

d1 = 6 mi = 9656.04 m

t1 = 15 min = 15 x 60 = 900 s

d2 = 3 mi = 4828.02 m

t2 = 10 min = 10 x 60 = 600 s

d3 = 1 mi = 1609.34 m

t3 = 2 min = 2 x 60 = 120 s

d4 = 0.5 mi = 804.67 m

t4 = 0.5 min = 0.5 x 60 = 30 s

Total distance, d = d1 + d2 + d3 + d4

d = 9656.04 + 4828.02 +  1609.34 + 804.67 = 16898.07 m = 16.898 km

total time, t = t1 + t2 + t3 + t4

t = 900 + 600 + 120 + 30 = 1650 s = 0.4583 h

The ratio of the total distance covered to the total time taken is called average speed.

Average speed = 16.898 / 0.4583 = 36.87 km/h
