First, convert the ft to standard units of meters.
1 foot = <span>0.3048 meters
Therefore,
484 ft = 147.5232 meters

Then, we will use the laws of motion to calculate the time:
x = 0.5 at^2
where:
x is the displacement
a is the gravity (9.8 m/sec^2)
t is the time taken
Substitute in the equation with the givens to calculate the time as follows:
147.5232 = (0.5 x 9.8) t^2
t^2 = 147.5232 / (0.5 x 9.8)
t^2 = 30.11 seconds
t = 5.49</span>

<u>Note that</u>:

The gravitational potential energy = mgh

where m: is the mass, g: the acceleration due to the gravity and h is the height from the earth surface

Then, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by increasing the mass or the height from the earth surface

<u>In our question</u>, we can increase the gravitational potential energy by

<u>A) Strap a boulder to the car so that it wights more.</u>

Whats the difference between identical and fraternal twins
IrinaK [193]
Twin type has less to do with what twins look like and more to do with how they formed.
Identical, or monozygotic, twins form when a single fertilized egg splits and develop as two babies in the uterus. Identical twins originate from the same combination of cells and have the same genetic origin. They are ALWAYS the same sex, two girls/two boys. They may look very similar and it may be difficult to tell them apart.
Fraternal, or dizygotic, twins are two individuals from the same pregnancy who from TWO SEPARATE eggs fertilized by TWO SEPARATE SPERM. The genetic similarity between fraternal twins is the same as any two siblings, about 50 percent. They can be boys, girls, or one of each.

MaRussiya [10]

Answer: the particles are more orderly in region 1

Explanation: region 1 is when the substance is a solid and as it is heated the particles move further apart and have more kinetic energy.

Here we can say that there is no external torque on this system

So here we can say that angular momentum is conserved

so here we will have

I_1\omega_1 = I_2\omega_2

now we have

I_1 = mr^2

I_1 = (1kg)(0.05^2)

I_1 = 25\times 10^{-4} kg m^2

similarly let the final distance is "r"

so now we have

I_2 = mr^2

I_2 = 1r^2

now from above equation we have

(25\times 10^{-4})37 = (r^2)(58)

r = 0.04 m

so final distance is 0.04 m between them

What geological feature can be created by a divergent boundary
VARVARA [1.3K]
<span>Divergent plate boundaries are locations where plates are moving away from one another. This occurs above rising convection currents. The rising current pushes up on the bottom of the lithosphere, lifting it and flowing laterally beneath it. This lateral flow causes the plate material above to be dragged along in the direction of flow. At the crest of the uplift, the overlying plate is stretched thin, breaks and pulls apart. hope this helps
