Distance of fall from rest,
without air resistance              =  (1/2) (gravity) (time)²

                                             = (1/2) (9.8 m/s²) (95 sec)²

                                             =  (4.9 m/s²) (9,025 sec²)

                                             =        44,222.5 meters  .

The depth of the mine shaft is five times the height of Mt. Everest !

An aurora occurs when ____
ASHA 777 [7]

The short answer to how the aurora happens is that energetic electrically charged particles (mostly electrons) accelerate along the magnetic field lines into the upper atmosphere, where they collide with gas atoms, causing the atoms to give off light.

What is the Gravitational Potential Energy of a 30 kg box lifted 1.5 meters off the ground?
juin [17]

Answer:

<h2>441 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 30 × 9.8 × 1.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>441 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

293k

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the temperature to which the reaction must be heated to double the equilibrium constant.

To find this value, we will need to use the Van’t Hoff equation.

Humpback whales are known to produce a collection of elaborate and repeating sounds with frequencies starting at 20 Hz. The soun
jasenka [17]

Answer:

70 m.

Explanation:

Given,

Frequency, f = 20 HZ

speed of sound, v = 1400 m/s

wavelength of the waves = ?

we know,

v = f λ

\lambda= \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda= \dfrac{1400}{20}

\lambda=70\ m

Hence, the wavelength of the wave is equal to 70 m.
