A devout halloweener not only dressed as an astronaut, but travelled to the moon for the full experience. The astronaut jumps on

the moon with an initial upward velocity of 2.98m/s. If the acceleration of gravity on the moon is -1.62m/s2, what is the highest the astronaut jumps?

Answer:

2.78 m

Explanation:

At the peak, the velocity is 0.

Given:

a = -1.6 m/s²

v₀ = 2.98 m/s

v = 0 m/s

x₀ = 0 m

Find:

x

v² = v₀² + 2a(x - x₀)

(0 m/s)² = (2.98 m/s)² + 2(-1.6 m/s²) (x - 0 m)

x = 2.775 m

Rounded to 3 sig-figs, the astronaut halloweener reaches a maximum height of 2.78 meters.

How does a sound wave transfer energy to your ears ?
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

A. Particles in air move in circles as the wave moves forward.

B. Particles in air move forward but not backward as the wave moves

C. Particles in air move up and down as the wave moves forward.

✔ D. Particles in air move forward and backward as the wave moves

forward.

Explanation:

The waves transfer energy from the source of the sound, e.g. a drum, to its surroundings. Your ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles cause your ear drum to vibrate. The bigger the vibrations the louder the sound.

Distinguish between basic and derived units
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Base units are defined units based on specific objects or events in the physical world. Derived units are defined by combining base units.

Base units are defined by a particular process of measuring a base quantity whereas derived units are defined as algebraic combinations of base units. For example, length is a base quantity in both SI and the English system, but the meter is a base unit in the SI system only.

Which statement explains the polarity of a water molecule?
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D. The oxygen side is partially negative because electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.

Explanation:

The water molecule is polar by the virtue of covalent bonds and the hydrogen bonds within and between its molecule.

The oxygen side is partially negative because the electrons are pulled toward the oxygen side.

Between oxygen and hydrogen that makes up the water molecule, oxygen is more electronegative.

An electronegative atom has more affinity for electrons. Since the electrons in the molecule of water is shared between hydrogen and oxygen, the more electronegative specie which is water draws the electron more to itself.

This leaves a net negative charge on the oxygen atom.
