<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

 = 3.73 seconds

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Using the equation;

v = u + at

where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity and a is the acceleration due to gravity (-g) and t is the time taken.

Therefore;

v = u - gt

Thus;

v = 24.5 m/s, u = 12.1 m/s, a = -g = 9.8 m/s²

-24.5 m/s = 12.1 - 9.8 × t

36.6 = 9.8 t

t = 36.6/9.8

 = 3.73 seconds

Keeping in mind that not all flasks are vacuum, Please help me explain how other flasks prevent heat loss?​
lidiya [134]
The silver coating on the inner bottle prevents heat transfer by radiation, and the vacuum between its double wall prevents heat moving by convection. The thinness of the glass walls stops heat entering or leaving the flask by conduction.

The state in which a star's gravitational collapse is balanced between gravity pushing inward and gas pressure pushing outward i
Andrew [12]
The relation between temperature and pressure is called the "equation of state of the gas". or "Hydrostatic equilibrium in ordinary star". Take for example a balloon, it will have a larger spherical shape, if the pressure inside exerted by the gas on a wall of a balloon balance the inward force exerted by the outside atmospheric pressure.  In a dying star which is being compressed by gravity, the gas is being squeezed so the molecules is moving rapidly, resulting to a very high temperature, and this provide a balance that counteract or balances the compressive force of gravity. The very high temperature inside the star is needed to balance the force of gravity, and it is provide by "nuclear fusion energy" or else the star would collapse under the force of gravity. Depending on the size or mass of the star, it will either become, a "neutron star" or a "black hole".

How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction?
shtirl [24]

Answer: Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward.

Explanation:

Reflection is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when it is exposed to a bounce off barrier. Refraction can be defined as the change in the direction of the wave when the wave passes through one medium to another. Diffraction is a process in which the direction of the wave changes when the wave passes through a particular opening near the barrier.
