Answer:

h= 78.4 m

Explanation:

The ball moves with a uniformly accelerated movement in the vertical direction (y), we apply the following formulas:

vfy= v₀y+g*t Formula (1)

vfy²=v₀y²+2*g*h Formula (2)

h: hight in meters (m)    

t : time in seconds (s)

v₀y: initial speed in y  (m/s)  

vfy: final speed in y ( m/s   )

g: accelerationdue to gravity  (m/s² )

Known Data

v₀y= 0

t= 4 s

g= 9,8 m/s²

We apply the formula (1) to calculate vfy

vfy= v₀y+g*t

vfy= 0+ (9,8)*(4)

vfy= 39.2 m/s

We apply the formula (2) to calculate h

vfy²=v₀y²+2*g*h

(39.2)²=0+2*9.8*h

h = (39.2)²  /  (2*9.8)

h= 78.4 m

How could the action force of a canoe moving through water be increased?.
BaLLatris [955]
There are several actions that can be used to increase the action force of a canoe that is moving through water. One can increase the rate of striking or strike harder than before with a bigger paddle. Using a lighter canoe can also be helpful for increasing the speed. I hope the answer comes to your help.

What is the difference between light energy and heat energy​
MrRissso [65]

ANSWER:

What is the difference between heat and light? - Physics Stack ... Heat and light are different but they are both forms of energy. Heat is a form of kinetic energy contained in the random motion of the particles of a material. Light is a form of electromagnetic energy. As with other forms of energy, heat energy can be transformed into light energy and vice versa.

No air is the lightest

Helium is lighter than regular air that's why it goes up so then the regular air would be heaviest.

After the body has begun shivering, what explains why it would stop shivering?
Oksana_A [137]
The body shivers to produce energy and it uses the energy to keep it warm. The body would stop shivering when it has produced enough energy to keep it warm and the atmosphere around it has got warmer
