So this is dealing with the conservation of energy. So you set kinetic energy equal to potential energy, so it looks like this:
1/2mv^2=mgh. The m's cancel out, so it is 1/2v^2=gh.
To find out what the height h is, divide g on both sides, so...
h=0.5v^2/g. v=22m/s, g=9.81m/s^2, so h=(0.5)(22^2)/(9.81)=24.67m
B. the distance the star is from Earth
Explanation:
The apparent magnitude of star is a function of its distance from the earth. It is one of the physical properties that is used to study a star.
The apparent magnitude of a star or other astronomical bodies is a measure of their brightness as seen from a location on the earth.
The apparent magnitude of a star depends on:
- Distance of the star from the location on earth.
- luminosity of the star
- the particles along the part of the star and earth that cuts off the light the earth receives.

The person does not sink into the snow because the force acts on a larger area so that the pressure is less
The edge of the sharp knife has a smaller area so the force acting on the knife produces a larger pressure

Answer:</h2>
<u>Friction:</u>
When an object slips on a surface, an opposing force acts between the tangent planes which acts in the opposite direction of motion. This opposing force is called Friction. Or in other words, Friction is the opposing force that opposes the motion between two surfaces.
The main component of friction are:
<u>Normal Reaction (R):
</u>
Suppose a block is placed on a table in the above picture, which is in resting state, then two forces are acting on it at that time.
The first is due to its weight mg which is working from its center of gravity towards the vertical bottom.
The second one is superimposed vertically upwards by the table on the block, called the reaction force (P). This force passes through the center of gravity of the block.
Due to P = mg, the box is in equilibrium position on the table.
<u>Coefficient of friction ( </u>μ )<u>:
</u>
The ratio of the force of friction and the reaction force is called the coefficient of friction.
Coefficient of friction, µ = force of friction / reaction force
μ = F / R
The coefficient of friction is volume less and dimensionless.
Its value is between 0 to 1.
<u>Advantage and disadvantage from friction force:
</u>
- The advantage of the force of friction is that due to friction, we can walk on the earth without slipping.
- Brakes in all vehicles are due to the force of friction.
- We can write on the board only because of the force of friction.
- The disadvantage of this force is that due to friction, some parts of energy are lost in the machines and there is wear and tear on the machines.
<u>How to reduce friction:
</u>
- Using lubricants (oil or grease) in machines.
- Friction can be reduced by using ball bearings etc.
- Using a soap solution and powder.
