Answer:

h=25.52\times10^6 m

Explanation:

Initial speed, v = 10 x 10^3 m/s

Mass of the earth, M = 6 x 10^24 kg

Radius of the earth, R = 6.4 x 10^6 m

Maximum from the surface of earth, h = ?

Let  m = Mass of the projectile

Solution:

Potential energy at maximum height =  ( Potential + Kinetic energy ) at the surface

-G M m / ( R + h )=- G M m / R + (1/2) m v^2

- G M / ( R + h ) = - G M / R + (1/2) v^2

-2\times G M / ( R + h ) = ( - 2 G M / R ) + v^2

-2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}/ ( R + h )

=( (- 2\times 6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}) /(6.4\times10^6)} +10000^2

=-2.50625\times10^7 J

=- 8\times10^{14} / ( R + h )=-2.50625\times 10^7

R+h=31.92\times10^{6}

h=31.92\times10^{6}-6.4\times10^6

h=25.52\times10^6 m

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Einstein's general theory of relativity is the theory behind black holes has been tested with a wide range of experiments of which all confirm the predictions the theory makes. We cannot see black holes phenomena inside the event horizon, we do observe things outside this limit.

Black holes in binary star systems leave signs of their presence on neighboring star thats detected and the signs include X-ray emissions, accretion disks, and large orbit perturbations.

this is the evidence that astronomers and physicists have to show that the theory about black holes is correct.

For the answer to the question, ergonomics<span> is the science of fitting the job to the worker. When there is a mismatch between the physical requirements of the job and the physical capacity of the worker, work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) can result. Ergonomics is the practice of designing equipment and work tasks to conform to the capability of the worker, it provides a means for adjusting the work environment and work practices to prevent injuries before they occur.</span>

RideAnS [48]

Pick any free letter for each trait. For example, "A" for the dominant allele and "a" for the recessive allele for the number of arms. Assuming complete dominance, the genotype for the dominant trait will always have at least one "capital" allele, so a creature with 2 arms would have genotype either AA (homzygous dominant) or Aa (heterozygous), while a creature with the recessive trait of having 4 arms will always be homzygous recessive with genotype aa.
