13.06m

Explanation:

Given parameters:

initial velocity u = 0

final velocity v = 16m/s

Unknown;

height of the hill = ?

Solution:

We are going to apply one of the laws of motion to solve this problem;

    V² = U² + 2gH

where V is the final velocity

           U is the initial velocity

           g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

           H is the height

since initial velocity is zero;

          V² = 2gH

   To find the height;

             H = \frac{V^{2g} }{y}

   

              H = \frac{16^{2} }{2 x 9.8} = 13.06m

A plane leaves the airport in Galisteo and flies 160 km at 66.0 ∘ east of north; then it changes direction to fly 260 km at 49.0
user100 [1]

<u>The question doesn't have any particular requirement, but we'll compute the displacement of the plane from its initial and final landing point in the pasture </u>

Answer:

\displaystyle |\vec{r}|=321.464\ km

\displaystyle \theta =-19.395^o

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

The vector displacement \vec r is a measure of the change of position of a moving object. The displacement doesn't depend on the path followed, only on the final and initial positions. Its scalar counterpart, the distance, does measure the total space traveled and considers all the changes in the direction taken by the object. To find the displacement, we must add all the particular displacements by using vectors.

The plane first flies 160 km at 66° east of north. To find the vector expression of this displacement, we must know the angle with respect to the East direction or North of East. Knowing the angle East of North is 66°, the required angle is 90°-66°=34°

The first vector is expressed as

\displaystyle \vec{r_1}=\left \langle 160^o\ cos34^o, 160\ sin34^o \right \rangle

\displaystyle \vec{r_1}=\left \langle 132.646, 89.471 \right \rangle

The second displacement is 260 km at 49° South of East. This angle is below the horizontal respect to the reference, thus we use -49°.  

The second vector is expressed as:

\displaystyle \vec{r_2}=\left \langle 260\ cos(-49^o), 260\ sin(-49^o)\right \rangle

\displaystyle \vec{r_2}=\left \langle 170.575,-196.224\right \rangle

The total displacement is computed as the vectorial sum of both vectors

\displaystyle \vec{r}=\vec{r_1}+\vec{r_2}=\left \langle 132.646+170.575\right \rangle+ \left \langle89.471-196.224\right \rangle

\displaystyle \vec{r}=\left \langle 303.221,-106.753\right \rangle\ km

The magnitude of the total displacement is

\displaystyle |\vec{r}|=\sqrt{303.221^2+(-106,753)^2}

\displaystyle |\vec{r}|=321.464\ km

And the direction is

\displaystyle tan\ \theta =\frac{-106.753}{303.221}=-0.352

\displaystyle \theta =-19.395^o

The heating of Venus led to a further release of ______ from its surface. With nowhere for the greenhouse gas to go, Venus ended
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The answer would be B

Explanation:

The atmosphere of Venus traps in lots of what from the Sun, it is the hottest planet in our solar system because of this. CO2 is a greenhouse gas and traps in heat. So B would be your answer.

Why do materials absorb some frequencies of electromagnetic radiation and not others?
AlekseyPX
Well energy absorption by a material depends upon their atomic properties. Energy is absorbed in discrete quanta of energy as predicted by quantum mechanics only if the corresponding energy state is available either it is absorbed by electrons or nucleus depends whether it can go to permissible energy state, if not system can't absorb energy at all.
