Answer:

3.07 m/s

Explanation:

We know that from kinematics equation

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as and here, a=g where v is the final velocity, u is the initial velocity, a is acceleration, s is the distance moved, g is acceleration due to gravity

Making u the subject then

u=\sqrt {v^{2}-2gs}

Substituting v for 6.79 m/s, s for 1.87 m and g as 9.81 m/s2 then

u=\sqrt {6.79^{2}-(2\times 9.81\times 1.87)}=3.068338313 m/s\approx 3.07 m/s

The atmosphere creates a cover over the earth preventing us from seeing space and it’s natural color and the light that is created by the sun reflected on the ocean creates the color that the sky appears to be blue

The property of matter that determines the direction of heat flow is the
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Temperature

Explanation:

The heat flows from high temperature to low temperature.So we can say that temperature is the property that decide the direction of heat flow.Like in the electric system current flow high voltage to low voltage ,so we can say that voltage is the property which determine the direction of current flow.

So the answer is Temperature.

A ball is thrown straight up with enough speed so that it is in the air for several seconds. Assume the positive direction is up
Andrew [12]

Answer:

a) v= 0 m/s b) v= 6.86 m/s

Explanation:

a) When the ball reaches to its highest point, under the influence of gravity, before starting to fall down, it momentarily comes to an stop (this is needed prior to change direction in any movement), so, applying the definition of acceleration, and replacing the acceleration a by g, we have:

vf = v₀ - g*t (1)

The minus sign means that the acceleration due to gravity is always downward, so if we assume that the positive direction is upwards it must be negative.

At the highest point, vf= 0.

b) Prior to solve this point, we need to know which is the time when the ball reaches to its highest point.

As we know vf=0, we can solve (1) for t, as follows:

th = v₀/g

Now, for a time that is 0.7 s before this time, applying the acceleration definition and solving for v again, we have:

v = v₀ -(g *(th-0.7 s)), but th= v₀/g, so we get:

v= v₀ -g((v₀/g)-0.7 s) = v₀ - v₀ + g*0.7 s

⇒ v=g*0.7 s = 9.8 m/s²*0.7 s

⇒ v = 6.86 m/s
