A ball is thrown with an initial upward velocity of 5 m/s.

Answer:

A ball is thrown at an initial height of 5 feet with an initial upward velocity at 29 ft/s. lets assume that  balls height h (in feet) after t seconds is give by:

<u>h= 5 + 29t -16t^2</u>

Explanation:

h= 5 + 29t -16t^2

 

a time when the ball's height will be 17 ft

 

17 = 5 + 29t -16t2

 

0 = -17 + 5 + 29t -16t2

 

0 = -12 + 29t - 16t2

 

Using the quadratic equation:

 

t = (-29±√(292-(4*(-16)*(-12))))÷2(-16)

 

 = (-29±√(841 - 768))÷(-32)

 

 = (-29±√(73))÷(-32)

 

 = (-29 + 8.544)÷(-32)   or   (-29 - 8.544)÷(-32)

 

 = (-20.456)÷(-32)         or   -37.544÷(-32)

 

 =  0.64                         or   1.17

 

So, the ball is at a height of 17 ft twice: once on the way up after 0.64 seconds and once on the way back down after 1.17 seconds.

Malik formed a hypothesis that an increase in atmospheric oxygen levels by 10% would cause red-legged grasshoppers to grow large
worty [1.4K]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The option C is the correct answer.

Which is, "He varies the nitrogen and carbon dioxide levels in the air from one trial to the next".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The hypothesis of Malik was about the effect of increased oxygen level on the growth of the red-legged grasshoppers.

So the areas of his experiment should be the:

  • Grasshopper type.
  • High oxygen level.
  • Rate of growth of grasshopper.

So all the given options are relevant to his experiment except the third one.

So varying the nitrogen and carbon dioxide level in air could not contribute in his experiment.

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

= (1.5 V) / (0.35 ohms)

= 4.28 Amperes.

==> The battery will not last long.

==> The ammeter is broken ... it's reading less than 0.25 Amps.

Rus_ich [418]

Most geologists accept radiometric dating techniques as valid because radioactive elements decay at a constant and measurable rate.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Scientists prefer radioactive dating to carbon dating because it is more accurate in measuring.  The analysis depends upon the radioactive decay of radioactive isotopes of any matter in a given rock or soil.

The parent atoms and daughter atoms are compared while studying, and hence age can be calculated easily. Radioactive decay depends upon the given half-life of the atom, which is a constant and is known. So, it would be very easy to calculate the number of progeny atoms and parent atoms and find out their age.
