Here's a formula that's simple and useful, and if you're really in
high school physics, I'd be surprised if you haven't see it before. 
This one is so simple and useful that I'd suggest memorizing it,
so it's always in your toolbox.

This formula tells how far an object travels in how much time,
when it's accelerating:

               Distance = (1/2 acceleration) x (Time²).

                           D = 1/2 A T²

For your student who dropped an object out of the window,

     Distance = 19.6 m
     Acceleration = gravity = 9.8 m/s²

                                              D = 1/2 G T²

                                          19.6 =   4.9   T²

Divide each side by 4.9 :       4  =           T²

Square root each side:           2  =          T

When an object is dropped in Earth gravity,
it takes  2  seconds to fall the first 19.6 meters.

Earth's gravity is 9.807 m/s²

Using this we can divide 19.6/9.807 to get 1.999 seconds or two if you round.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer: for insulation of heat

Explanation:

Windows in cold countries have double glazing windows to provide a barrier against the outside temperature by creating a buffer zone between two glasses.

The air or any other gas-filled between the glasses act as an insulator and offer great resistance to outside temperature thereby maintaining the inside temperature intact.

How do an object's mass<br> and velocity relate to its<br> momentum?
uysha [10]
Momentum depends upon the variables mass and velocity. In terms of an equation, the momentum of an object is equal to the mass of the object times the velocity of the object.
