Answer:

The ball remain in air for 3.06 seconds.

Maximum height reached = 22.94 m

Explanation:

We have equation of motion v = u + at

At maximum height, final velocity, v =0 m/s

Initial velocity = 15 m/s

acceleration = -9.81 m/s²

Substituting

0 = 15 -9.81 t

t = 1.53 s

Time of flight = 2 x 1.53 = 3.06 s

The ball remain in air for 3.06 seconds.

We also have equation of motion v² = u² + 2as

At maximum height, final velocity, v =0 m/s

Initial velocity = 15 m/s

acceleration = -9.81 m/s²

Substituting

0² = 15² - 2 x 9.81 x s

s = 22.94 m

Maximum height reached = 22.94 m

So first things first its c. because when two plates collide it causes a earthquake so u can rule those out and of course no not volcano so that's it u only have c left as your answer choice.

Two identical loudspeakers 2.30 m apart are emitting sound waves into a room where the speed of sound is 340 m/s. Abby is standi

Dimas [21]

Answer:

Abby is standing (4.5^2 + 2.3^2)^1/2 from the far speaker

D2 = 5.05 m from the far speaker

The difference in distances from the speakers is

5.05 - 4.5 = .55 m (Let y be wavelength, lambda)

n y = 4.5

(n + 1) y = 5.05 for the speakers to be in phase at smallest wavelength

y = .55 m subtracting equations

f = v / y = 340 / .55 = 618 / sec should be the smallest frequency

The particles in the atom that account for most of the mass of the atom are protons and

valkas [14]

Answer:

Neutrons

Explanation:

There are three particles that make up an atom, proton, neutron and electron. The mass of protons and neutrons is considered to be equal though in reality neutrons are heavier than protons; the mass of electrons is very less and ignored in the calculation of atomic mass.

A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area.

babunello [35]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Pressure is defined as:

$p=\frac{F}{A}$

where

F is the magnitude of the force perpendicular to the surface

A is the surface

Therefore, pressure is inversely proportional to the area of the surface:

$p\propto \frac{1}{A}$

this means that, assuming that the forces in the two situations (which have same magnitude) are both applied perpendicular to the surface, the force exerted over the smaller area will exert a greater pressure. Hence, the statement"

<em>"A force acting over a large area will exert less pressure per square inch than the same force acting over a smaller area"</em>

is true.
