Answer: 7.41 m/s

Explanation: By using the law of of energy, kinetic energy of the brick as it falls equals the potential energy before falling.

Kinetic energy = mv²/2, potential energy = mgh

mv²/2 = mgh

v²/2 = gh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

Where g = 9.8 m/s², h = 2.80m

v = √2×9.8×2.8 = 7.41 m/s

The acceleration due to gravity on earth will decrease as which of the following occurs. The mass of the object decreases. The d
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The distance of the object to the center of the earth increases.

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is given by:

g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

r is the distance of the object from the Earth's centre

We notice that:

- g does not depend on the mass of the object

- g is inversely proportional to r

This means that if the distance of the object from the Earth's centre increases, g decreases. So, the correct option is

The distance of the object to the center of the earth increases.

The graph below plots four main sequence stars according to their luminosity and temperature.
saul85 [17]
There is a positive correlation between luminosity and mass of stars, meaning the more luminous a star is, the more massive it is likely to be as well. Given this, the masses of the stars should be in descending order of brightness. 

Star 1 is the most luminous, so it should be heaviest, and the luminosity descends to Star 4.
Option B is the only chart that conforms to this, so it is the answer. 

Answer is B

Once juno reaches jupiter, what is the minimum amount of time it takes for the transmitted signals to travel from the spacecraft
Komok [63]

In very very very round figures . . .

-- Jupiter is about 5.2 times as far from the sun as the earth is.

-- So when Jupiter and the EARTH are aligned in both orbits, Jupiter is about

(4.2) x (150 million kilometers) = 630 million kilometers

Time = (distance) / (speed)

The speed of light and radio is 300,000 km/second

Time = (630 million / 300 thousand)

<em>Time = 2,100 seconds</em>

That's 35 minutes.
