Answer:

Final speeds are equal to each other.

Explanation:

Both objects experiment a change in their velocities because of gravity. Let model each object by following equations:

Object A - Throw Up

v = -\sqrt{v_{o}^{2}+2\cdot g \cdot h}

Object B - Throw Down

v = -\sqrt{v_{o}^{2}+2\cdot g \cdot h}

Where h is the height difference between the top of the building and the street. Let consider upward speed positive.

Final speeds are equal to each other.

Answer:

The two objects are traveling at the same speed.

Explanation:

Neglecting air resistance, an object that is thrown up from the top of a tall building has the same speed as the second object thrown down from the top of the same tall building since the initial speed is the same.

The object thrown up is not traveling faster neither is the object thrown down traveling faster.  

Therefore, the two objects will have the same speed when they hit the ground but their time of landing might be different.

What is the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind?
salantis [7]

We have that the speed over the ground of a mosquito flying 2 m/s relative to the air against a 2 m/s headwind is

X=0m/s

From the question we are told that

mosquito flying 2 m/s

against a 2 m/s headwind

Generally

The speed over the ground is the Flight Speed minus resistance speed

Generally the equation for the  speed over the ground  is mathematically given as

X=Flight Speed-resistance speed

Therefore

X=2-2

X=0m/s

Why does th ground and atmosphere get warm during the day
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The Greenhouse Effect Revisited. When solar energy strikes the planet during the day, the ground, highways and other objects get hot and absorb that energy. As the sun goes down, the Earth cools by giving off infrared radiation. Because greenhouse gases absorb part of this radiation, the atmosphere warms and keeps the Earth from getting too cold.

Consider an isolated system, by which we mean a system free of external forces. If the sum of the particle energies in the syste
Airida [17]

Answer:

The system's potential energy is -147 J.

Explanation:

Given that,

Energy = 147 J

We know that,

System is isolated and it is free from external forces.

So, the work done by the external forces on the system should be equal to zero.

W=0

We need to calculate the system's potential energy

Using thermodynamics first equation

\Delta U=W-\Delta E

Put the value into the formula

\Delta U=0-147

\Delta U=-147\ J

Hence, The system's potential energy is -147 J.
