Answer:

gravitational waves are ripples in spece-time caused primarily when objects are accelerated and the energy for the acceleration is transpoted as gravitational radiation.

they are difficult to detect because they require very sensitive technology or you will have to wait unitl black holes collide.

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

=3.5 m/s

Explanation:

y = x tanθ - 1/2 g x² / (u²cos²θ )

y = 0.25 , x = 0.5, θ = 40°

.25 = .50 tan40 - .5 x 9.8x x²/ u²cos²40

.25 = .42 - 2.0875/u²

u = 3.5 m / s.
