Answer:
b. v = 0, a = 9.8 m/s² down.
Explanation:
Hi there!
The acceleration of gravity is always directed to the ground (down) and, near the surface of the earth, has a constant value of 9.8 m/s². Since the answer "b" is the only option with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s² directed downwards, that would solve the exercise. But why is the velocity zero at the highest point?
Let´s take a look at the height function:
h(t) = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 g · t²
Where
h0 = initial height
v0 = initial velocity
t = time
g = acceleration due to gravity
Notice that the function is a negative parabola if we consider downward as negative (in that case "g" would be negative). Then, the function has a maximum (the highest point) at the vertex of the parabola. At the maximum point, the slope of the tangent line to the function is zero, because the tangent line is horizontal at a maximum point. The slope of the tangent line to the function is the rate of change of height with respect to time, i.e, the velocity. Then, the velocity is zero at the maximum height.
Another way to see it (without calculus):
When the ball is going up, the velocity vector points up and the velocity is positive. After reaching the maximum height, the velocity vector points down and is negative (the ball starts to fall). At the maximum height, the velocity vector changed its direction from positive to negative, then at that point, the velocity vector has to be zero.

Given data
Length of tube L=0.632 m
Speed of sound v=344 m/s
To find
Fundamental frequency f
Solution
The fundamental frequency of the tube can be given as:
Answer:
A) d_o = 20.7 cm
B) h_i = 1.014 m
Explanation:
A) To solve this, we will use the lens equation formula;
1/f = 1/d_o + 1/d_i
Where;
f is focal Length = 20 cm = 0.2
d_o is object distance
d_i is image distance = 6m
1/0.2 = 1/d_o + 1/6
1/d_o = 1/0.2 - 1/6
1/d_o = 4.8333
d_o = 1/4.8333
d_o = 0.207 m
d_o = 20.7 cm
B) to solve this, we will use the magnification equation;
M = h_i/h_o = d_i/d_o
Where;
h_o = 3.5 cm = 0.035 m
d_i = 6 m
d_o = 20.7 cm = 0.207 m
Thus;
h_i = (6/0.207) × 0.035
h_i = 1.014 m
Answer:
B. - 0.328
Explanation
Potential Energy:<em> This is the energy of a body due to position.</em>
<em>The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).</em>
<em>It can be expressed mathematically as</em>
<em>Ep = mgh........................... Equation 1</em>
<em>Where Ep = potential energy, m = mass of the coin, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity,</em>
<em>Given: m = 2.74 g = 0.00274 kg, h = 12.2 m, g = 9.8 m/s²</em>
Substituting these values into equation 1
Ep = 0.00274×12.2×9.8
Ep = 0.328 J.
Note: Since the potential energy at the surface is zero, the potential Energy with respect to the surface = -0.328 J
The right option is B. - 0.328

Ionic compounds are made up of two charged species, a cation (+) and an anion (–).
The charges must balance out to zero for a stable ionic compound, because ionic bonds are formed between two charged species. They form in ratios according to their charges to balance out.
