Supposing the runner is condensed to a point and moves upward at 2.2 m/s.
It takes a time = 2.2/g = 2.2/9.8 = 0.22 seconds to increase to max height. 
Now looking at this condition in opposite - that is the runner is at max height and drops back to earth in 0.22 s (symmetry of this kind of motion). 
From what height does any object take 0.22 s to fall to earth (supposing there is no air friction)? 
d = 1/2gt²= (0.5)(9.8)(0.22)²= 0.24 m

If all of the forces acting on an object balance so that the net force is zero, then
nadya68 [22]
The answer is (A) the object must be at rest.

When all of the forces acting on an object balance, the net force is zero and hence the object will not move.

Yes, the direction might also change under some special circumstances.

Why is the overall charge of the atom neutral or zero?
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

this is because the neutrons do not have a charge, the things that have charge in an atom are electrons and protons.

and in the nucleus of an atom, there are protons and neutrons so you can see that A is not the answer

if you see the periodic table, you will know that the number of electrons and protons are equal, so the charges cancel each other out, hence the charge of an atom will be neutral

let me give you a tip which I got from my teacher, never write there is no charge in the atom, this suggests that there is no protons or electrons.

instead, write, the it is neutral

hope it helps if not please report it so that someone else gets to try it out

The weightlifter's internal store of energy decreased when he lifted the bar.
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The energy returns to the weightlifter's muscles, where it is dissipated as heat.

Explanation:

The energy returns to the weightlifter's muscles, where it is dissipated as heat. As long as the weightlifter controls the weight's descent, their muscles are acting as an overdamped shock absorber, as if the weight were sitting on a piston containing very thick fluid, slowly compressing it downward (and slightly heating up the fluid in the process). Since muscles are complicated biological systems and not simple pistons, they require metabolic energy to maintain tension throughout the controlled descent, so the weightlifter feels like they're putting energy into the weight, even though the weight's gravitational potential energy is being converted into heat within the lifter's muscles.

Calculate the kinetic energy in joules of a 1,500 kg car that is moving at a speed of 42 km/h
Rzqust [24]
Data:
KE (Kinetic Energy) = ? (Joule)
m (mass) = 1500 Kg 
v (speed) = 42 Km/h
converting to m/s (42 / 3.6), we have: v (speed) = 11.6 m/s

Formula:
K_{E} =   \frac{1}{2} m*v^2

Solving:
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} m*v^2
K_{E} =  \frac{1}{2} *1500*(11.6)^2
K_{E} = \frac{1}{2} *1500*134.56
K_{E} =  \frac{201840}{2}
\boxed{\boxed{K_{E} = 100920\:Joule}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark
