Answer:

7 seconds

Explanation:

Let's first write down what we have so that we can choose the correct equation of linear motion

initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

distance (x) = h = 240 m

acceleration (a) = g = 9.81 m/s²

s = ut + \frac{at^{2} }{2} \\\\240 = (0)(t) + \frac{9.81t^{2} }{2}\\ \\9.81t^{2} = 480\\\\t = 6.99s\\\\t = 7 s

240 = 0+1/2 (-9.8t

240 = -4.9t

<span>240/-4.9 = t</span><span>
</span>49.0 = t

t= 7.0s

15. Some people have observed that animal behavior changes just before an earthquake. What might explain this?
Ber [7]

Answer:

15: Animals are able to detect the first of an earthquake's seismic waves—the P-wave, or pressure wave, that arrives in advance of the S-wave, or secondary, shaking wave. This likely explains why animals have been seen snapping to attention, acting confused or running right before the ground starts to shake.

16: No, it is not even remotely true. Microwaves cook food from the outside in, just like a regular oven. In fact, most of the cooking on the inside of the food, depending on its thickness, is done by heat conduction from the outside surfaces inwards, as the microwaves do not actually penetrate that far into the food.

PLEASE I REALLY NEED HELP!
Talja [164]

Answer:

v=\dfrac{1200}{t}\ m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The car traveled a total of 1,200 meters during this test.

We need to find the average speed of the car. The average speed of the car is given by total distance covered divided by the time taken. So,

v=\dfrac{1200}{t}\ m/s

But putting the value of t we can find the average speed of the car.
