Answer:

73.5 m/s

Explanation:

The position of the first ball is:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = h + (0)(18) + ½ (-9.8)(18)²

y = h − 1587.6

The position of the second ball is:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

y = h + (-v) (18−6) + ½ (-9.8)(18−6)²

y = h − 12v − 705.6

Setting the positions equal:

h − 1587.6 = h − 12v − 705.6

-1587.6 = -12v − 705.6

1587.6 = 12v + 705.6

882 = 12v

v = 73.5

The second ball is thrown downwards with a speed of 73.5 m/s

What role do currents play in transporting heat? How does water temperature affect land nearby?
yarga [219]

When warm currents move over cool land surface, they dissipate heat due to the temperature gradient . They hence warm up the land they blow over. If a cold current blows over warm land, the land loses heat to the current. This is how currents distribute heat across the earth.


When the current blow from water to land, the current will be warm or cold depending on the water temperatures. Therefore, they will warm up or cool the adjacent land mass.

Rahul runs a distance of 12
Radda [10]

Answer:

Rita runs faster

Explanation:

To obtain the answer to the question given, we determine the speed of Rita. This can be obtained as follow:

Distance = 1.6 km

Time = 15 mins

Speed =?

Next, we shall convert 15 mins to hour. This can be obtained as follow:

60 mins = 1 h

Therefore,

15 mins = 15 mins × 1 h / 60 mins

15 mins = 0.25 h

Thus, 15 mins is equivalent to 0.25 h.

Finally, we shall determine speed of Rita as follow:

Distance = 1.6 km

Time = 0.25 h

Speed =?

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 1.6 / 0.25

Speed = 6.4 Km/h

Thus Rita's speed is 6.4 Km/h

Comparing the speed of Rahul and Rita

Rahul's speed = 4.5 km/h

Rita's speed = 6.4 Km/h

We can see that Rita's speed is greater than Rahul's speed. This simply indicates that Rita runs faster than Rahul.
