Answer:

The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 feet.

Explanation:

<h3>We apply the free fall formula to the ball: </h3><h3>y=v_{o} *t+\frac{1}{2} *g*t^{2}</h3><h3>y: The vertical distance the ball moves at time t  </h3><h3>v_{o}i: Initial speed </h3><h3>g=Gravity acceleration=9.8*(\frac{\frac{1ft}{0.305m} }{s^{2} } )</h3>

Known information

We know that the vertical distance (y) that the ball moves in 9,5s  is equal to height of Sears Tower (h).  

Too we know that the ball is released from rest, then,v_{0}=0

Height of Sears Tower calculation:

We replace  in the equation 1 the data following;

y=h

v_{o} =0

g=32,1\frac{ft}{s^{2} }

t= 9,5s

h=0*9.5+\frac{1}{2} *32.1*9.5^{2}

h=1448.5 ft

Answer: The height of Sears Tower is 1448.5 ft

Yuliya22 [10]

The magnet will be a useful tool to pick the paper clips because the magnet can attract the paper clips.

<h3>Attraction of magnets</h3>

The like poles of magnets repel while unlike poles of magnets attracts. Magnets attracts irons or metallic materials.

The paper clips are mettalic or made of iron and hence the magnet will attract them.

There we can conclude that the magnet will be a useful tool to pick the paper clips because the magnet can attract the paper clips and will help to gather them together for easy picking.
