Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy is converted to kinetic energy, assuming any losses.

Kinetic energy is given by ½mv²

Potential energy is given by mgh

Where m is the mass, v is the velocity, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

Equating kinetic energy to be equal to potential energy then

½mv²=mgh

V

Making v the subject of the formula

v=√(2gh)

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g and 10 m for h then

v=√(2*9.81*10)=14.0071410359145 m/s

Rounding off, v is approximately 14 m/s

What occurs during an exothermic change
Likurg_2 [28]
In an exothermic reaction, there is a transfer of energy to the surroundings in the form of heat energy. The surroundings of the reaction will experience an increase in temperature. Many types of chemical reactions are exothermic, including combustion reactions, respiration & neutralization reactions of bases & acids.

An example of a a predator in the Ethiopian Highlands ecosystem is the

Wolf.The wolf is a carnivore which acts as a predator to other smaller

animals in the ecosystem.

<h3>What is a Prey?</h3>

Preys are mostly smaller animals in which the predators feed on for food.

They are usually herbivores and primary consumers in the ecosystem.

Examples of Preys include:

  • Rodents

A block of mass 1.5 hangs at the of end of a weight cord suspended from the ceiling.what is the tension in the cord, and with wh
Len [333]

The tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.

<h3>What is the tension in the cord?</h3>

The tension in the cord is calculated as follows;

T = ma + mg

where;

  • a is the acceleration of the block
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • m is mass of the block

T = m(a + g)

T = 1.5(a + 9.8)

T = 1.5a + 14.7

Thus, the tension in the cord is (1.5a + 14.7) N.

If the block is at rest, the tension is 14.7 N.

<h3>Force of the force</h3>

The force with which the cord pulls is equal to the tension in the cord

F = T = m(a + g)

F = (1.5a + 14.7) N

If the block is stationary, a = 0, the tension and force of pull of the cord = 14.7 N.

Thus, the tension in the cord is 14.7 N and the force of pull of the cord is 14.7 N, assuming the block is stationary.
