Answer: for insulation of heat
Explanation:
Windows in cold countries have double glazing windows to provide a barrier against the outside temperature by creating a buffer zone between two glasses.
The air or any other gas-filled between the glasses act as an insulator and offer great resistance to outside temperature thereby maintaining the inside temperature intact.
Consider the upward direction of motion as positive and downward direction of motion as negative.
a = acceleration due to gravity in downward direction = - 9.8 
v₀ = initial velocity of rock in upward direction = ?
v = final velocity of rock at the highest point = 0 
t = time to reach the maximum height = 4.2 sec
Using the kinematics equation
v = v₀ + a t
inserting the values
0 = v₀ + (- 9.8) (4.2)
v₀ = 41.2 
The earth is so round that we can run around it in five million days
The friction between the two objects creates heat.
