The correct answer is c) 28 m/s.
Let's find the step-by-step solution. The motion of the monkey is an uniformly accelerated motion, with acceleration equal to g=9.81 m/s^2. The initial velocity of the monkey is zero, while the distance covered is S=40 m. Therefore, we can use the following relationship to find vf, the final velocity of the monkey:
2aS=v_f^2-v_i^2=v_f^2
from which
v_f= \sqrt{2aS}= \sqrt{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2 \cdot 40 m}=28 m/s

Why do you think football players are usually large in size?
kiruha [24]
Football players in the NFL are large in size due to their eating habits since as players they have to work out constantly to stay and shape and eat to gain weight and be strong, so its important for them to be strong against their opponents in gameplay. Football players sometimes take steroids which make their muscles stronger and harder, and also gives them a growth spurt but the effects are worse and makes them sicker, high blood pressure, and even more.

A bus and a bicycle have a head-on collision. Compare the force of impact between the bus and the bicycle; compare the accelerat
kati45 [8]

The force of impact is same for both bus and the bicycle. The acceleration of bicycle will be greater than the acceleration of bus.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The interaction that occurs between two objects refers to collision. this makes the two objects to come in contact with each other. The third law of Newton states that, when there occurs a collision between two objects, then the force that is applied on each object will be same. But, the direct in which the force is impacted will be in opposite direction.

The magnitude of the forces will be equal but the direction will not be same. The collision results in gaining the momentum by one object and losing momentum by another. The acceleration is mainly associated with the mass of the object. When the object has smaller mass, it will be accelerated more. In the given example, as bus is heavier than bicycle, the bicycle will have greater acceleration than the bus.
