Answer:

After 2 seconds the velocity of the object is 0 m/s.

Explanation:

The velocity at 2 seconds later can be calculated as follows:

V_{f} = V_{0} - gt

Where:

V_{f}: is the velocity at 2 seconds

V_{0}: is the initial velocity = 20 m/s

g: is the gravity = 10 m/s²

t: is the time = 2 s

Hence, the final velocity is:

V_{f} = V_{0} - gt = 20 m/s - 10 m/s^{2}*2 s = 0 m/s

This value (0 m/s) means that the object has reached the maximum height.

Therefore, after 2 seconds the velocity of the object is 0 m/s.

I hope it helps you!

What characteristics determine how easily two substances change temperature
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer;

Amount of time the two substances are in contact

Area in contact between the two substances

Specific heat of the material that makes up the substances

Explanation;

The change in temperature of a substance is caused by heat energy. The change in temperature will depend on factors such as mass of the substance, the type of material it is made from, the time taken , specific heat of the material that makes the substance, and also the area of contact.

The amount of time the two substances are in contact affect the change in temperature such that if the two bodies are in contact for a longer time then a bigger change in temperature will be observed.

Specific heat capacity also determines the change in temperature that will be observed, such that a substance with a bigger specific heat capacity will record a small change in temperature.

The mass of an atom is ________________________.
alexandr402 [8]
The mass of an atom comes from the protons and neutrons that is found in the nucleus. The number of protons is the atomic number of an element. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the mass of an atom. For example, sodium’s atomic number is 11. This will tell us that sodium has 11 protons in it. The atomic mass of sodium is 23. So subtract 23 form 11 gives us 12. Therefore, there are 12 neutrons in sodium.

Two people travel from Columbus to Cleveland, one by car at an average velocity of 90km/h, and one by plane at an average veloci
Flura [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes , their displacement may be equal .

Suppose the displacement is AB where A is starting point and B is end point .

The car is covering the distance AB by going from A to B on straight line . On the other hand plane goes from A to C , then from C to D and then from D to B . In this way plane reaches B from A on a different path which is longer than path of the car . In the second case also displacement of plane is AB . In the second case distance covered is longer but displacement is same that is AB .
