Answer:

a) u = 6 m/s

b) a = 4 m/s²

c) d(3) = 16 m

Explanation:

equation for the first second

distance will be the average velocity times the time of travel

8 = ½(u + (u + at))t    t is one second, so reduces to

8 = u + ½a

velocity at the end of the first second is

v = u + at = u + a

position equation for the second period is

12 = ½((u + a) + (u + a + at))t   t is one second so reduces to

12 = u + 3a/2

subtracting the first position equation from the second

12 - 8 = u + 3a/2 - (u + ½a)

a = 4 m/s²

8 = u + ½4

u = 6 m/s

in the third second

d = 6(3) + ½(4)(3²) - 8 - 12

d = 16 m

What body systems help these cells get the energy they need?
MakcuM [25]

The body systems that help cells get the energy they need are the digestive system and circulatory system. The first system is the digestive system because when you eat food, your body breaks it down using the stomach and other different parts of the digestive system.  The next one is the circulatory system because your blood carries the nutrients you acquired from food you digested to the cells throughout your body.

When landing from a jump, a basketball player of mass 82 kg has a velocity of 1.2 m/s right before they hit the ground. The play
saw5 [17]

Answer:

2361.6N

Explanation:

Mass of player = 82kg

Velocity = 1.2m/s

Kinetic energy of player:

= 1/2mv²

= 1/2*82*1.2²

= 41x1.44

= 59.04J

Final kinetic energy = 0

Change in kinetic energy

|∆k| = |0-59.04|

= 59.04

Workdone by the feet = fd

d = 0.025

Fd = 59.04

F = 59.04/0.025

= 2361.6N

This is his average force.

What important factor does the ozone layer serve in earth's atmosphere?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The Ozone layer is responsible for the absorption of harmful radiation from the sun before it hits the surface or exterior structure of our planet. It is known to be a belt of a known occurring gas, known as “ozone” which is sealed around the Earth’s atmosphere. It serves as a shield, which absorbs most of the sun’s ultraviolet radiation.
