The horizontal speed has no effect on how long it takes to reach the ground.
A bullet shot from a gun and a bullet dropped from the front end of the gun
at the same time as the shot both hit the ground at the same time.

The number that counts is the height from which it fell . . . the 1.25 m.

I'll use this very useful formula:

       Distance of free fall,
       starting from rest            = (1/2) · (gravity) · (time)²

                                  1.25 m  =  (1/2) · (9.8 m/s²) · (time)²

Divide each side
by   4.9 m/s²  :          1.25 m / 4.9 m/s²  =  time²

                                          0.2551 sec²  =  time²

Square root each side:       0.505 sec  =  time

It looks like the correct choice is approximately 'A'. (rounded)

what happens to the gravitational force when the distance between them stays the same and the mass of both objects is doubled
Dimas [21]

Answer:

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. If one of the masses is doubled, the force of gravity between the objects is doubled. increases, the force of gravity decreases.

The answer is -7m, but I don’t know how that’s the answer. Can anyone explain?
atroni [7]

Explanation:

At first it is in 14m position but position doesn't matter in displacement, similar case for time taken.

So at first it travels 6m in positive direction.

So displacement= 6m

Then it travels 13 in opposite or negative direction.

So displacement = 6 -13 m = -7 m

Hope it helps ya

The is the the distance between two crests or two troughs on a transverse wave. It is also the distance between compressions or
mixer [17]

Answer:

Wavelength

Explanation:

The wavelength of a transverse wave (where the oscillation occurs perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave) is defined as the distance between two consecutive crests ot two consecutive troughs.

In a longitudinal wave, where the oscillation occurs parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave, the wavelength is defined as the distance between two consecutive compressions or between two consecutive rarefactions.

Other important definitions for a wave are:

- Frequency: the number of complete cycles per second

- Period: the time needed for one complete cycle to occur

- Amplitude: the distance between the equilibrium position and the maximum displacement of the wave
