Answer:

11 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 1.5 s

Height (h) =..?

The height of the bridge can be obtained by using the following formula:

h =½gt²

h = ½ × 9.8 × 1.5²

= 4.9 × 2.25

= 11.025 ≈ 11 m

Thus, the height of the bridge is approximately 11 m

MaRussiya [10]
The intensity of the light has no connection with the photoelectric effect.

That's what was so baffling about it before the particle nature of light
was suspected ... a match with a blue flame might stimulate the
photoelectric effect, but a high-power red searchlight couldn't do it.

A. How does the speed of light in a vacuum change when observed from two different frames of reference?
anyanavicka [17]

a) It is absolute, so it does not change.

b) Inertial ones.

c) Inside the train the time will slow down relatively to the outside clock. So if one travel at nearly the speed if light for 2 hours on his clock, for outdoor observers it will look like 3 hours.

Taden has found a table of the atmospheric layers of the Sun. However, he can’t make out the names of the layers in the chart.
zhenek [66]

The sun is a ball of hot gases containing different kinds of elements at different cores. It has a very high temperature that radiates all throughout the Milky Way galaxy. The sun has three main parts; photosphere, chromospheres and corona. The outer core of a star located at the chromospheres contains mostly of hydrogen. Inside the hydrogen is helium then carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium silicon and the inert gas. The photosphere is scattered by the loose electrons in the corona’s plasma.
