The maximum height that is reached by an object thrown or jumped at a certain initial velocity can be calculated through the equation,

   2ad = Vf² - Vi²

Vf is zero (0) in this equation because this is the point at the velocity at the maximum height of the object.

Substituting the known values,
  2(a)(-16) = 0 - (3.6)²

The value of a from the equation is 0.405 m/s².

<em>Answer: 0.405 m/s²</em>

This situation has a basis such that the solid sphere and the hoop has the same mass. The analysis could be made<span> backwards . The ball will decelerate fastest, so not roll as high. The sphere will accelerate faster, but this also means it decelerates faster on the way up. Hence the answer is the hoop if the masses are equal </span>

Irina18 [472]
A. dependent variable

As the the independent variable (i.e. number of cats being sold) increases, the dependent variable (i.e. money made) will also increase. You can have 1,000,000 cats for sale and make no money, but you cannot make money without having sold some cats first.
Hope my weird example helped!

Which type of electromagnetic radiation has the highest frequency?
Likurg_2 [28]

Explanation:

As we know that relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

                  E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

This means that energy is inversely proportional to wavelength. So, more is the energy of an electromagnetic radiation less will be its wavelength.

Also,          f = \frac{c}{\lambda}

Hence, less will be the wavelength more will frequency of a radiation.

Gamma rays are the rays that have highest energy, small wavelength and highest frequency.

Thus, we can conclude that gamma rays are the electromagnetic radiation which has the highest frequency.
