Explanation:
since both the teammates are of the same height, their height won't matter. Because now the basketball won't cover any vertical distance.
We have to calculate its range the horizontal distance covered by it when tossed from one teammate to the other.
range can be calculated by the formula :-
u is the velocity during its take off and 
is the angle at which its thrown
Given that
- u = 8m/ s
- = 40°
calculating range using the above formula
value of sin 80 = 0. 985
Hence,
The correct answer is:
c. convection.
The heating of magma and the continuous cycle of evolution of the magma creating a convection current is the reason for the evolution of Earths tectonic plates.
Explanation:
Tectonic plates are ready to move because the Earth's lithosphere has higher strength than the underlying asthenosphere. Lateral density changes in the mantle appear in convection. Plate movement is believed to be driven by a succession of the motion of the seafloor apart from the extended ridge (due to variations in topography and density of the crust.

A single fixed pulley can be used to raise or lower lightweight objects.
Option b
<u>Explanation:</u>
A pulley is a simple machine tool which is used to make lifting or lowering tasks easy. A single fixed pulley is a system involving only one pulley fixed on a constant rigid support with a rope wrapped around the wheel. Such a system can be used only to change the direction of applied force in raising or lowering small, lightweight objects which need minimal work force.
A single fixed pulley system helps only in redirecting the applied force direction by using a rope and wheel assembly. The work done in such a case remains the same and hence it is not preferred to use it in lifting heavy objects. Neither is the required force reduced in case of a single fixed pulley system. A movable pulley helps in achieving (A) and (C).
Answer:
B. x - t graph
Explanation:
A position-time (x-t) graph is a graph of the position of an object against (versus) time.
Generally, the slope of the line of a position-time (x-t) graph is typically used to determine or calculate the velocity of an object.
An instantaneous velocity can be defined as the rate of change in position of an object in motion for a short-specified interval of time. Thus, an instantaneous velocity is a quantity that can be found by measuring the slope of a line that is tangent to a point on the graph.
Hence, the x - t graph also referred to as the position-time graph is used for determining the instantaneous velocity from the slope.
<u>For example;</u>
Given that the equation of motion is S(t) = 4t² + 2t + 10. Find the instantaneous velocity at t = 5 seconds.
Solution.
Differentiating the equation, we have;
Substituting the value of "t" into the equation, we have;
S(5) = 42 m/s.
