Answer:

a= g = - 9.81 m/s2.

The following equations will be helpful:

a = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 at2 vf2 = vo2 + 2ad

When you substitute the specific acceleration due to gravity (g), the equations are as follows:

g = (vf - vo)/t d = vot + 1/2 gt2 vf2 = vo2 + 2gd

If the object is dropped from rest, the initial velocity ("vi") is zero. This further simplifies the equations to these:

g = vf /t d = 1/2 gt2 vf2 = 2gd

The sign convention that we will use for direction is this: "down" is the negative direction. If you are given a velocity such as -5.0 m/s, we will assume that the direction of the velocity vector is down. Also if you are told that an object falls with a velocity of 5.0 m/s, you would substitute -5.0 m/s in your equations. The sign convention would also apply to the acceleration due to gravity as shown above. The direction of the acceleration vector is down (-9.81 m/s2) because the gravitational force causing the acceleration is directed downward.

hope this info helps you out!

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Mid-ocean ridges

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Sea-floor spreading is the process by which molten material adds new oceanic crust to the ocean floor.
Mid-ocean ridge is an undersea mountain chain where new ocean floor is produced at a divergent plate boundary.
Mid ocean ridge occurs when convection currents rise in the mantle beneath the oceanic crust and create magma where two tectonic plates meet at a divergent boundary.

A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.93 km due east, 1.03 km due south, and 3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Magnitude of displacement = 2.07 km

Magnitude of average velocity = 1.17 kmph

Explanation:

Let east represent positive x axis and north represent positive y axis.

A bird watcher meanders through the woods, walking 1.93 km due east, 1.03 km due south, and 3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west.

1.93 km due wast

s ₁ = 1.93 i km

1.03 km due south

s₂ = -1.03 j km

3.84 km in a direction 52.8 ° north of west

s₃ = -3.84 cos 52.8 i + 3.84 sin 52.8 j = -2.32 i + 3.06 j km

Total displacement

s = s ₁+ s₂+ s₃ = 1.93 i - 1.03 j -2.32 i + 3.06 j = -0.39 i + 2.03 j

Magnitude of displacement, $=\sqrt{(-0.39)^2+2.03^2}=2.07km$

Time taken = 1.771 hour

Magnitude of average velocity, $=\frac{2.07}{1.771}=1.17km/hr$

Why is it important for a muscle to be attached to a fixed origin at one end and a moving insertion at the other? Discuss how th

vlabodo [156]

Muscles function only by contracting. This makes it necessary for one end of the muscle to be fixed and the other mobile.
Take the bicep for example.
Its origin is at the shoulder and its two heads connect to the bones of the forearm, the radius and ulna.
Now, had the muscle not been fixed at one end, and contracted, it would pull both our shoulder and forearm together resulting in an ineffective movement. The desired motion is to lift the forearm (proximal and distal movement) which can only be achieved if the bicep is fixed at the shoulder and allowed to move at the forearm.
