Answer:

Vf = 69.61 m/s

Explanation:

We will use the third equation of motion to solve this problem:

2gh = V_{f}^2 - V_{i}^2\\

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height of cliff = 247 m

Vf = final velocity = ?

Vi = initial velocity = 0 m/s (boulder breaks loose from rest)

Therefore,

(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)(247\ m) = V_{f}^2 - (0\ m/s)^2\\V_{f} = \sqrt{4846.14\ m^2/s^2}\\

<u>Vf = 69.61 m/s</u>

NEED HELP ASAP<br> thanks + BRAINLIST only for correct answer
Fantom [35]

Answer:

I. They come from sources across space

II. They travel in a straight line from their source.

III. They can be reflected by some types of material.

Explanation:

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

The following statements about light waves are true;

I. They come from sources across space.

II. They travel in a straight line from their source.

III. They can be reflected by some types of material. reflection occurs when a ray of light or wavefronts bounces off a smooth surface. Thus, when light hit a surface, it bounces back to the medium from which it was originally propagated with.

However, light waves cannot travel through all type of material except materials that are transparent or translucent but not opaque.

Two obiect accumulated a charge of
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

A. 181.24 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of hte electrostatic force between two charged objects is given by the equation

F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}

where

k is the Coulomb's constant

q1, q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges

r is the separation between the charges

In this problem, we have:

q_1=4.5\mu C=4.5\cdot 10^{-6}C is the magnitude of the 1st charge

q_2=2.8\mu C=2.8\cdot 10^{-6}C is the magnitude of the 2nd charge

r = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m is the separation between the charges

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric force is:

F=\frac{(9\cdot 10^9)(4.5\cdot 10^{-6})(2.8\cdot 10^{-6})}{(0.025)^2}=181.44 N

So, the closest answer is

A) 181.24 N

Boost your own ______
Leni [432]

Answer:

Self-confidence

Explanation:

Boost your own self-confidence by living your life, not watching others live their fake ones!

The other choices do not fit as well as self-confidence does, but it's also a common phrase to say "boost your own self-confidence."
