Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The motion under the influence of gravity is called projectile motion.

The acceleration due to gravity is constant through out the motion and it is always acting downwards.

When an athlete jumps and follow the projectile path, it always have the same horizontal velocity as there is no acceleration in the horizontal direction.

Also he has the vertical acceleration constant which is equal to the acceleration due to gravity and acts towards the center of earth.  

Option (b) is correct.

A projectile is fired vertically from Earth's surface with
scoray [572]

Answer:

h=25.52\times10^6 m

Explanation:

Initial speed, v = 10 x 10^3 m/s

Mass of the earth, M = 6 x 10^24 kg

Radius of the earth, R = 6.4 x 10^6 m

Maximum from the surface of earth, h = ?

Let  m = Mass of the projectile

Solution:

Potential energy at maximum height =  ( Potential + Kinetic energy ) at the surface

-G M m / ( R + h )=- G M m / R + (1/2) m v^2

- G M / ( R + h ) = - G M / R + (1/2) v^2

-2\times G M / ( R + h ) = ( - 2 G M / R ) + v^2

-2\times6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}/ ( R + h )

=( (- 2\times 6.67\times10^{-11}\times6\times10^{24}) /(6.4\times10^6)} +10000^2

=-2.50625\times10^7 J

=- 8\times10^{14} / ( R + h )=-2.50625\times 10^7

R+h=31.92\times10^{6}

h=31.92\times10^{6}-6.4\times10^6

h=25.52\times10^6 m

Research indicate that men and women of different races expectationz regarding to gender roles. Which of these statements regard
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Asian American women are more likely than Asian American men to value egalitarian roles for men and women.

Explanation:

Gender biased has made the environment have different races expectation regarding to gender role.

A socialist feminine (Anita) believes that the oppression of women is based on the capitalist economy.

Parent influence an individuals on their lives socialization.

Some expectations of gender expectation.

1. Men are expected to gain more income, power, and social standing than females.

2. Using biological determinism, it shows that women are more hormonal and men are more aggressive.

3. Few percent of women are in the paid labor force while, large percent of men are in the paid labor force.

4. There is occupational segregation and this why women make up 97% of secretaries and 95% of child-care workers.

5. It is believed that women live longer than men, and this might be due to the stress the man has gone through during is life.

6. In general, men and women differ physically from but women have greater endurance than men.

There should be gender equality because *The Equal Pay Act of 1963" says that men and women receive equal pay for equal work.

Sexual harassment is a form of overt discrimination that has a negative impact on women's.

But today, both men and women say it is not fair for men to be the sole decision maker in the household.

Research on the impact of peer relationships on socialization have found that

1. for boys and girls peers reinforce age and racial norms as well as gender expectations.

2. gender norms are applied more strictly to boys than to girls.

3. homophobia serves to reinforce gender norms.

A certain first-order reaction is 58% complete in 95 s. What are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this proc
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

Explanation:

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

a_o=a\times e^{-kt}

where,

k = rate constant  

t = age of sample

a_o = let initial amount of the reactant  

a = amount left after decay process  

We have :

a_o=x

a=58\%\times x=0.58x

t = 95 s

0.58x=x\times e^{-k\times 95 s}

\k= 0.005734 s^{-1}

Half life is given by for first order kinetics::

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

=\frac{0.693}{0.005734 s^{-1}}=120.86 s

0.005734 s^{-1} and 20.86 seconds are the values of the rate constant and the half-life for this process respectively..

How would you determine the volume of an irregular shaped object.
Archy [21]
You can use the displacement method or the eureka can so basically in the displacement can what you have to do is to put some water into a measuring cylinder and measure its volume before adding the irregular shaped object and then measuring the level of water which had been displaced and then eureka can you can check online
