Viktor [21]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

78.4 m

Explanation:

To obtain the height of the cliff;

We can use the Relation to obtain the final velocity, v

v = u + at

a = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

v = 0 + (9.8*4)

v = 0 + 39.2

v = 39.2 m/s

To obtain the Height, S

v² = u² + 2aS

39.2^2 = 0 + 2(9.8)S

39.2^2 = 0 + 19.6S

1536.64 = 19.6S

S = 1536.64 / 19.6

S = 78.4 m

A research submarine has a 30-cm-diameter window that is 8.1 cm thick. The manufacturer says the window can withstand forces up
malfutka [58]

The pressure at a certain depth underwater is:

P = ρgh

P = pressure, ρ = sea water density, g = gravitational acceleration near Earth, h = depth

The pressure exerted on the submarine window is:

P = F/A

P = pressure, F = force, A = area

The area of the circular submarine window is:

A = π(d/2)²

A = area, d = diameter

Set the expressions for the pressure equal to each other:

F/A = ρgh

Substitute A:

F/(π(d/2)²) = ρgh

Isolate h:

h = F/(ρgπ(d/2)²)

Given values:

F = 1.1×10⁶N

ρ = 1030kg/m³ (pulled from a Google search)

g = 9.81m/s²

d = 30×10⁻²m

Plug in and solve for h:

h = 1.1×10⁶/(1030(9.81)π(30×10⁻²/2)²)

h = 1540m

Why do sex cells contain only half the number of chromosomes needed for offspring? Explain
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

None, egg cells don't have chromosomes. No, sex cells do have chromosomes. Meiosis reduces chromosome number so that sex cells (eggs and sperm) have a half set of chromosomes–one homolog of each pair. This is the haploid number.

The question is on the picture.

Between noon and 2 pm, the amount of water in the rain gauge decreased.
This can be caused by evaporation, which turns water into water vapor.
Precipitation would increase the amount of rain water in the gauges, not decrease it.
Condensation occurs after evaporation but wouldn't decrease the water in the gauges by itself.
Runoff is when water on land drains into water sources such as lakes, rivers, oceans, etc. 
So the answer is A. evaporation.

• A flame always points upwards. Why do you think this is so?
valina [46]

Answer:

A flame always point upwards because the flame's gas is hotter than the surrounding air and, like you said, a hot gas is always lighter or less dense than a cold gas.
