He proposed the theory of Continental Drift. He believed that all of the continents were once joined together in a super continent he called Pangea (not sure if that's spelled right I studied this awhile ago). He proved this by showing similarities in fossils in completely different continents and showing how well the continents could fit together.

Of course. Wind is air in motion, and the gases in air are composed of
all the usual familiar stuff ... atoms, molecules, mass, etc. That's how
the wind moves things ... it has momentum and kinetic energy, which
get transferred to the things that move in the wind.</span>
Answer:
the answer is a because I saw it in a syllabus
Answer:
Explanation:
From the given information:
the car's momentum = momentum of the truck
∴
(a) 816 kg × v = 2650 kg × 16.0 km/h
v = (2650 kg × 16.0 km/h) / 816 kg
v = 51.96 km/hr
(b) 816 kg × v = 9080 kg × 16.0 km/h
v = (9080 kg × 16.0 km/h) / 816 kg
v = 178.04 km/hr
Answer:
The jumper is in freefall for 12.447 seconds.
Explanation:
Let's start by calculating how far the jumper falls.
Initial height (on cliff) = 910 m
Final height after freefall = 150 m
Distance the jumper falls in freefall = 910 - 150 = 760 m
We can now use the equation of motion below to solve for the time:
here. acceleration = 9.81 m/s (due to gravity)
initial speed (u) = 0 m/s (because vertical speed is 0 at the start)
and distance (s) = 760 meters (as calculated above)
So for speed we get:
t = 12.447 seconds
