Answer: The speed at which Maya threw the snowball at Max is 20m/s

Explanation:

Given that

​Mass of snowball=   1.5-kg.

Mass of Maya= 12kg

Initial  speed of Maya=2.5m/s

We use the law of conservation of  momentum to calculate the  speed of the snowball which depends on its own mass,  the mass of Maya who threw the snowball and the initial velocity at which the snowball was thrown by Maya

Ms x Us = Mm x Um

Mass of snowball  x Initial speed of Snow ball =Mass of Maya x Initial  speed of Maya

1.5kg  x Initial speed of Snow ball =12 kg x 2.5m/s

Initial speed of Snow ball=( 12 kg x 2.5m/s) /1.5kg

​ Initial speed of Snow ball  =20m/s

What is folk remedies
mario62 [17]

A "folk" remedy is something you choose to eat, take, or do,
in order to correct some health issue, because your friend,
your grandmother, your religion, your shaman, your astrologer,
or your medicine man says that it's the right thing to do. 

It may or may not be effective, and it may or may not even be
safe.  What distinguishes it from mainstream medicine is that
its practices are based on hearsay, and have not been subjected
to scientific methods of investigation and evaluation.

Zero, a hypothetical planet, has a mass of 5.8 x 1023 kg, a radius of 2.7 x 106 m, and no atmosphere. a 10 kg space probe is to
Tom [10]
To answer these questions just use the equations for potential energy using the mass and heights described. the potential energy at the prescribed heights = the initial kinetic energy required to reach that height.

Make sure you calculate the force of gravity on the surface using the radius of the planet.

What term is used to describe all of the wavelengths of light waves?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

B.electromagnetic spectrum

Explanation:

Electromagnetic spectrum is used to  describe all of the wavelengths of light waves.Generally wavelength of the wave is denoted by λ.

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crest .Wavelength of the red color is minimum and wavelength of the violet color is maximum in the light  spectrum.

So the answer is B.

Electromagnetic spectrum

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Difference threshold or also Just Noticeable Difference

Explanation:

The above mentioned case between room mates, where one room mate was able to detect a minute change in volume shows an instance of the difference threshold.

Difference threshold can be defined as stimulation at its minimum level that can be detected by an individual almost 50 % of the times.

It is the lowest possible level of sound that is detectable by a person.

That is what happened in the mentioned case that when the volume was increased from 14 to 15, Amber was able to detect it.
