<span>a) 1960 m
b) 960 m
Assumptions.
1. Ignore air resistance.
2. Gravity is 9.80 m/s^2
For the situation where the balloon was stationary, the equation for the distance the bottle fell is
d = 1/2 AT^2
d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2
d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 400 s^2
d = 4.9 * 400 m
d = 1960 m
For situation b, the equation is quite similar except we need to account for the initial velocity of the bottle. We can either assume that the acceleration for gravity is negative, or that the initial velocity is negative. We just need to make certain that the two effects (falling due to acceleration from gravity) and (climbing due to initial acceleration) counteract each other. So the formula becomes
d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 - 50 m/s * T
d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 - 50m/s *20s
d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 400 s^2 - 1000 m
d = 4.9 * 400 m - 1000 m
d = 1960 m - 1000 m
d = 960 m</span>
When the Sun is slightly below the horizon, its light moves from less dense air to more dense air and gets refracted towards the normal. Because of this atmospheric refraction, the Sun appears to be above the horizon when it is actually slightly below the horizon.
Answer:
the interference of two or more waves of equal frequency and phase, resulting in their mutual reinforcement and producing a single amplitude equal to the sum of the amplitudes of the individual waves.
Neap tides occur at or immediately after the First Quarter
and Third Quarter moon phases. At those times, the moon
is 'to the side' of the Earth. I mean, the sun, Earth, and Moon
make a right angle, with Earth at the vertex.
