Answer:
a) 1.75s b) 17.2 m/s (down)
Explanation:
d1= 15m d2= 0m (because it hits ground)
a= -9.81 m/s^2 t=???
Equation
the triangle means change in so d2-d1
Δd= v1 * t + 1/2 * a * t^2
0m-15m= v1*t + 1/2 a t^2
-15 m= 0m/s*t (goes away) + 1/2* a *t^2
-15mx2= t^2
-15mx2/a= t^2
Square root (-30/-9.81m/s^2)
t=1.75 s
b) now v2!!
Im going to use v2= v1 + a*t
v2= 0m/s + -9.81 x 1.75s
v2 = -17.2 m/s or you can say 17.2 m/s down!!!
] Ceres is composed of rock and ice and is estimated to comprise approximately one third of the mass of the entire asteroid belt. Ceres is the only object in the asteroid belt known to be rounded by its own gravity (though detailed analysis was required to exclude 4 Vesta). From Earth, the apparent magnitude of Ceres ranges from 6.7 to 9.3, peaking once every 15 to 16 months,[21]hence even at its brightest it is too dim to be seen with the naked eye except under extremely dark skies.
<span>Star a is more distant and is approximately 5 times as far away as star b
Parallax is the change in angle that one must do in order to observe the same object from different locations. The further away an object is, the smaller the parallax is. As the angles approach zero, the trig functions tend to be fairly linear. And 0.1 arc seconds and 0.02 arc seconds are close enough to zero for this to hold true.
Since the parallax for star a is smaller than the parallax for star b, it is the more distant star. And since 0.1 divided by 0.02 = 5, it is approximately 5 times further away than star b.</span>
Without the ability to measure, it would be difficult for scientists to conduct experiments or form theories. Not only is measurement important in science and the chemical industry, it is also essential in farming, engineering, construction, manufacturing, commerce, and numerous other occupations and activities.
