Explanation:</h3>
Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of an object in motion.
In our case we are given;
Acceleration, a = 2.0 m/s²
Time, t = 15 s
We are required to find the length of the slope;
Assuming the student started at rest, then the initial velocity, V₀ is Zero.
<h3>Step 1: Calculate the final velocity, Vf</h3>
Using the equation of linear motion;
Vf = V₀ + at
Therefore;
Vf = 0 + (2 × 15)
= 30 m/s
Thus, the final velocity of the student is 30 m/s
<h3>Step 2: Calculate the length (displacement) of the slope </h3>
Using the other equation of linear motion;
S = 0.5 at + V₀t
We can calculate the length, S of the slope
That is;
S = (0.5 × 2 × 15² ) - (0 × 15)
= 225 m
Therefore, the length of the slope is 225 m

Answer in Explanation
Explanation:
Whenever we talk about the gravitational potential energy, it means the energy stored in a body due to its position in the gravitational field. Now, we know that in the gravitational field the work is only done when the body moves vertically. If the body moves horizontally on the same surface in the Earth's Gravitational Field, then the work done on the body is considered to be zero. Hence, the work done or the energy stored in the object while in the gravitational field is only possible if it moves vertically. This vertical distance is referred to as height. <u>This is the main reason why we require height in the P.E formula and calculations.</u>
The derivation of this formula is as follows:
Work = Force * Displacement
For gravitational potential energy:
Work = P.E
Force = Weight = mg
Displacement = Vertical Displacement = Height = h
Therefore,
P.E = mgh
Answer:
-589.05 J
Explanation:
Using work-kinetic energy theorem, the work done by friction = kinetic energy change of the base runner
So, W = ΔK
W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²) where m = mass of base runner = 72.9 kg, v₀ = initial speed of base runner = 4.02 m/s and v₁ = final speed of base runner = 0 m/s(since he stops as he reaches home base)
So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
W = 1/2m(v₁² - v₀²)
W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg((0 m/s)² - (4.02 m/s)²)
W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(0 m²/s² - 16.1604 m²/s²)
W = 1/2 × 72.9 kg(-16.1604 m²/s²)
W = 1/2 × (-1178.09316 kgm²/s²)
W = -589.04658 kgm²/s²
W = -589.047 J
W ≅ -589.05 J
North to north repels, south to south repels, north to south attracts, the same vise versa.
I think the correct answer is B- heat is trapped in the earth atmosphere
