Answer:

865.08 m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Horizontal distance (s) =?

Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:

Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

62 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 62/4.9

Take the square root of both side.

t = √(62/4.9)

t = 3.56 s

Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:

Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s

Time (t) = 3.56 s

Horizontal distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 243 × 3.56 s

s = 865.08 m

Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.

Which cells or organs are considered to be part of both the immune and lymphatic systems? Select all that apply.
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

lymph nodes

tonsils and adenoids

thymus

Explanation:

-Arteries are the blood vessels that take the blood that contains oxygen from the heart to the tissues and are part of the circulatory system.

-Lymph nodes are glands that take care of filtering the fluid that goes through the lympathic system and are also important for the functioning of the immune system.

-Capillaries are blood vessels that connect the veins and arteries and are part of the circulatory system.

-Tonsils and adenoids are located in the throat and they help protect the body from diseases and they are part of immune system and the lympathic system.

-Veins are the vessels that take the blood to the heart and they are part of the circulatory system.

-Thymus is an organ in which the T cells develop and they help protect the body against virus and bacteria and it is part of the immune and lympathic systems.

According to this, cells or organs that are considered to be part of both the immune and lymphatic systems are:

lymph nodes

tonsils and adenoids

thymus

If a machine is doing 500 J of work with 75 watts of power, how long did it take to complete its task?
kompoz [17]

Answer:

time = 6.67secs

Explanation:

power = workdone( energy) / time

therefore :

Time = workdone / power

time = 500 / 75

time = 6.67secs
