Answer:

24m/s²

Explanation:

Given

Distance S = 3m

Time of fall = 0.5sec

Required

Acceleration due to gravity

Using the equation of motion

S = ut+1/2gt²

Substitute the given values

3 = 0+1/2g(0.5)²

3 = 1/2(0.25)g

3 = 0.125g

g = 3/0.125

g = 24

Hence the value for the acceleration of gravity on this new planet is 24m/s²

melomori [17]

The particles that move in orbits of the same radius have the same momentum.

<h3>Orbital angular momentum:</h3>

A point particle's three-dimensional angular momentum is traditionally represented by the pseudovector r p, which is the cross product of the particle's position vector r (relative to some origin) and momentum vector, which in Newtonian physics is denoted by p = mv.

L = mrV_{prep} = mr²w is the particle's orbital angular momentum in units of magnitude. The part of the particle's velocity that is here perpendicular to the axis of rotation is designated as V_{perp.} The right-hand rule indicates the direction of the angular momentum. In isolated systems, the angular momentum is conserved.

Which type of rock would form from a lava following a volcanic eruption
melisa1 [442]

When lava reaches the surface of the Earth through volcanoes or through great fissures the rocks that are formed from the lava cooling and hardening are called extrusive igneous rocks. Some of the more common types of extrusive igneous rocks are lava rocks, cinders, pumice, obsidian , and volcanic ash and dust.

What do ocean waves and sound waves have in common?
Virty [35]
Ocean waves and sound waves are : mechanical wave. A and B aren't right at all. and C is  wrong because they aren't electromagnetic.
Mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium.

Hope this help
