Physics

Answer:

<em>The basketball player jumped 10 m high.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Vertical Launch Upwards </u>

In a vertical launch upwards, an object is launched vertically up without taking into consideration any kind of friction with the air.

If vo is the initial speed and g is the acceleration of gravity, the maximum height reached by the object is given by:

\displaystyle h_m=\frac{v_o^2}{2g}

The basketball player jumps up with a speed of vo=14 m/s. The maximum height is:

\displaystyle h_m=\frac{14^2}{2*9.8}

\displaystyle h_m=\frac{196}{19.6}=10

The basketball player jumped 10 m high.

Lana71 [14]
<span>To begin, the mouse walks from 5 to 12 cm, for a displacement of 7 cm. Next, it walks 8 cm in the opposite direction, for a total displacement of (7 + [-8]) or (-1) cm. This leaves the mouse on 4 cm, and then it walks from there to the 7cm location, for a displacement of 7-4 or +3 cm. Adding 3cm to -1cm gives a final displacement of +2cm.</span>

Which type of communications equipment functions as a radio receiver and searches across several frequencies?
krok68 [10]

A <u>scanner</u> is a type of communications equipment that functions as a radio receiver and searches across several frequencies.

A scanner is a kind of a radio receiver that has the ability to receive multiple signals.

There are three modes which a scanner uses for acting as a radio receiver. The scan mode of the radio receiver constantly changes frequencies that helps in transmissions. There is also a manual scan mode that allows the users to search for their interested frequencies. The search mode allows the users to search through two sets of frequencies.

A scanner is a type of communication equipment that is easy to use with various features such as the volume, numeric keypad,  trunk tracking etc.

Martin has severe myopia, with a far point on only 17 cm. He wants to get glasses that he'll wear while using his computer whose
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

Far point = 17 cm . That means he can not see beyond this distance .

He wants to see at an object at 65 cm away . That means object placed at 65 has image at 17 cm by concave lens . Using lens formula

1 / v - 1 / u = 1 / f

1 / - 17 - 1 / - 65 = 1 / f

= 1 / 65 - 1 / 17

= -  .0434 = 1 / f

power = - 100 / f

= - 100 x .0434

= - 4.34 D .
