Answer:

Please find attached the Velocity-Time graph, the Displacement-Time graph and the combined Velocity/Displacement-Time graph, created with Microsoft Excel

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The initial velocity with which the boy throws the rock, u = 12 m/s

The direction in which he throws the rock = Down

The height from which the rock was thrown, h = 20 m

The height at which the river is located = 0 m

The kinematic equation of motion, of the rock can be given as follows;

h = u·t + 1/2·g·t²

Where;

t = The time of motion of the rock

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = The height from which the rock is thrown = 20 m

Substituting the known values into given equation, we get;

20 = 12·t + 1/2·9.8·t² = 12·t + 4.9·t²

4.9·t² + 12·t - 20 = 0

t = (-12 ± √(12² - 4×4.9×(-20)))/(2 × 4.9) = (-12 ± √(242))/(9.8)

t ≈ -3.587 seconds or t ≈ 1.138 seconds

Attached please find the Velocity-Time graph, the Displacement-Time graph and the combined Velocity/Displacement-Time graph, created with Microsoft Excel.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! Briefly describe the three phases of self-regulation.<br> _PSYCHOLOGY_
Zinaida [17]

Phase 1. Forethought/preaction—This phase precedes the actual performance; sets the stage for action; maps out the tasks to minimize the unknown; and helps to develop a positive mindset. Realistic expectations can make the task more appealing. Goals must be set as specific outcomes, arranged in order from short-term to long-term. We have to ask students to consider the following:

<span>When will they start?Where will they do the work?How will they get started?<span>What conditions will help or hinder their learning activities are a part of this phase?
</span></span>

Phase 2. Performance control—This phase involves processes during learning and the active attempt to utilize specific strategies to help a student become more successful.

We have to ask students to consider the following:

<span>Are students accomplishing what they hoped to do?Are they being distracted?Is this taking more time than they thought?Under what conditions do they accomplish the most?What questions can they ask themselves while they are working?<span>How can they encourage themselves to keep working (including self-talk—come on, get your work done so you can watch that television show or read your magazine!)
</span></span>

Phase 3. Self-reflection—This phase involves reflection after the performance, a self-evaluation of outcomes compared to goals.

We have to ask students to consider the following:

<span>Did they accomplish what they planned to do?Were they distracted and how did they get back to work?Did they plan enough time or did they need more time than they thought?<span>Under what conditions did they accomplish the most work. 
Hope this helps!!!!!

15 Points , Physics HW, can someone please show me step by step how to calculate percent difference for this problem. My numbers
timofeeve [1]

The percent difference between two numbers x and y is given by

\dfrac{|y-x|}x \times 100\%

The absolute value is there because we only care about the absolute percent difference, and not taking into account whether we go from x to y or vice versa. If we remove them, we have two possible interpretations of percent difference.

For example, the (absolute) percent difference between 3 and 6 is

\dfrac{|6-3|}3 \times 100\% = 100\%

In other words, we add 100% of 3 to 3 to end up with 6. This is the same as the percent difference going from 3 to 6. On the other hand, the percent difference going from 6 to 3 is

\dfrac{3-6}3\times100\%=-50\%

which is to say, we take away 50% of 6 away from 6 to end up with 3.

"Make comparisons to object measurements" tells us that the differences should be computed relative to "measurements for object". In other words, take x from the left column and y from the right column.

\dfrac{|7.1-7.3|}{7.1} \times 100\% \approx 2.82\%

\dfrac{|4.8-5.0|}{4.8} \times 100\% \approx 4.17\%

\dfrac{|7.2-7.5|}{7.2} \times 100\% \approx 4.17\%
