A book is dropped from a window. It takes 5 seconds to reach the ground. What is its velocity after 2 seconds? What’s the veloci

ty at the time when it hits the ground?

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity is 0. In the equation v = v0+at where v0 is the initial velocity of 0, we only have to fill in -9.8 for a and 2 for t to get the velocity after 2 seconds -19.6 m/s; after 5 seconds, when it hits the ground, a = -9.8 and t = 5 to give a velocity of -49 m/s. Gravity pulls down everything at the same rate, it doesn't matter whether we drop a feather or an elephant from the window!

1. How do populations of invasive species continue to grow, and disrupt ecosystems?
olganol [36]
2 -An invasive species is a species that is not native to a specific location (an introduced species), and that has a tendency to spread to a degree believed to cause damage to the environment, human economy or human health.[2]

The term as most often used applies to introduced species that adversely affect the habitats and bioregions they invade economically, environmentally, or ecologically. Such species may be either plants or animals and may disrupt by dominating a region, wilderness areas, particular habitats, or wildland–urban interface land from loss of natural controls (such as predators or herbivores). This includes plant species labeled as exotic pest plants and invasive exotics growing in native plant communities.[3][4][5][6] The European Union defines "Invasive Alien Species" as those that are, firstly, outside their natural distribution area, and secondly, threaten biological diversity.[7][8] The term is also used by land managers, botanists, researchers, horticulturalists, conservationists, and the public for noxious weeds.[9]

Vector of magnitude 15 is added to a vector of magnitude 25. The magnitude of this sum
loris [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnitude of vector A, |A| = 15

Magnitude of vector B, |B| = 25

We need to find the magnitude of this sum.

The maximum sum of the resultant vector,

R_{max}=|A_1|+|A_2|\\\\=15+25\\\\=45

The minimum sum of the resultant vector,

R_{min}=|A_1|-|A_2|\\\\=15-25\\\\=-10

So, the magnitude of this sum either 45 or -10.

Explain in your own words how the Doppler Effect is also applicable in our study of light.
arlik [135]

well in my own words, i'd saw the the doppler effect is similar to light because sound has a speed, and light does too.

so my theory is if you go fast enough everything would just become black, or maybe white? idk its hard to explain

but what my point is, is taht the doppler effect works in the same way, like if a car is moving towards you the sound is being emitted from the car and being pushed by the speed of the car making it have a much higher pitch, when the car is going away however it drops to a lower pitch due the the sound waves being DRAGGED by the car.

there hoped this helped I guess
