Answer:

148 m

Explanation:

On Earth, where g = 9.8 m/s²:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = v₀² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (24.2 m)

v₀ = 21.8 m/s

On the Moon, where g = 1.6 m/s²:

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (21.8 m/s)² + 2 (-1.6 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 148 m

If an object is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 128 ​ft/second, then its height after t seconds is given by the follow
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity u= 128 ft/sec

Equation of height

h = 128t-32t^2....(I)

(a). We need to calculate the maximum height

Firstly we need to calculate the time

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=0

From equation (I)

\dfrac{dh}{dt}=128-64t

128-64t=0

t=\dfrac{128}{64}

t=2\ sec

Now, for maximum height

Put the value of t in equation (I)

h =128\times2-32\times4

h=128\ ft

(b). The number of seconds it takes the object to hit the ground.

We know that, when the object reaches ground the height becomes zero

128t-32t^2=0

t(128-32t)=0

128=32t

t=4\ sec

Hence, The maximum height attained by the object and the number of seconds are 128 ft and 4 sec.

For her birthday, amy received flowers that had a dull red appearance. compared with the entire range of visible light waves, th
Cerrena [4.2K]
The flowers reflect relatively low frequency and low amplitude light waves.
White light contains a spectrum of colors, and red light is at the beginning of this spectrum in terms of energy. This means that it has the lowest frequency, as the energy of a wave of light is directly proportional to its frequency.
The amplitude of a light wave gives a measure of how intense the light is. A dull light means that the amplitude of the wave is low.

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

183333 Pa

Explanation:

The weight of the football player is : 550 N ,thus the force the player exerts on the floor is 550 N

The area of blades in contact with the floor is = 30cm² = 0.003 m²

Pressure = Force / Area

Pressure = 550 / 0.003

Pressure = 183333 Pa
