On the change in potential energy
(30, 5)
(10, 1)
change of y / change of x
= (30 - 10) / (5 - 1)
= 20 /4
= 5
Answer:
The velocity of the frozen rock at
is -14.711 meters per second.
Explanation:
The frozen rock experiments a free fall, which is a type of uniform accelerated motion due to gravity and air viscosity and earth's rotation effect are neglected. In this case, we need to find the final velocity (
), measured in meters per second, of the frozen rock at given instant and whose kinematic formula is:
(Eq. 1)
Where:
- Initial velocity, measured in meters per second.
- Gravity acceleration, measured in meters per square second.
- Time, measured in seconds.
If we get that
,
and
, then final velocity is:


The velocity of the frozen rock at
is -14.711 meters per second.
Answer:
State A = piece of metal; State B = air
Explanation:
For the three main states of matter here's how it breaks down.
Solid - Cannot be compressed and retains its shape
Liquid - Cannot be compressed and does not retain its shape
Gas - Compressible and does not retain its shape.
Knowing this State A has to be solid. Only one of the options has A as a solid, so that's the answer. Worth knowing state B is a gas though, only one compressible, just like solid is the only one that retains its shape.
