You start by writing down your parameters;
u=60m/s
v=0
t=8s
So acceleration(a)=v-u/t
=0-60/8
=-60/8
=-7.5m/s
To the nearest hundredth will be
-7.5*100
=-750m/s

Answer:

Gravitational pull

Explanation:

There are four fundamental forces in nature:

- Gravitational force: it is an attractive force exerted between all objects having mass. Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Electromagnetic force: it is the force exerted between electrically charged object. It can be either attractive ore repulsive.  Its magnitude is proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the objects.

- Strong nuclear force: it is the force responsible for holding protons and neutrons together in the nuclei of the atoms. It is attractive and acts only on a very short scale.

- Weak nuclear force: it is the force responsible for certain nuclear decay processes (radioactivity).

In this problem, landslides occur when certain masses of terrain are attracted towards the ground - they are attracted because of the gravitational force.

So, the correct answer is

gravitational pull

Sound waves are mechanical waves. Which statement is true for this type of wave?
Bad White [126]

Answer:

Electromagnetic waves do not require a medium in order to transport their energy. Mechanical waves are waves that require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. ... Sound is a mechanical wave and cannot travel through a vacuum.

A 25.0-kg child is standing at the edge of a horizontal merry-go-round with a radius of 2.40 m and a moment of inertia of 356 kg
motikmotik

Answer:

\omega_{f}=1.634\ rad/s  

Explanation:

given,  

diameter of merry - go - round = 2.40 m  

moment of inertia = I = 356 kg∙m²

speed of the merry- go-round = 1.80 rad/s

mass of child = 25 kg  

initial angular momentum of the system  

L_i = I\omega_i  

L_i =356\times 1.80  

L_i =640.8\ kg.m^2/s  

final angular momentum of the system  

L_f = (I_{disk}+mR^2)\omega_{f}  

L_f = (356 + 25\times 1.2^2)\omega_{f}  

L_f= (392)\omega_{f}  

from conservation of angular momentum  

L_i = L_f  

640.8= (392)\omega_{f}  

\omega_{f}=1.634\ rad/s

Define an expression for linear expansion of solid​
Vesnalui [34]

\huge \tt \underline \red{answer}

When something is heated or cooled, its length changes by an amount proportional to the original length and the change in temperature: linear expansion : ΔL=αL0ΔT (α is the coefficient of linear expansion) The coefficient of linear expansion depends only on the material an object is made from.

Thanku have a great day ✨❤️
