The distance in meters she would have moved before she begins to slow down is 11.25 m

<h3>LINEAR MOTION</h3>

A straight line movement is known as linear motion

Given that Ann is driving down a street at 15 m/s. Suddenly a child runs into the street. It takes Ann 0.75 seconds to react and apply the brakes.

To know how many meters will she have moved before she begins to slow down, we need to first list all the given parameters.

speed = 15 m/s

time t = 0.75 s

From definition of speed,

speed = distance / time

Make distance the subject of the formula

distance = speed x time

distance = 15 x 0.75

distance = 11.25m

Therefore, the distance in meters she would have moved before she begins to slow down is 11.25 m

Sveta_85 [38]

The Pacific plate collides with and is subducted under four other crustal plates. The area where this happens has lots of volcanic activity. This area is called the Ring of Fire. This is a place under the Pacific Ocean and it has numerous volcanic eruptions and earthquakes and so this region is called the Ring of Fire. In this place there are about 450 active and dormant volcanoes and it is almost 75 percent of the volcanoes present in our earth.

To solve the two parts of this problem, we will begin by considering the expressions given for gravitational potential energy and finally kinetic energy (to find velocity). From the potential energy we will obtain its derivative that is equivalent to the Force of gravitational attraction. We will start considering that all the points on the ring are same distance:

$r = \sqrt{x^2+R^2}$

Then the potential energy is

$U = \frac{-GMm}{\sqrt{x^2+R^2}}$

PART A) The force is excepted to be along x-axis.

Therefore we take a derivative of U with respect to x.

$F = -\frac{dU}{dx}$

$F = -\frac{d}{dx}(GMm(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+R^2}}))$

$F = \frac{GMmx}{(x^2+R^2)^{3/2}}$

This expression is the resultant magnitude of the Force F.

PART B) The magnitude of loss in potential energy as the particle falls to the center

$U = GMm(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+R^2}})$

According to conservation of energy,

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = GMm (\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{\sqrt{x^2+R^2}})$

$\therefore v = \sqrt{2GM(\frac{1}{R}-\frac{1}{x^2+R^2})}$

Explain an experiment of the phenomenon of rainfall

maks197457 [2]

Unclear/incomplete question. However, I inferred you need an explanation of the phenomenon of rainfall.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Basically, the phenomenon of rainfall follows a natural cycle called the water cycle. What we call <em>'rainfall'</em> occurs when water condensed (in liquid form) in the atmosphere is made to fall down on the ground as tiny droplets as a result of the forces of gravity.

<u>The water cycle makes rainfall possible:</u>

First, water on the earth's surface is evaporated (or is absorbed into) the atmosphere.

Next, it then condensed into liquid form; which later falls to the surface to the ground again. And the process continues.
