The distance from the base of the building the rock will land is 26.4 m

<h3>Data obtained from the question </h3>
  • Horizontal velocity (u) = 20 m/s
  • Height (h) = 8.50 m
  • Distance (s) =?
<h3>Determination of the time to reach the ground </h3>
  • Height (h) = 8.50 m
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

8.5 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

8.5 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.9

t² = 8.5 / 4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(8.5 / 4.9)

t = 1.32 s

<h3>How to determine the distance </h3>
  • Horizontal velocity (u) = 20 m/s
  • Time (t) = 1.32 s
  • Distance (s) =?

s = ut

s = 20 × 1.32

s = 26.4 m

Answer:

Word for the first blank: gravity

Word for the second blank: matter

Explanation:

The only way debris from the impact with Earth can be held close to Earth is due to a force. The only force that could be acting from Earth is "the force of gravity".

The gravitational pull of this new object being formed, increases proportional to its mass as more and more "matter" accumulates. And the accretion process is now on its way.

What is similar about analogical and symbolic representations?
ICE Princess25 [194]
Symbolic representations are mental pictures that have no direct relationship to the actual object you are thinking about. Instead, these mental pictures are connected by themes that are meaningful to you. Anytime you think of words and descriptions for one main concept, you're thinking symbolically. Analogical representations are mental pictures that have a direct relationship to the actual object you are thinking about. Do cows have their ears on the top or side of their heads? Rather than thinking symbolically about a cow and his ears (tiny, smelly, leather), analogical representations of the cow's ears involve thinking of an actual cow in your head.

Why does an energy transfer not always result in phase change?
mash [69]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. "If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance

Your friend from France came to visit you when she was packing she went on weather.com and found that the average temperature in
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

Because there is not as much cold as it was in France.

Explanation:

The average temperature in France during January ranges from 2.7° to 7.2° celsius which makes it the coldest month of the year. But since she comes to know that average temperature in Annville ranges 31° celsius which implies that the temperature is normal there and therefore, she packs sleeveless tops and shorts. Coats would not be required in a hot weather and hence, she does not pack it.
