\sf \vec{w}=100

  • \sf \vec{s}=100

For displacement apply Pythagorean theorem

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 100^2+100^2

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 10000+10000

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 20000

Energy is transferred by the process of convection from the hot water at the bottom of the tank to the cooler water at the top.
iragen [17]
The transfer of energy means, in convention process, transport of matter. In this case, hot water has lower density than cool water. The water with less density ascends and leaves gaps that are occupied with cooler water "packages".

Why is a shadow formed
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Shadows are made by blocking light. Light rays travel from a source in straight lines. If an opaque (solid) object gets in the way, it stops light rays from traveling through it. The size and shape of a shadow depend on the position and size of the light source compared to the object.

Stells [14]

Answer:

v = 7.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

horizontal distance 11.98 m

Acceleration due to gravity 9.8 m/s^2

Assuming initial velocity is zero

we know that

h = \frac{gt^2}{2}

solving for t

we have

t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

substituing all value for time t

t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 11.98}{9.8}}

t = 1.56 s

we know that speed is given as

v = \frac{d}{t}

v =\frac{11.98}{1.56}

v = 7.67 m/s
