3. You are walking in Paris alongside the Eiffel Tower and suddenly a croissant smacks you on the head and knocks you to the ground. From your handy dandy tourist guidebook you find that the height of the Eiffel Tower is 300.5 m. If you neglect air resistance, calculate how many seconds the croissant dropped before it tagged you on the head.​

7.827s

Explanation:

Given that

Height of the Eiffel tower is (h) =300.5m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) =9.81m/s2

From the kinematic equations

s =ut+(1/2)gt2

It is free fall then u =0

Then h =(1/2)gt2

Then the time taken for the croissant dropped before it tagged you on the head. is t =Sqrt(2h/g) =Sqrt(2*300.5/9.81)=7.827s

why is arctic sea ice important? arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and moderate global climate. sea ice has a bright surface; 80 percent of the sunlight that strikes it is reflected back into space. as sea ice melts in the summer, it exposes the dark ocean surface.

chemical changes occur when a substance combines with another to form a new substance, called chemical synthesis or, alternatively, chemical decomposition into two or more different substances. these processes are called chemical reactions and, in general, are not reversible except by further chemical reactions. some reactions produce heat and are called exothermic reactions and others may require heat to enable the reaction to occur, which are called endothermic reactions. understanding chemical changes is a major part of the science of chemistry.
