From the window of a house that is placed 15 m high, a stream of water is thrown at 20 m/s with an

angle of 37° over the horizontal. Ignoring friction

with the air, calculate: (Consider g = 10 m/s 2 )

a) Distance from the base of the house at which the

water will fall.

b) Velocity at which the water will reach the

ground.

If a rock is thrown upward on the planet mars with a velocity of 12 m/s, its height (in meters) after t seconds is given by h = 12t − 1.86t2. (a) find the velocity of the rock after two seconds. m/s (b) find the velocity of the rock when t = a. 12−3.72a m/s (c) when will the rock hit the surface? (round your answer to one decimal place.) t = s (d) with what velocity will the rock hit the surface? m/s

Which is not true of the intertropical convergence zone? a) it features heavy precipitation b) it's where the trade winds collidec) it's a high-pressure zone with sinking air d) it is also known as the doldrums

In 1859, charles darwin published the first edition of on the origin of species, which explained his observations of various groups of animals that showed great similarities but minor differences. darwin concluded that if a population of one species separates into two different populations that live in separate locations, then over the course of many generations the different populations can develop into different species. this idea predicted many future biological findings and became the basis of modern biology. darwin’s explanation for why different species exist is best described as a(n) law. theory. inquiry. hypothesis.
