Answer:

43.58 m

Explanation:

If you travel 500 m on a straight road that slopes upward at a constant angle of 5 degrees

Using trigonometry ratio

Sin 5 = opposite/hypothenus

Where the hypothenus = 500m

Opposite = height h

Sin 5 = h/500

Cross multiply

500 × sin 5 = h

h = 500 × 0.08715

h = 43.58m

Therefore, the height above the starting point is equal to 43.58m

Which of the following statements correctly describes the models put forth by Ptolemy and Copernicus to explain the universe? A.
FrozenT [24]
The correct option is D. 
The model developed by Ptolemy has a lot of inconsistency and during the middle age additional explanation was offered for the claims made by the model. The model was very complicated because it was based on erroneous assumptions.
Copernicus model was simpler and some of his claims were correct.<span />

Energy conservation with conservative forces: Two identical balls are thrown directly upward, ball A at speed v and ball B at sp
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

E) True.   Ball B will go four times as high as ball A because it had four times the initial kinetic energ

Explanation:

To answer the final statements, let's pose the solution of the exercise

Energy is conserved

Initial

          Em₀ = K

          Em₀ = ½ m v²

Final

         Emf = U = mg h

         Em₀ = emf

        ½ m v² = mgh

        h = v² / 2g

For ball A

         h_A = v² / 2g

For ball B

        h_B = (2v)² / 2g

        h_B = 4 (v² / 2g) = 4 h_A

Let's review the claims

A) False. The neck acceleration is zero, it has the value of the acceleration of gravity

B) False. Ball B goes higher

C) False  has 4 times the gravitational potential energy than ball A

D) False.  It goes 4 times higher

E) True.
