An object is dropped from a ladder. It reaches the ground 1.0 seconds later. If acceleration due to gravity is -9.81 m/s2, calculate the height of the ladder. (Note, the
ladder height is positive)

Beryl states that insulation with the smallest possible thermal conductivity is best to keep a house warm in winter, but worst for keeping a house cool in summer. sapphire insists the reverse is true: low thermal conductivity is good in the summer, but bad in the winter. which one, if either is correct? a. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in low heat transfer. b. beryl, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. d. sapphire, because low thermal conductivity results in high heat transfer. e. neither, because low heat transfer is desirable both in summer and in winter.

Why does a collision with an airbag cause less damage than a collision with a steering wheel

Geologists get to play with chemistry, physics, and history! and what a history you will meet as youwork your way through the course. starting at the beginning, the textbook provides the scientifically acceptedstart of the and promises that you'll get to explore some of the evidence for that scientific view, later inthe semester. meanwhile, which is more nearly correct of the scientifically accepted view? a) the earth formed when the big bang caused older materials to fall together, about 14 billion years ago.b) the earth formed from the falling together of older materials, about 4.6 billion years ago.c) the earth formed in the big bang, about 6000 years ago.d) the earth is eternal, having been here forever and promising to be here forever.e) the earth was assembled by gigantic space beavers, which gnawed down the primordial tree of life andpiled its branches together to form the planet.
