a stone is thrown vertically upwards with a velocity of 20 m per second what will be its velocity when it reaches a height of 10.2 m​

Explanation:

Here's the info we have:

initial velocity is 20 m/s;

final velocity is our unknown;

displacement is -10.2 m; and

acceleration due to gravity is -9.8 m/s/s. Using the one-dimensional equation

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx and filling in accordingly to solve for v:

 Rounding to the correct number of sig fig's to simplify:

to get

v = If you don't round like that, the velocity could be 24, or it could also be 24.5 depending on how your class is paying attention to sig figs or if you are at all.

So either 20 m/s or 24 m/s

so here is the information for current research:

-nrel's geothermal analysts, scientists, and engineers perform a full range of research from developing advanced methods of locating and accessing geothermal resources to exploring innovative technologies to extract and produce clean energy from the heat of the earth

and here is the information for the technology of geothermal energy:

-it's clean and sustainable

-resources of geothermal energy range from the shallow ground to hot water and hot rock found a few miles beneath the earth's surface, and down even deeper to the extremely high temperatures of molten rock called magma

-almost everywhere, the shallow ground or upper 10 feet of the earth's surface maintains a nearly constant temperature between 50° and 60°f (10° and 16°c)

-geothermal heat pumps can tap into this resource to heat and cool buildings

-a geothermal heat pump system consists of a heat pump, an air delivery system (ductwork), and a heat exchanger-a system of pipes buried in the shallow ground near the building

-in the winter, the heat pump removes heat from the heat exchanger and pumps it into the indoor air delivery system

-in the summer, the process is reversed, and the heat pump moves heat from the indoor air into the heat exchanger

-the heat removed from the indoor air during the summer can also be used to provide a free source of hot water
