If you drop a baseball and let it fall, gravity from Earth pulls down on the baseball with 1.4 N of force. What is the reaction

force in this situation?
A)Gravity from the ball pulls up on the Earth with 1.4 N of force.
B)Your fingers exerted an upward force of 1.4 N before they released the ball.
C)Once it hits the ground, normal force from Earth's surface will push up on the ball with 1.4 N
D)Air resistance pushes up on the ball with 1.4 N.

The reaction force in this situation occur once it hits the ground, and normal force from Earth's surface will push up on the ball with 1.4 N.

<em>The correct answer is option (</em><em>C</em><em>) </em>

<h3>What is Newton's third law of motion?</h3>

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is equal and opposite reaction.

Mathematically, this law is given as;

Fa = Fb

where;

  • Fa is the force applied by object A
  • Fb is the reaction experienced by object B

The force applied by object is equal and opposite the reaction experienced by object B.

When an object placed on the floor, the weight of the object acts downward while the normal reaction of the object acts upwards.

Thus, if you drop a baseball and let it fall, gravity from Earth pulls down on the baseball with 1.4 N of force, the reaction force will occur once it hits the ground, as the normal force from Earth's surface will push up on the ball with 1.4 N.

You drop a 30 g pebble down a well. You hear a splash 2.7 s later. Ignoring air resistance, how deep is the well? Assume g = 9.8
lys-0071 [83]
I will assume here that the well is sufficiently short so that the time the sound takes to come from the bottom of the well to our ear is negligible.

Since the pebble moves by uniformly accelerated motion, the distance it covers is given by
S= \frac{1}{2}gt^2
where 
g=9.81 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration
t=2.7 s is the time the pebble takes to reach the bottom of the well

Therefore, the depth of the well is
S= \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2.7 s)^2 = 35.7 m \sim 36 m
and the correct answer is B.
