Alec says the force of gravity is stronger on a piece of paper after it’s crumpled. His classmate, Jordan, disagrees. Alec “prov

es” his point by dropping two pieces of paper, one crumpled and the other not. Sure enough, the crumpled piece falls faster. Has Alec proven his point? Use at least 2 to 3 complete content related sentences to explain.

No, gravity acts equally on all objects.  The crumpled paper falls faster because it resists the drag force due to the atmosphere because of its compact size.  A flat piece of paper has an extended body and "catches" the air and falls more slowly.  In a vacuum they would fall at the same rate either way.

If a car changes ita velocity from 32km/hr to 54km/hr in 8.0 seconds, what is its acceleration
Andrews [41]
Firstly, let's convert the velocities in km/hr to m/s
32*1000/3600=8.89m/s
54*1000/3600=15m/s
From the formula, acceleration=V-U/t
15-8.89/8=0.76m/s²
hope this helps.

2. Which statement is correct about the Krebs cycle?
IRINA_888 [86]

The correct option is


a. Acetyl-CoA combines with a pyruvic acid to make glucose in the Krebs cycle.


Explanation:

The Krebs citric acid cycle happens within the mitochondrial matrix and generates a pool of energy (ATP, NADH, and FADH2) from the oxidization of pyruvate, the tip product of metabolism. Pyruvate is transported into the mitochondria and loses dioxide to make acetyl-CoA, a 2-carbon molecule.

A car changes speed from 25 m/s to 10 m/s in 240 seconds. Describe its acceleration.​
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Explanation:

Acceleration is change in velocity over change in time:

a = Δv / Δt

a = (10 m/s - 25 m/s) / (240 s - 0 s)

a = -0.0625 m/s²

So the car decelerates at 0.0625 m/s².
