Whichever one you drop first will hit the ground first.  If you drop them simultaneously, and they don't interfere with each other on the way down, then they will hit the ground simultaneously.

They will both hit the ground at the same time, as there is no air resistance in a vacuum, and weight does not determine which object will fall faster even where there is gravity.

When a person's temperature reaches 104 degrees, the chances of survival are decreased dramatically. Group of answer choices Tru
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

With the increase in temperature hypothalamus fails and heatstroke occurs due to this failure. Hypothalamus is the region of our brain that act as a thermostat. It co-ordinates our physiological response to excessive heat. When the person’s temperature reaches to 104 degrees then it causes heatstroke. This heatstroke is very sudden and can kill person. Hence, we can conclude that when person’s temperature reaches to 104 degrees chances of survival decreases dramatically.

A spring with spring constant of 34 N/m is stretched 0.12 m from its equilibrium position. How much work must be done to stretch
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:0.253Joules

Explanation:

First, we will calculate the force required to stretch the string. According to Hooke's law, the force applied to an elastic material or string is directly proportional to its extension.

F = ke where;

F is the force

k is spring constant = 34N/m

e is the extension = 0.12m

F = 34× 0.12 = 4.08N

To get work done,

Work is said to be done if the force applied to an object cause the body to move a distance from its initial position.

Work done = Force × Distance

Since F = 4.08m, distance = 0.062m

Work done = 4.08 × 0.062

Work done = 0.253Joules

Therefore, work done to stretch the string to an additional 0.062 m distance is 0.253Joules
