Answer:

C

Explanation:

Because everything on Earth falls at the same speed, the masses of the balls do not matter. Since the acceleration due to gravity is constant, their speeds will both be increasing at the same rate, and therefore the difference in speeds would remain constant until they hit the ground. Hope this helps!

Which of the following energy transformations occurs when you eat a hamburger?
Fofino [41]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct answer is </u><u>(A) The chemical energy in the food is converted to mechanical energy to give the body energy to move. </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The chemical energy in food can be converted to another form of chemical energy when it is stored as glucose or fat. The chemical energy in our food can also be converted to mechanical energy in the form of muscle movement and it provides us energy to travel and move from one place to another pace. The entire energy is not converted to mechanical though, it is also converted into heat energy.

pav-90 [236]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass, M=3\times 10^{11}\ kg

Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8\ m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity is given by :

g=\dfrac{GM}{r^2}

r = distance from head

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{GM}{g}}

r=\sqrt{\dfrac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 3\times 10^{11}}{9.8}}

r = 1.42 m

So, at the distance of 1.42 meters from the head its gravitational pull on you match that of Earth's. Hence, this is the required solution.
