Oil is less dense than water or most liquids found in Saldana dressing, so the denser liquid sinks to the bottom, leaving the oil on top. It's same principle on how a helium balloon floats in air, the helium is less density than the air around it.

poizon [28]
The forces (what causes the ball to accelerate) are gravity, friction, and the normal force. In this case, gravity is a downward force caused by the gigantic mass of the Earth and the mass of the ball. Keep in mind that a force is acceleration. Acceleration is a change in velocity. The ball speeds up. Than it stops speeding up at a certain point where the frictional force (along with air friction) equals the parallel component of gravity. 




Newton's Second Law States- The greater mass of an object, the more force it will take to accelerate the object.

What is the half-life of a compound if 75 percent of a given sample of the compound decomposes in 60 min? assume first-order kin
LenKa [72]
The amount left of a given substance can be calculated through the equation,
                                              A = (A0) x 0.5^n/h
From the given scenario, 
                                           A/A0 = 0.75 = 0.5*(60/h)
The value of h from the equation is 144.565 minutes.
