You have landed on an unknown planet, newtonia, and want to know what objects will weigh there. you find that when a certain too

l is pushed on a frictionless horizontal surface by a 12.7 n force, it moves 16.1 m in the first 2.50 s , starting from rest. you next observe that if you release this tool from rest at 10.3 m above the ground, it takes 2.88 s to reach the ground.

Refer to the diagram shown.

Because the surface is frictionless, the resistive for, R, is zero.

Let m = the mass of the object.
Let a =  acceleration due to the applied force.
Therefore
12.7 N = (m kg)*(a m/s²)
a = 12.7/m  m/s²

The object travels  16.1 m in 2.5 s, starting from rest. Therefore
16.1 N = (1/2)*(12.7/m m/s²)*(2.5 s)² = 39.6875/m  N
m = 16.1/39.6875 = 0.4057 kg

For freefall, let g =  acceleration due to gravity.
The time to fall from 10.3 m is 2.88 s, therefore
10.3 m = (1/2)*(g m/s²)*(2.88 s)² = 4.1472g m
g = 10.3/4.1472 = 2.484 m/s²

Answer:
The gravitational acceleration on the planet is 2.5 m/s² (nearest tenth)

How does the thickness of wood affect its stability
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Making the lumber thick will make it stiff, which seems good. On the other hand, with thicker lumber, differences in expansion on the two faces have more leverage to make the lumber move.
