Why do raindrops fall with a constant speed during the later stages of their descents?
BartSMP [9]
Firstly they have a acceleration downwards due the force downwards due they gravitational field acting on it's mass.
as it falls it gains speed, and as it gains speed the air Resistance which is a upward force actin on the drop increases, eventually the rain drop's upward and downward forces are balanced and hence there is no RESULTANT force therefore no acceleration, so the drops falls in constant speed (terminal verlocity is a better term)

Are you wondering that why is the raindrop still moving given that the forces are balanced? If so according to Newton's 1st law an object will keep moving or Remain at rest until a RESULTANT force acts on it.

Which of the following is NOT accelerating?
ivolga24 [154]
I would say the answer to your question is A Ferris wheel turning at a constant speed. The reasoning behind this answer is the fact that traveling in a constant direction at a constant speed is not accelerating. The Ferris wheel is the only option that fits this description. The last option would be incorrect due to independent causes such as speed limit changes as well as turns and stops on the highway.

A marble, a bowling ball, a basketball, and a baseball are rolling across the floor at 1.0 m/s. Which one has the greatest kinet
sveticcg [70]

Answer: A Bowling Ball

Explanation:

A body possess kinetic energy due to virtue of its motion. It depends on the mass of the body and the speed with which it is travelling.

K.E = 0.5 mv²

K.E. ∝ m

It is given that the marble, bowling ball, basketball and baseball all are rolling with the same speed. This means that the greatest energy would be possessed by the body having greatest mass.

On an average the mass of a marble is about 50 g, mass of a bowling ball is 750 g, mass of baseball is 150 g and mass of basketball is 600 g. Since the mass of a Bowling ball is the greatest, it would possess the greatest kinetic energy.
