Select ALL the correct answers. Two metal balls are dropped from the top of a two-story building at the same time. One ball is t

wice as heavy as the other ball. Which statement about their motion are true? Assume that air resistance isn’t a factor.
1.)The balls fall with constant velocity.

2.)The balls fall with constant acceleration.

3.)The velocity of the heavier ball is twice that of the lighter ball.

4.)The balls land at the same time.

Statements 2 and 4 are correct. The velocity changes because the initial velocity is zero and each second they gain 9.8 m/s of velocity, which is the constant acceleration. Because there is no air resistance, they will land at the same time, and gravity acts equally upon both objects, so the velocity of both metal balls should always be the same.

Average velocity is different than average speed because calculating average velocity involves ?

Direction!

Velocity is a vector quantity and speed is a scalar quantity. Vector quantities includes both magnitude and direction, while scalar quantities only have magnitude. :)

The net electric charge of an amber rod which has been rubbed with fur is called negative Group of answer choices because amber
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The right option is option E. None of the answer choices given are totally correct.

Explanation:

All insulators normally have an equal amount of positive and negative charges distributed on their surface.

The amber rod (an insulator) is called negative because after the coming together with fur (another insulator), the amber rod rubs off electrons from the fur onto itself and has an overall more negatively charged particles than positively charged particles on its surface.

The fur in turn becomes positive because it has more positive charges than negative on its surface.

So, the convention allows the now rubbed off amber rod to be called negative.

So, it is evident that none of the answer choices are totally correct, the right answer is more of a mix of some of the answer choices and more!

Hope this helps!!

System A has masses m and m separated by a distance r; system B has masses m and 2m separated by a distance 2r; system C has mas
Anna [14]

Answer:

System D --> System C --> System A --> System B

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two masses m1, m2 separated by a distance r is given by:

F=G \frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}

where G is the gravitational constant. Let's apply this formula to each case now to calculate the relative force for each system:

System A has masses m and m separated by a distance r:

F=G\frac{m \cdot m}{r^2}=G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

system B has masses m and 2m separated by a distance 2r:

F=G\frac{m \cdot 2m}{(2r)^2}=G \frac{2m^2}{4r^2}=\frac{1}{2} G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

system C has masses 2m and 3m separated by a distance 2r:

F=G\frac{2m \cdot 3m}{(2r)^2}=G \frac{6m^2}{4r^2}=\frac{3}{2} G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

system D has masses 4m and 5m separated by a distance 3r:

F=G\frac{4m \cdot 5m}{(3r)^2}=G \frac{20m^2}{9r^2}=\frac{20}{9} G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

Now, by looking at the 4 different forces, we can rank them from the greatest to the smallest force, and we find:

System D --> System C --> System A --> System B

How much momentum will a dumb-bell of mass 10 kg transfer
frosja888 [35]

We want to find how much momentum the dumbbell has at the moment it strikes the floor. Let's use this kinematics equation:

Vf² = Vi² + 2ad

Vf is the final velocity of the dumbbell, Vi is its initial velocity, a is its acceleration, and d is the height of its fall.

Given values:

Vi = 0m/s (dumbbell starts falling from rest)

a = 10m/s² (we'll treat downward motion as positive, this doesn't affect the result as long as we keep this in mind)

d = 80×10⁻²m

Plug in the values and solve for Vf:

Vf² = 2(10)(80×10⁻²)

Vf = ±4m/s

Reject the negative root.

Vf = 4m/s

The momentum of the dumbbell is given by:

p = mv

p is its momentum, m is its mass, and v is its velocity.

Given values:

m = 10kg

v = 4m/s (from previous calculation)

Plug in the values and solve for p:

p = 10(4)

p = 40kg×m/s
