The piece of paper has less mass and will glide down the window, whereas the textbook will go straight to the ground. Since the textbook has more mass and less ways of it being able to 'glide' the textbook will hit the ground first.

ball A of mass 5.0 kg moving at 20 meters per second collides with ball B of unknown mass moving at 10. meters per second in the
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:The mass of ball B is 10 kg.

Explanation;

Mass of ball A = M_A=5 kg

Velocity of the ball A before collision:U_A=20 m/s

Velocity of ball A after collision=V_A=10 m/s

Mass of ball B= M_B

Velocity of the ball B before collision:U_B=10 m/s

Velocity of ball B after collision=V_B=15 m/s

M_AV_A+M_BV_B=M_AU_A+M_BU_B

5 kg\times 10 m/s+M_B\times 15=5 kg\times 20m/s+M_B\times 10m/s

M_B=10kg

The mass of ball B is 10 kg.

An object with a mass of 20 kg has a net force of 80 N acting on it. What is the acceleration of the object?
Archy [21]

Answer:

4m/s^2

Explanation:

mass(m)=20 kg

force=80 N

acceleration (a)=?

Therefore,

Force = mass * acceleration

80 = 20*a

a=80/20

=4m/s^2

Explain a situation in which you can accelerate even though your speed doesn’t change.
Serga [27]
"Acceleration" does NOT mean speeding up.  It also doesn't mean
slowing down.  Acceleration means ANY change in the speed
OR DIRECTION of motion.

The only kind of motion that's NOT accelerated is motion at a steady
speed AND in a straight line.

Even when your speed is steady, you're accelerating if your direction
is changing.

A few examples:
(no speeds are changing):

-- driving on a curved road, or turning a corner
-- going around a curve on a skateboard, a bike, or a Segway
-- running on a quarter-mile track
-- an Indy car cruising a practice lap around the track
-- water spinning, getting ready to go down the drain
-- any point on the blade of a fan
-- the little ball going around the inside of a Roulette wheel
-- the Moon in its orbit around the Earth
-- the Earth in its orbit around the sun

How do you calculate the gravitational force on a rubber ball which has a mass of 50g
AfilCa [17]
P (gravitational force) = m (mass) x g
<=> P = 0.05 x 10
<=> P = 0.5N
