A ratio can be written as a fraction and simplified.
120/3000
simplifies to 12/300
simplifies to 6/150
simplifies to 2/50
simplifies to 1/25 
so each 1 pound of force from the jack lifts 25 pounds of car.

What is the formula for volume using density and mass
lawyer [7]

The definition of density is

                                                       Density                  = (mass) / (volume)

Multiply each side by 'volume' :    (density) x (volume) = (mass)

Divide each side by 'density' :                         Volume = (mass) / (density)

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

  • on the moon, they will fall at the time
  • on earth, the coin will fall faster to the ground

Explanation:

A coin and feather dropped in a moon experience the same acceleration due to gravity as small as 1.625 m/s², and because of the absence of air resistance both will fall at the same rate to the ground.

If the same coin and feather are dropped in the earth, they will experience the same acceleration due to gravity of 9.81 m/s² and because of the presence of air resistance, the heavier object (coin) will be pulled faster to the ground by gravity than the lighter object (feather).
