I think it's either A or C because on B an object's mass can't change unless it is on a different planet, and on D it doesn't make sense unless the wind is blowing.

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When a penny is dropped from a height of 20 meters then it will achieve an acceleration.

As acceleration is the rate of change in velocity of an object with respect to time. Therefore, the velocity does not remain constant.

Whereas mass of the penny will remain the same as it will not get affected when it falls. Also, there will be no change in direction of the penny as it is falling only in one direction.

The acceleration of penny is due to the force of gravity.

Thus, we can conclude that the force of gravity causes it to accelerate.

Students were asked to create roller coasters for marbles. The only requirement is that the roller coaster include at least one
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Since energy is lost in the roller coaster due to friction, the hill should little lower than the starting height since some of the kinetic energy at the bottom of the first hill is lost  due to friction so it will not have as much potential energy at the top of the next hill.

A roller coaster is a good way to demonstrate the principle of conservation  of energy. Recall that energy is neither created nor destroyed but can be converted from one form to another.

In a roller coaster, all the heights are not the same because energy is lost along the line. Therefore, the students must bear in mind that  the hill should be at least a little lower than the starting height because some of the kinetic energy at the bottom of the first hill will be converted to other types of energy due to friction so it will not have as much potential energy at the top of the next hill.

zheka24 [161]

Answer:

The speed is 173 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

A = 47

B = 14

Length 1 urk = 58.0 m

An hour is divided into 125 time units named dorts.

3600 s = 125 dots

dorts = 28.8 s

Speed v= (25.0+A+B) urks/dort

We need to convert the speed into meters per second

Put the value of A and B into the speed

v=25.0+47+14

v =86\ urk s/dort

v=86\times\dfrac{58.0}{28.8}

v=173.19\ m/s

Hence, The speed is 173 m/s.
