CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY PHYSICS QUESTIONS? I NEED CORRECT ANSWERS ONLY!

<h2>Right answer: acceleration due to gravity is always the same </h2><h2 />
According to the experiments done and currently verified, in vacuum (this means there is not air or any fluid), all objects in free fall experience the same acceleration, which is <u>the acceleration of gravity</u>.
Now, in this case we are on Earth, so the gravity value is
Note the objects experience the acceleration of gravity regardless of their mass.
Nevertheless, on Earth we have air, hence <u>air resistance</u>, so the afirmation <em>"Free fall is a situation in which the only force acting upon an object is gravity" </em>is not completely true on Earth, unless the following condition is fulfiled:
If the air resistance is <u>too small</u> that we can approximate it to <u>zero</u> in the calculations, then in free fall the objects will accelerate downwards at and hit the ground at approximately the same time.

Answer:
Speed of physicist car is 0.036c or 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s .
Explanation:
Doppler Effect is defined as the change in frequency or wavelength of the wave as the source or/and observer moving away or towards each other.
In this case, the Doppler effect equation in terms of wavelength is :
......(1)
Here is source wavelength,
is observed wavelength, v is speed of the observer and c is the speed of light.
Given :
Source wavelength, = 660 nm = 660 x 10⁻⁹ m
Observed wavelength, = 555 nm = 555 x 10⁻⁹ m
Substitute these values in the equation (1).
v = 1.08 x 10⁷ m/s
