Freefall can only be experienced when gravity is the only force acting on you. Weightlessness can be experienced on earth with air resistance and gravity like on a rollercoaster when you are just about to go down the hill.

Free fall means your falling because of gravity and weight and will eventually hit the ground without any protection. weightlessness means a place or time where there is no gravity and you're floating and not falling.

Volume of gold in the phone = 10 cm^3
                                              = 0.<span>00001 m^3 </span>
Density of gold = 19300 kg/m^3
1 kg mass = 2.2 pounds
Mass of 10 cm^3 of gold = 0<span>.00001 m^3 * (19300 kg/m^3)
                                        = 0.193 kg 
So
0.193 kg = 0.193 * 2.2 pounds
               = 0.43 pounds
I think there is something wrong with the options given in the question.</span>

What is a horizontal segment meaning on a position vs. time graph?
sergeinik [125]

The velocity of the object is zero (the object is at rest)

Explanation:

A position vs time graph represents the motion of an object; in particular:

  • The position of the object x(t) is represented on the y-axis
  • The time t is represented on the x-axis

For a position-time graph, the slope of the graph is given by

m=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

where

\Delta x is the change in position

\Delta t is the change in time

However, we see that this is equivalent to the definition of velocity:

v=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}

Therefore, the slope of  a position-time graph is equivalent to the velocity of the object.

And so, a horizontal segment on a position vs time graph means that the object has zero velocity (because the slope is zero).
