Without counting wind resistance, They will both reach the ground at the same time. If we apply the concept of kinematics, such as the equation vf^2=vi^2 + 2ad. This equation doesn't count how big or how heavy the mass is, it only focuses on how fast where they in the start and how far are both of them from the ground. So if they both have the same distance and same initial veloctity, then they will reach the ground at the same time.
For example, Try dropping a pen and a paper(Vertically) at the same height, you'll see they'll reach the ground at the same time.
If you count wind resistance, the heavier ball will hit the ground faster, because the air molecules will resist the lighter ball compared to the heavier ball.
Answer:
40 N/m
Explanation:
F = -kx (This is the Hooke's Law equation)
F is the force the spring exerts = 8 N
-k = spring constant
x = displacement (The distance stretched past it's natural length) = 20cm
x needs to be in meters, and 20 cm is = to 0.2 meters
Finally:
8N = -k (0.2m)
-k = 8N / 0.2 m
k = -40 N/m

Answer:
<h3>62.5N</h3>
Explanation:
The pressure at one end of the piston is equal to the pressure on the second piston.
Pressure = Force/Area
F1/A1 = F2/A2
Given
F1 = 250N
A1 = 2.0m²
A2 = 0.5m²
F2 = ?
Substituting the given values in the formula;
250/2 = F2/0.5
cross multiply
250*0.5 = 2F2
125 = 2F2
F2 = 125/2
F2 = 62.5N
Hence the force needed to lift this piston if the area of the second piston is 0.5 m^2 is 62.5N
