1) we calculate the volume of the Earth expressed in ft.
Volume of a sphere=(4/3)πr³
3960 miles=3960 miles*(5280 ft/1 mile)=20908800 ft

Volume of the Earth=(4/3)π(20908800 ft)³=(4/3)9.1408*10²¹π ft³

2) we calculate the volume of a ping-pong ball at miles

V=(4/3)π(0.7441 in)³=(4/3)0.412π in³

3)we calculate how many times larger is the volume of the Earh tan the volume of a ping-pòng ball.

(4/3)0.412π in³------------------------ a ping-pong ball.
(4/3)9.1408*10²¹π ft³--------------         x

x=(4/3)9.1408*10²¹π ft³* volume of a ping-pong ball) /(4/3)0.412π in³)=
=2.21865*10²²  ping-pong balls.

Answer: The volume of the Earth is  2.21865*10²²  times larger than  the volume of a ping-pong ball.

Projectile Motion: A pilot drops a package from a plane flying horizontally at a constant speed. Neglecting air resistance, when
love history [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The package had the same velocity as the plane when it was dropped. Newton's 1st Law says that "an object in motion tends to stay in motion, at the same velocity, in a straight line unless acted on by an outside force".

There only outside force acting on the package was its weight -- that force is straight down. The horizontal velocity that the plane gave the package continued (as Newton said it would), so as it fell, horizontally it kept pace with the plane.

What will a spring scale read for the weight of a 75.0-kg woman in an elevator that moves upward with constant speed of 5.8 m/s
Sholpan [36]
<span>On the scale the only external forces are the man's weight acting downwards and the normal force which the scale exerts back to support his weight. So F = Ma = mg + Fs The normal force Fs (which is actually the reading on the scale) = Ma + Mg But a = 0 So Fs = Mg which is just his weight. Fs = 75 * 9.8 = 735N</span>
