Answer:

False

Explanation:

The steel ball and the wooden ball do not have the same force acting on them because their masses are different. But, they have the same acceleration which is the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m/s².

Using the equation of motion under freefall, s = ut +1/2gt². Since u = 0,

s = 1/2gt² ⇒ t = √(2s/g)

Since. s = height is the same for both objects, they land at the same time neglecting air resistance.

A hockey player skates with an average speed of 8.25 m/s. The distance the player will travel in 5.60 s is __________ .
OverLord2011 [107]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

To find this value, you need to remember the speed formula:

3 = 6 / 2

Speed = distance ÷ time

Rearrange to make distance the subject:

Distance = speed * time

Simply plug these values into this:

5.6 * 8.25 = 46.2

<h3>So the player will travel 46.2 metres!</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
