Your group is conducting an experiment to test the effect of Earth's gravity on objects of different masses. Your group drops fo

ur different objects over the 2nd floor railing and measures how long it takes them to hit the ground. On your first try, you drop a textbook, pencil, marker, and flat sheet of paper. You notice that although the textbook, pencil, and marker all hit the ground at the same time, the piece of paper did not. You learned in science that on Earth the acceleration due to gravity is constant regardless of mass, so you expected that all four objects would all hit the ground at the same time.
What could you do to change the results?

A) The paper is affected by air resistance due to its flat shape, so wadding the paper into a tight ball would cause it to hit the ground at the same time as the other objects.

B) The paper is affected by its mass, which is much less than the other objects. Folding the paper would increase its mass and cause it to hit the ground with the other objects.

C) The paper is affected by its mass, which is much less than the other objects. Using a heavier weight of paper would cause it to hit the ground at the same time as the other objects.

D) The paper is affected by air resistance due to its shape, so dropping the objects from a greater height would decrease the air resistance and cause the paper to hit the ground with the other objects.

Answer:

A) The paper is affected by air resistance due to its flat shape, so wadding the paper into a tight ball would cause it to hit the ground at the same time as the other objects.

Explanation:

<u>I am so sorry if this is incorrect! But after some research, this is what I found. </u>

Aristotle said that there are 4 elements: Earth, Wind, Water, Fire. Objects made of earth (like a rock) will want to go the center of the universe (center of the Earth). Things made of fire want to go to the place where fire is. I guess this would be the Sun - or somewhere up. Aristotle also said that a heavier object will fall at a faster speed.

Here is the first classic example. This is a bowling ball and a basketball dropped from the same height. Normally, people would assume thatn the bowling ball would drop quicker. They are correct. Please note that heavier objects do not always fall faster though.

I hope I answered your question! please give brainliest!

Answer:

Correct option is (D)

Organization requires too much time.

Explanation:

organization simply means the process of arranging things in a logical order. It could also means the the art of bringing people together in order to achieve a common goal.

There are characteristics of organization which are;

1)Planning: this involves looking forward on future action to avoid confusion.

2) Staffing; getting the best hand for the organization.

3)organizing: This involves making use of the available resources for the best of the organization,

4)Time Management: it method of time control to spent on some important activities to achieve efficiency.

Therefore, Paige's mother would agree that Organization requires too much time.

A solution that has a lower salt concentration than the salt concentration inside the cells osmosis 2. a solution with the same
xxTIMURxx [149]
1. Hypotonic solution; a solution that has lower salt concentration than the solvent concentration inside the cells.A hypotonic solution has more solvent than the solute, therefore, when a cell is placed in a hypotonic solution it gains water through osmosis and increases in size. However, for an animal cell, it will increase in size and then bursts because it lacks cell wall. 

2. Isotonic solution is the solution with the same slat concentration as the solvent concentration. In a isotonic solution, the solute concentration and the solvent concentration are at equilibrium, hence if a cell is placed in a such a solution there will be not net change or effect on the cell. 

3. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane. Osmosis involves the movement of water molecules from a region of high concentration to a region of lower concentration through a semipermeable membrane. An example of osmosis is the intake of water molecules in the plants through the roots.

4. Phagocytosis is the process where cells eat other cells or large substances. Phagocytosis involves the mechanism by which cells or phagocytes binds to a cell or an item it wants to engulf on the cell surface. For example; when a macrophage ingests a pathogen, the pathogen becomes trapped in a phagosome which then fuses with a lysososme and destroys the pathogen by digesting.  

5. A phospholipid is a molecules with a polar and a non polar ends, that along with protein makes up the plasma membrane. Phospholipid is a class of lipids that consists of two hydrophobic fatty acid tails and a hydrophilic head consisting of a phosphate group. It is the main component of the cell membrane, and makes the membrane to have a selective permeability. 

6. Pinocytosis is the process where cells eat small or dissolved substances. Pinocytosis is also known as fluid endocytosis; it is a type of endocytosis where small particles that are suspended in an extracellular fluid are brought into the cell by the means of invagination of the cell membrane, which cause the particles to be suspended in a vesicle. 

7. A polar molecule is a  molecule that has a partial positive and negative charges at each end. Polar molecules results from the polar bonds which comes from the difference in electronegativity between the atoms involved. Water is a good example of polar molecule because it has a partial positive charge on one side (hydrogen) and a partial negative charge on the other (oxygen). 

8. A protein is a large complex organic molecules consisting of a large number of amino acids linked together by peptide bonds. They are usually long chains of amino acids or polypeptides, that are essentially molecules used in metabolic processes. They have a range of functions, which includes, repair and maintenance, source of energy, structural components, chemical messengers, among others.
