Answer:

They both will reach the ground at the same time. it will be a tie

Explanation:

Given

m_1 = 1 lb\\\\m_2 = 100 lb\\\\height,h = 10 ft\\\\

Known

acceleration due to gravity,g = 32.2 ft/s^2\\

Solution

Since the balls are dropped freely, their inital velocity u is zero.

let us find the final velocity of 1 pound ball

v^2=-u^2 + 2gh\\\\v^2 = 0^2 + 2 \times 32.2 \times 10\\\\v^2 = 196\\\\v = 25.4 ft/s

Note that in the equation is v^2=-u^2 + 2gh the mass of the object has no place. So, The final velocity is independent of the mass

so the final velocity of the 100 pound ball will also be 25.4 ft/s

Now let us find the time taken for the 1 pound ball

v = u + gt\\\\25.4 = 0+ 32.2t\\\\t = 0.788s

Since the equation v = u + gt does not depend on mass, the 100 pound ball will also reach the ground at time t = 0.788 s

What is the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 400Hz and a wavelength of 0.5 meters
iren2701 [21]

Answer: 12

Explanation:

Let’s take for instance the case of a wave with a frequency of 400 Hz going through a material at a speed of .5 m/s. The wavelength result is 12 m. Wave velocity (m/s) = Frequency (Hz) x Wavelength (m)

A girl rides her scooter to school, a total distance of 4.5km. She has to slow down twice to cross busy streets, but overall the
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

6.93 km/h

Explanation:

To calculate her average speed, we need the "speed" formula, which is:

average speed = distance / time

You plug in your numbers and it will give you the answer.

Speed = 4.5km/0.65hr

           = 6.923 km/h

Ubes have sides of equal lengths. What is the fastest way to measure the volume of a cube-shaped table?
Kryger [21]

The quickest technique to calculate the volume of a cube-shaped table is to use a ruler to measure one side, then multiply that figure by three. Option B is correct.

<h3 /><h3>How do you calculate the volume of a cube?</h3>

Assume the side length of the cube under consideration is L units. The volume of the cube is then equal to L³ cubic units.

The volume of a cube is;

V = L³

Ubes have equal-length sides. The quickest technique to calculate the volume of a cube-shaped table is to use a ruler to measure one side, then multiply that figure by three.

Hence option B is correct.
