Answer:

the two balls will hit the ground at the same time.

Explanation:

The time of dropping, in the following equation, is related to both the distance travel s and the gravitational acceleration g, which are the same for both ball (if we neglect air resistance), no matter what their mass are.

$s = gt^2/2$

$t^2 = 2s/g$

So the time it takes to drop 2 balls are the same. They will hit the ground at the same time.

Alisiya [41]

The work done by the elephant to lift one log is the force multiplied by the height at which the log has been lifted:
$W=Fh=250 N \cdot 5 m=1250 J$
And so, the total work done to lift the 7 logs is 7 times the work done to lift each log:
$W_t = 7 W=7 \cdot 1250 N=8750 J$

A red laser with a wavelength of 670 nm and a blue laser with a wavelength of 450 nm emit laser beams with the same light power.

tatyana61 [14]

E=hf C=wavelength*F

E=hC/wavelength

E=(6.626*10^-34)*(3.00*10^8)/670*10^-9

E=(6.626*10^-34)*(3.00*10^8)/450*10^-9

Would you expect to observe every supernova in our own Galaxy? Why or why not?

Taya2010 [7]

Explanation:

Only few supernova are observed in our galaxy -

Type II supernovae ( i.e. the explosions of the massive stars ) occurred in the Milky Way, and they might be hidden by the intervening dust if they are located in the more distant parts of our Galaxy .

Type Ia supernovae , which need a white dwarf star in the binary star system , are brighter than the type II supernovae , but some of them could also happen in the older parts of Galaxy which are hidden due to the buildup of the dust and gas .
