Answer:

The stitches and dimples around a baseball  and a golf ball respectively, disturbs the air drag on the balls once they are in motion, allowing the them to travel more easily.

Explanation:

The stitches on a baseball disturbs the air drag on the ball when the ball is in motion, allowing the ball to travel more easily. Depending on the orientation of the ball in flight, the drag changes as the flow is disturbed by the stitches.  

A smooth ball with no stitches or dimples has more air drag that opposes the motion.

A golf ball is smooth ball with dimples to create a thin turbulent boundary layer of air that clings to the ball's surface. This allows the smoothly flowing air to follow the ball's surface a little farther around the back side of the ball, thereby decreasing the size of the wake, and allowing the ball to travel more easily.

How do you do this? I know that the Density equation is D=m/v but these are in kilograms and Liters...so do I convert it to gram
BARSIC [14]

Explanation:

The problem doesn't specify that the units have to be g/mL, so you can calculate the density in kg/L without converting the mass or volume.

Just make sure that either way, you write the units.

Two students try to move a heavy box. One pushes with the force of the 80N while the other pulls with a force of 40N in the same
alekssr [168]

Answer:

<em>Good Luck!</em>

Explanation:

Force applied by first student (F1) = 80 N

Force applied by the second student (F2) = 40 N

Displacement (d) = 10 m

Work done by first student (W1) = F1d = 80*10 = 800 J

Work done by second student (W2) = F2d = 40*10 = 400 J

Hence, the work done by the pushing student is 800 J and that by pulling student is

<h2> <u><em>400 J</em></u></h2>
