A 300g ball and a 100g ball are dropped from a tower. Both balls are the same size and their is no air resistance. Which one hit

s the ground first?
Physics

Answer: The balls would hit the ground at the same time.

Explanation: Since there is no air resistance, we would put Galileo's experiment into motion. Galileo once performed an experiment of dropping two items, with different masses, from the tower of Pisa. Since there was no air resistance, the balls hit the ground at the same time. In this problem, the balls are "free-falling." Freefall is a term used in Physics to describe the motion of a falling object experiencing only the acceleration due to gravity. g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration due to gravity.) 9.8 will always be the acceleration in a free fall event like this with no air resistance, since Gravity remains constant.

Newton's second law of motion states that F=ma, (force is equal to mass times acceleration), but since Newton also states that f=mg, we can conclude that ma=mg. Stating that no matter what the mass of the object is, both of the objects will fall at the same time with the same velocity.

What is the power of 4ohm resistor connected to a 12v battery?
NemiM [27]

Answer:

36watts

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

R (Resistor) = 4 Ohms

V (Voltage) = 12V

P (power) =?

P = IV

Recall: I = V/R

P = V^2 /R

P = (12)^2 /4

P = 144/4

P = 36watts

Therefore, power is 36watts

Calculate the electric field intensity at a point 3 cm away from point charge of 3 x 10^-9 C.
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The electric field intensity is <u>30000 N/C.</u>

Explanation:

Given:

Magnitude of the point charge is, q=3\times 10^{-9}\ C

Distance of the given point from the point charge is, d=3\ cm=0.03\ m

Electric field intensity is directly proportional to the magnitude of point charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance of the point and the given charge.

Therefore, electric field intensity 'E' at a distance of 'd' from a point charge 'q' is given as:

E=\frac{kq}{d^2}

Plug in k=9\times 10^9\ N\cdot m^2/C^2, q=3\times 10^{-9}\ C, d=0.03\ m. Solve for 'E'.

E=\frac{(9\times 10^9\ N\cdot m^2/C^2)(3\times 10^{-9}\ C)}{(0.03\ m)^2}\\\\E=\frac{27}{0.0009}\ N/C\\\\E=30000\ N/C

Therefore, the electric field intensity at a point 3 cm from the point charge is 30000 N/C.

Help mee pleaseee :)))
Anettt [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Solving the first image question:

C ) The resulting force is defined by Newton's second law which tells us that the sum of the forces on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. That is, there must be a force that acts on a body to produce an acceleration. If there is no acceleration it is because there are no external forces or developed by the body. And if there is no acceleration the body moves at a constant speed, in a straight line, so the response is C.

For the second image, we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

W = m*g

where:

W = weight [N]

m = mass [kg]

g = gravity acceleration [m/s²]

Now we have

m = 50 [kg]

ge = Earth gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

gp = Distant planet gravity acceleration = 4 [m/s²]

We = ge*m

We = 10*50 = 500 [N]

Wp =gp*m

Wp = 4*50 = 200 [N]

Therefore the answer is D

For the third image, The mass is always going to be preserved, regardless of where the body or object is in space, its weight is the only one that changes since the gravitational force is modified. That is, the mass on the moon and on Earth will always be the same.

m = 70 [kg]

First, we must calculate the acceleration, by means of the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} +a*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 20 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0 (because stars from the rest)

a = acceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 4 [s]

20 = 0 + a*4

20 = 4*a

a = 5 [m/s²]

Now using Newton's second law which tells us that the total force acting on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F = m*a

where:

F = force [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 2 [kg]

a = acceleration = 5 [m/s²]

F = 2*5

F = 10 [N]

The body of Figure D, since a total force of 25 [N] to the left acts on it, in the rest of cases the force is zero or much less than 25 [N]

50 + 40 - 35 - 30 = F

F = 25 [N]
