Answer:

A) Gravitational Force is greater in S.

B) Time taken to fall a given distance in air will be greater for F.

C) Both will take same time to fall in a vacuum.

D) Total force is greater in S.

Explanation:

(a) In this case, the gravitational force of S will be greater, because Newton's Second Law states that - F = ma, or weight =mg. g is constant. And mass of the solid metal is heavier.

(b) In this case, the time it will take for F to fall from a given distance in air will be greater than that of S, since the air resistance is not negligible (as in the case of S).

(c) In this, It will take same time for S and F because in a vacuum, there are no air particles, so there is no air resistance and gravity is the only force acting and so objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum.

(d) The total force will be greater in S than F because Force=ma and S is of heavier mass than F.

A football field lies so one endzone is to the east and one is to the west. A running back gets the ball and starts running 20o
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

( 80.87 i - 12.96 j ) m

Explanation:

Running back movements :

20⁰ north of east  for  10 meters,  

Runs straight east for 60 meters

runs 35⁰ east of south for 20 meters

A) show vector pointing from the starting point to the end ( where he scored )

The final vector displacement : ( 80.87 i - 12.96 j ) m

which is : 81.90 m, 9.10⁰ south of east

What are the four types of musical instruments and what are the physical behind each type of musical instrument
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

The four types of musical instruments are percussion, woodwind, brass, and strings.

Explanation:

Percussion instruments include drums, triangle, cymbals, and xylophones. There are more instruments than what i've mentioned though. Percussion instruments often produce the beat of songs.

Woodwind instruments include clarinets, oboe, flute, and saxophone. Woodwind instruments often produce the harmony of songs and, occasionally, the melody.

Brass instruments include trumpet, trombone, french horn, and tuba. Brass instruments often produce the harmony of songs, the trumpet produces the melody a lot though.

String instruments include guitars, violins, cello, bass, ukulele, and banjo. String instruments produce both the harmony and the melody. These instruments often produce really beautiful music, in my opinion.
