Answer: 4.9 N

Explanation:

Weight W is the force that gravity exerts on matter and changes depending on where the body is located. This means, the weight of an object on Earth will not be the same as the weight of the same object on the Moon or on Mars.

Well, in the case of Galileo, he performed his experiment on Earth. Hence, the acceleration due gravity is g=9.8 m/s^{2}.

In addition, weight is mathematically expressed as:

W=m.g

Where m=5 kg is the mass of the ball

Solving the equation:

W=(5 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})

W=4.9 N This is the weight of the ball

Operators must slow to no wake speed when within what distance of a u.s. naval vessel?
Alex Ar [27]
Recreational boaters have a role in keeping the waterways safe and secure. Violators of the restrictions can expect a quick and severe response. The operator should not approach within yards and slow to minimum speed within 500 yards of any of united states naval vessel. If the vessel need to pass within 100 yards of a united states naval vessel for safe passage, must contact the united states naval vessel or the united states coast guard escort vessel on VHF-FM channel 16. In addition,

• The operator must perceive and avoid all security areas.

• Avoid commercial port operation areas particularly those that include military cruise line or petroleum amenities. 

• The operator must perceive and avoid other controlled areas near dams, power plants, etc. 

• The operator of the vessel must not discontinue or anchor underneath bridges or in the channel.
