Answer: c. they will hit the ground at the same time

Explanation:

The volume of both objects is almost the same, so the force of friction will be the same in each one, so we can discard it.

Now, when yo drop an object, the acceleration of the object is always g = 9.8m/s^2 downwards, independent of the mass of the object.

So if you drop two objects with the same volume but different mass, because the acceleration is the same for both of them, they will hit the ground at the same time, this means that the density of the object has no impact in how much time the object needs to reach the floor.

So the correct option is c

What is the gravitational force between a 45 kg person, and the Earth at 5.98 x 1024 kg, with a distance of
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

C. 441 N

Explanation:

Gravitational force between two objects can by calculated by the formula

= G m₁m₂ / r² , m₁ and m₂ are masses at distance r

= ( 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x 45 x 5.98 x 10²⁴) / ( 6.38 x 10⁶ )²

= 44.09 x 10

= 440.9 N

= 441 N .

Compare animal and plant cell
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

A plant cell contains a large, singular vacuole that is used for storage and maintaining the shape of the cell. In contrast, animal cells have many, smaller vacuoles. Plant cells have a cell wall, as well as a cell membrane. Animal cells simply have a cell membrane, but no cell wall.

hope this helps :)

Which is an example of electrical energy being converted or changed into light energy?
Lera25 [3.4K]
When I see the word "which" at the beginning of your question,
I just KNOW that there's a list of choices printed right there
next to he part that you copied, and for some mysterious
reason, you decided not to let us see the choices.

Any flashlight, light bulb, laser, or spark ... like lightning ...
converts some electrical energy into some light energy.
