Explanation :

The given picture shows a plastic bottle and a block made of concrete.

Minerals are the naturally occurring substance. All minerals have a specific chemical formula.

So, the statement that is correct about the plastic and the concrete is :

Both plastic and concrete are not minerals. This is because they are made by humans.

Plastics are produced by a process of polymerization or polycondensation process and cement is produced by mixing water, aggregate, and cement, etc.

Hence, the correct option is (b).

What feature of an object does not affect air resistance?

lakkis [162]

The amount of air resistance an object experiences depends on its speed, its cross-sectional area, its shape and the density of the air. Air densities vary with altitude, temperature and humidity. Nonetheless, 1.29 kg/m3 is a very reasonable value. The shape of an object affects the drag coefficient (Cd)

Two rocks are at the top of a building. Rock 1 is dropped from rest while Rock 2 is thrown horizontaly at a velocity of 5 ms.

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

I'm pretty sure the answer is 0 m/s²

Explanation:

The horizontal velocity of the second rock is 5 m/s, so if we pretend air resistance doesn't exist, it will maintain that horizontal velocity, meaning that there is no horizontal acceleration.
