-- An object acted on by only the force of gravity, on or near Earth's surface,
accelerates downward at the rate of about 9.8 m/s² without air resistance. 

-- That number is "the acceleration due to gravity, on Earth".

-- The object in that situation is said to be in "free fall".

Two hockey pucks with mass 0.1 kg slide across the ice and collide. Before
RideAnS [48]

The velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

<h3>What is the conservation of momentum?</h3>

The principle of the conservation of the linear momentum states that momentum before collision is equal to momentum after collision.

Now given that;

m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2

(0.1 * 15) - (0.1 * 12) = 0.1* v + (0.1 * 15)

1.5 - 1.2 = 0.1v + 1.5

0.3 - 1.5 = 0.1v

v = -1.2/0.1

v = - 12 m/s

Hence, the velocity of pluck 1 is 12 m/s west.

Jeffery gains super strength and pushes two different objects with the same amount of force. Object A accelerates at 40 m/s2, an
Montano1993 [528]

Answer: Object B

Explanation: Acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass. It implies that more massive objects accelerates at a slower rate.

the hydrometer with the density of liquid to be 800 kg metre per square is the volume of the submerged part of the hydrometer is
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Mass = 0.04 Kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Density = 800 kg/m³

Volume = 5 * 10^{-5} m³

To find the mass of the object;

Density can be defined as mass all over the volume of an object.

Simply stated, density is mass per unit volume of an object.

Mathematically, density is given by the formula;

Density = \frac {mass}{volume}

Making mass the subject of formula, we have;

Mass = density * volume

Substituting the values into the formula, we have;

Mass = 800 * 5 * 10^{-5}

Mass = 0.04 Kg
