If we have to figure air resistance into it, then we don't have enough information to find an answer.  

If the air around it is going to have an effect on how it falls, then it'll depend on the thickness of the book, the shape of the book, whether it's a hard-cover or soft-cover, how far the covers stick out past the pages, how smooth or rough the covers are, how bumpy the binding it. and what position you hold it in before you let it go.

(THAT's why we always ignore air resistance, especially when the question is actually about gravity anyway.)

A racecar traveling at a velocity of 18.5 m/s, accelerates at a rate of 2.47 m/s2 and covers a distance of 79.78 m. Determine th
Vesna [10]

Answer:

The final velocity of the race car is 27.14 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the race car, u = 18.5 m/s

acceleration of the race car, a = 2.47 m/s²

distance covered by the race car, s = 79.78 m

Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the final velocity of the race car.

v² = u² + 2as

v² = (18.5)² + 2(2.47)(79.78)

v² = 736.363

v = √736.363

v = 27.14 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of the racecar is 27.14 m/s

What kind of lens curve inward toward its center​
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

A concave lens is exactly the opposite with the outer surfaces curving inward, so it makes parallel light rays curve outward or diverge. That's why concave lenses are sometimes called diverging lenses.
