Here's an interesting challenge you can give to a friend. Hold a $1 bill by the upper corner. Have a friend prepare to pinch the

lower corner, putting their fingers near but not touching the bill. Tell them to try to catch the bill when you drop it simply by closing their fingers. It seems easy but it isn't. It would take them about 0.25 seconds to react and close their fingers— which isn't fast enough to catch the bill. How much time does it take for the bill to fall beyond her grasp? The length of the bill is 16cm.

The formula for falling in gravity from rest is

D = (1/2) (g) (t)²

Distance = (1/2) (gravity) (falling time)²

Solve this for time, and you find that

Time = √(2·distance/gravity)

For this problem, distance = 16 cm, and gravity on Earth always = 9.8 m/s².

Write those numbers in, and we get

Time = √(32 cm) / (9.8 m/s²)

time = √(0.32 / 9.8) (s²)

time = 0.18 second

The whole dollar bill falls through the catcher's fingers before he can pinch.  THAT's why a person can't react fast enough to catch the falling bill.

I would say that it would take her 35 * 2 cashing Bill properly because I multiply 0.25 times 16 which gave me 1.50 + 2.50 equals 3.50

Solutions with ions that react with acids or bases to lessen their effects are fubrefs
Softa [21]

Answer:

Buffers

Explanation:

A buffer solution is a solution containing weak acids and their salts or weak bases and their salts.

A buffer solution is an equilibrium system that resists changes in pH or pOH when a small amount of an acid or base is added hence it is a solution of fairly constant pH value.
