Answer:

A. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object, while weight is a measure of the force of gravity on the object.

Explanation:

Mass is also a scalar quantity associated with the amount of atoms and/or molecules that constitutes the object. While weight is a force due to the action of gravity (either on our planet or any other one) and therefore a vector quantity that we routinely use as scalar due to the fact that it is always pointing down (towards the center of the Earth) so we ignore a bit the direction associated with it.

Does anyone know this one? Thanks
Inessa [10]

Answer:

3.844\,*\,10^5

So a=3.844 and b=5

Explanation:

Scientific notation requests to write a number using powers of ten as a factor accompanying a real number (a) between 1 and smaller than 10 that contains the digits to exactly represent the original number. So in this case, the number 384,400 can be written as:

384,400=3.844 \,*\,100,000= 3.844 \,*\,10^5

with a=3.844, and "5" as the exponent of ten (so b=5)

Some drops a ball off of the top of a 125-m-tall building. In this prob-lem, you will be solving for the time it takes the ball
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

t = 5.05 s

Explanation:

This is a kinetic problem.

a) to solve it we must fix a reference system, let's use a fixed system on the floor where the height is 0 m

b) in this system the equations of motion are

              y = v₀ t + ½ g t²

where v₀ is the initial velocity that is v₀ = 0 and g is the acceleration of gravity that always points towards the center of the Earth

e)    y = 0 + ½ g t²

     t = √ (2y / g)

     t = √(2 125 / 9.8)

     t = 5.05 s
