Answer:
By ‘inserting’ you means to putting a resistor in series. In this case, no, there is no resistance that would produce the same effect as a short circuit.
If you adding a resistor in parallel with the circuit, then if it had a low value It might be similar to a short circuit. I
Answer: 17.68 s
Explanation:
This problem is a good example of Vertical motion, where the main equation for this situation is:
(1)
Where:
is the height of the ball when it hits the ground
is the initial height of the ball
is the initial velocity of the ball
is the time when the ball strikes the ground
is the acceleration due to gravity
Having this clear, let's find
from (1):
(2)
Rewritting (2):
(3)
This is a quadratic equation (also called equation of the second degree) of the form
, which can be solved with the following formula:
(4)
Where:



Substituting the known values:
(5)
Solving (5) we find the positive result is:

Answer:
because the mass of the apple is very less compared to the mass of earth. Due to less mass the apple cannot produce noticable acceleration in the earth but the earth which has more mass produces noticable acceleration in the apple. thus we can see apple falling on towards the earth but we cannot see earth moving towards the apple.
