Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

The horizontal motion doesn't affect the vertical motion.  Since the two spheres have the same initial vertical velocity and same initial height, they land at the same time.

Answer:

A. Both spheres land at the same time.

Explanation:

If air resistance and friction are ignored, then both spheres land at the same time. Falling objects fall toward the center of the Earth with the same constant acceleration, independent of their mass, when they are defined to be in free-fall. For an object to be in free-fall, it has to be in a situation in which both air resistance and friction are considered negligible. This is true regardless of the direction of the fall.

The mass number of a nucleus (except Hydrogen) is:
netineya [11]
The mass number of a nucleus (except Hydrogen) is: number of protons + number of neutrons.

A=Z+N

A=mass number=protons + neutrons.
Z=atomic number=number of protons.
N=number of neutrons. 

In the case of Hydrogen it depends of isotope of Hydrogen . 
the hydrogen has three isotopes, 
protium : A=Z, because N=0
deuterium:  A=Z+N;   N=1
 tritium: A=Z+N;    N=2

Zeb was lifting a box onto a moving truck. He lifted with a net force of 2000N and the box had a mass of 100 kg. What was the re
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

<h2>20 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{2000}{100}  = 20 \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>20 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

SKID

Explanation:

In general, airplane tracks are flat, they do not have cant, consequently the friction force is what keeps the bicycle in the circle.

Let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the horizontal x-axis and the vertical y-axis.

Y axis y

     N- W = 0

     N = W

X axis (radial)

        fr = m a

the acceleration in the curve is centripetal

         a = \frac{v^2}{r}

the friction force has the expression

        fr = μ N

we substitute

       μ mg = m v²/r

       v = \sqrt{\mu g r}

we calculate

      v = \sqrt{0.1 \ 9.8 \ 3}

      v = 1,715 m / s

to compare with the cyclist's speed let's reduce to the SI system

        v₀ = 18 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1 h / 3600 s) = 5 m / s

We can see that the speed that the cyclist is carrying is greater than the speed that the curve can take, therefore the cyclist will SKID
