While falling, both the sheet of paper and the paper ball experience air resistance. But the surface area of the sheet is much more than that of the spherical ball. And air resistance varies directly with surface area. Hence the sheet experiences more air resistance than the ball and it falls more slowly than the paper ball.
Hope that helps!
1) push down on the end of the lever, and 2) 3/4 of the way from the fulcrum
Answer:5
Explanation:
Given
speed of object 
radius of circle 
Force towards the center 
Work done is given by the dot product of Force and displacement
and we know know displacement of the object is along the circle which is perpendicular to the force acting therefore Work done will be zero


Answer:
In the 1980s, astronomers turned to multiverse theory to explain the “luckily small” amount of dark energy in our universe. According to cosmologist's theories, this small amount of dark energy appeared to enable our universe to host life, while most universes in the multiverse couldn't.
Explanation:
A) 1.55
The speed of light in a medium is given by:

where
is the speed of light in a vacuum
n is the refractive index of the material
In this problem, the speed of light in quartz is

So we can re-arrange the previous formula to find n, the index of refraction of quartz:

B) 550.3 nm
The relationship between the wavelength of the light in air and in quartz is

where
is the wavelenght in quartz
is the wavelength in air
n is the refractive index
For the light in this problem, we have

Therefore, we can re-arrange the equation to find
, the wavelength in air:
