Answer:

a, 22 kg and 22 kg

b, 215.8 N and 440 N

Explanation:

a

The mass of the ball remains constant and unchanged irrespective of where it has been to, need to go or is going. So, basically the mass of the ball on earth is as the same mass of the ball on the said planet, 22 kg

b

The weight of any object factors in the acceleration due to gravity of the said area(or planet).

W = mg, with m being the mass and g being the acceleration due to gravity.

On earth

W = 22 * 9.81 = 215.8 N

On the said planet,

W = 22 * 20 = 440 N

Do therefore, the weight is 215.8 N on earth and 440 N on the planet

Darya [45]
According to newton's third law of motion, when a hammer strikes and exerts force to push it into a piece of wood, the nail <span>C. exerts an equal or opposite force on the hammer. The third law of motion states that every action has an equal BUT opposite reaction. This means that the nail exerts the same force the hammer exerts on it.</span>

A rock is thrown vertically upward from some height above the ground. It rises to some maximum height and falls back to the grou
True [87]

Answer:

At the highest point the velocity is zero, the acceleration is directed downward.

Explanation:

This is a free-fall problem, in the case of something being thrown or dropped, the acceleration is equal to -gravity, so -9.80m/s^2. So, the acceleration is never 0 here.

I attached an image from my lecture today, I find it to be helpful. You can see that because of gravity the acceleration is pulled downwards.

At the highest point the velocity is 0, but it's changing direction and that's why there's still an acceleration there.

Why is it important to consider the experimental error in all the empirical results presented?
irinina [24]

Answer:

It is very important because scientists, especially the ones with empirical experiments and results, are prone to error and the empirical data is in need to be under strict observation done not only by many scientists but also by expermiented ones. This guards everybody to change the parameters suddenly which can affect the real results of an experiment
