if we ignore air resistance the mass of an object does not affect the rate at which it accelerate why?​

Physics

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.

As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.

How do you find the value of e?
Nadusha1986 [10]
<h3>Answer: 22.48°</h3><h3 /><h3>Explanation:</h3>

refractive index = sin i / sin e

where i is the angle of incidence

e is the angle of refraction

1.5 = sin 35 / sin e

1.5 = 0.5736/sin e

sin e = 0.5736/ 1.5

sin e = 0.3824

e = 22.48°

What are the density, specific gravity and mass of the air in a room whose dimensions are 4 m * 6 m * 8 m at 100 kPa and 25 C.
Volgvan

Answer:

Density = 1.1839 kg/m³

Mass = 227.3088 kg

Specific Gravity = 0.00118746 kg/m³

Explanation:

Room dimensions are 4 m, 6 m & 8 m. Thus, volume = 4 × 6 × 8 = 192 m³

Now, from tables, density of air at 25°C is 1.1839 kg/m³

Now formula for density is;

ρ = mass(m)/volume(v)

Plugging in the relevant values to give;

1.1839 = m/192

m = 227.3088 kg

Formula for specific gravity of air is;

S.G_air = density of air/density of water

From tables, density of water at 25°C is 997 kg/m³

S.G_air = 1.1839/997 = 0.00118746 kg/m³

12. An object accelerates 16.3 m/s2 when a force of 4.6 newtons is applied to it.
ladessa [460]
The acceleration of body is given 16.3m/s2 and the force is given 4.6 N then
We know,
Force=mass*acceleration
Then,
Mass=force/acceleration
Mass=4.6/16.3
Mass=0.28kg
