Answer:

9.8 meters per square second

Explanation:

Free Falling Object. the value of g is 9.8 meters per square second on the surface of the earth. The gravitational acceleration g decreases with the square of the distance from the center of the earth. But for many practical problems, we can assume this factor to be a constant.

Answer:

$\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}$

Explanation:

Radius of the pollen is given as

$r = 12.0 \mu m$

Volume of the pollen is given as

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi (12\mu m)^3$

$V = 7.24 \times 10^{-15} m^3$

mass of the pollen is given as

$m = \rho V$

$m = 7.24 \times 10^{-12}$

so weight of the pollen is given as

$W = mg$

$W = (7.24 \times 10^{-12})(9.81)$

$W = 7.1 \times 10^{-11}$

Now electric force on the pollen is given

$F = qE$

$F = (-0.700\times 10^{-15})(95)$

$F = 6.65 \times 10^{-14} N$

now ratio of electric force and weight is given as

$\frac{F}{W} = \frac{6.65 \times 10^{-14}}{7.1 \times 10^{-11}}$

$\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}$

in vision, the ____ stream controls identification of an object, and the ____ stream controls action toward the object.

prisoha [69]

Answer: In vision, the ventral stream controls identification of an object, and the dorsal stream controls action toward the object.

Explanation: The ventral stream is associated with object recognition and form representation.

Dorsal stream a pathway that carries visual information from the primary visual cortex to the parietal lobe.

Hope it helps :)

An airplane is flying at a speed of 45 m/s when it drops a 40 kg food package to the Polar exploration team. If the plane drops

Alina [70]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to energy conservation, so the potential energy in the package must be equivalent to its kinetic energy. From there we will find the speed of the package in the vertical component. The horizontal component is given, as it is the same as the one the plane is traveling to. Vectorially we will end up finding its magnitude. So,

$PE = KE$
