Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

If an object is flat and it falls it will go against the air (Air-Resistance) when falling down, which it will make the block go slower then a sphere which has no sides and will fall faster then the square or Block because there isn't a flat side it wont go against the air ( Air-Resistance).

No it do not but it uses gravity and falls fast So. The surface do not affect how fast objects fall. Hope this helps:)

A fuel tank holds 22.3 gallons of gasoline. If the density is 0.8206 g/mL, what is the mass in kilograms of gasoline in a full t

Answer:

$m=69.3kg$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the density is computed by dividing the mass of the substance by its occupied volume (d=m/V), we first need to realize that 0.8206 g/mL is the same to 0.8206 kg/L, which means we first need to compute the volume in L:

$V=22.3gal*\frac{3.78541L}{1gal}=84.415L$
