Do heavier objects fall more slowly than lighter objects?
aksik [14]
Think of it like this, gravity has to pull harder on the heavier object to make them fall at the same rate , but doesn't have to pull as hard for the lighter object , thus is why sometimes heavier objects fall faster then lighter ones

Salem and Vernonville are 160 miles apart. A car leaves Salem traveling towards​ Vernonville, and another car leaves Vernonville
Paul [167]

Answer:

The speed of car leaves  Vernonville = 45 miles per hour

The speed of car leaves  Salem = 55 miles per hour

Explanation:

Given that distance between Salem and Vernonville = 160 miles

Lest take speed of car which leaves from Vernonville = V miles per hour

So the speed of car which leaves from Salem = V +10 miles per hour

These two car meet at time = 1 hr 36 min = 1.6 hr

Distance travel by car leaves from Salem = x

   x= (V+10) x 1.6    --------1

Distance travel by car leaves from Vernonville = 160 - x

  160 -  x= V x 1.6      ----------2

From equation 1 and 2

160 - (V+10) x 1.6  = V x 1.6

V= 45 miles per hour

So

The speed of car leaves  Vernonville = 45 miles per hour

The speed of car leaves  Salem = 55 miles per hour

A cart is moving at 55 m/s at an angle of 25° to the ground. Determine the horizontal component.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

<em>The horizontal component of the velocity is 49.85 m/s.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Rectangular Components of a Vector</u>

A 2D vector can be expressed in several forms. The rectangular form gives its two components, one for each axis (x,y). The polar form gives the components as the pair (r,θ) being r the magnitude and θ the angle.

When the magnitude and angle of the vector are given, the rectangular components are calculated as follows:

v_x=v\cos\theta

v_y=v\sin\theta

Where v is the magnitude of the vector and θ is the angle with respect to the x positive direction.

The cart is moving at v=55 m/s at θ=25°, thus:

v_x=55\cos 25^\circ

v_x=49.85\ m/s

The horizontal component of the velocity is 49.85 m/s.

A horizontal force of 150 N is used to push a 40.0-kg packing crate a distance of 6.00 m on a rough horizontal surface. If the c
icang [17]

Answer:

a. 900 J

b. 0.383

Explanation:

According to the question, the given data is as follows

Horizontal force = 150 N

Packing crate = 40.0 kg

Distance = 6.00 m

Based on the above information

a. The work done by the 150-N force is

W = F x = \mu N x = \mu\ m\ g\ x

W = 150 \times 6

= 900 J

b. Now the coefficient of kinetic friction between the crate and surface is

\mu = \frac {F}{m\timesg}

= \frac{150}{40\times 9.8}

= .383

We simply applied the above formulas so that each one part could calculate
