Drop a paper a piece of thermocol and a piece of plastic from a height of 10 to 15 feet not the time for each object to hit the

ground why does paper take more time than thermocol and thermocol more than the plastic piece make the paper to fell down in such a way that it should hit the ground before all of them and how does it happen

Answer:

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of gravitation , all objects should take same time to fall from same height , but it does not happen when we see a paper , a thermocol and a plastic paper to fall .

It happens due to air resistance . In case of paper , this is most pronounced , so it falls slowest . In case of plastic paper , the resistance is least so it falls fastest .

If we squeeze the piece of paper to make a lump so that it does not remain flat , it will fall the fastest , because in this case the air resistance on it becomes the least .

masya89 [10]
The equation for work (W) done by an electric field is:

W = qΔV

where q is the magnitude of the charge and ΔV is the potential difference. The question gives you W and q, so plug n' play to find ΔV:

10 = 2ΔV
ΔV = 5

The product of charge through, and potential across, an electrical device is:
melomori [17]
The option is Work.

The product of charge and potential is equal to the energy. Adn, as we know work is related to energy as the capacity to do work.  

Alos, because, Potential is given as, V = E/q
or E = Vq
Thus, t<span>he product of charge through, and potential across, an electrical device is:work

Why do aeroplanes take longer to fly west than east?
PolarNik [594]

Every planet/moon has global wind that are mostly determined by the way the planet/moon rotates and how evenly the Sun illuminates it. On the Earth the equator gets much more Sun than the poles. resulting in warmer air at the equator than the poles and creating circulation cells (or "Hadley Cells") which consist of warm air rising over the equator and then moving North and South from it and back round.

The Earth is also rotating. When any solid body rotates, bits of it that are nearer its axis move slower than those which are further away. As you move north (or south) from the equator, you are moving closer to the axis of the Earth and so the air which started at the equator and moved north (or south) will be moving faster than the ground it is over (it has the rotation speed of the ground at the equator, not the ground which is is now over). This results in winds which always move from the west to the east in the mid latitudes.

An ultrasound wave vibrates 30,000 times per second. what is the frequency
erica [24]
Frequency is given in units of Hertz (Hz) and is defined as the number of cycles per second.  The sound wave has 30,000 cycles per second, so its frequency is 30,000Hz.
This is more conveniently expressed as 30kHz, where the k indicates a multiplier of 1,000.

Consider the following objects and their locations. Object a 2-kg object 5 cm above the floor Object b 2-kg object 120 cm above
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The gravitational acceleration is same for all objects.

a = b = c = d

Explanation:

Acceleration due to gravity or gravitational acceleration is the force exerted by Earth on unit mass of an object.

Acceleration due to gravity doesn't depend on the height of the object when the height is object is near to the surface of the Earth. Only when the height is comparable to the radius of the Earth, the value of gravitational acceleration changes.

But for the objects here, the gravitational acceleration is independent of the mass or height of the objects and has a constant value of 9.8 m/s².

Therefore, the gravitational acceleration of all the objects is same.

If 'a', 'b', 'c', and 'd' represent gravitational accelerations of objects 'a', 'b', 'c', and 'd' respectively, then a = b = c = d.
