A group of students were investigating the force of gravity. They began by dropping a foam ball from a height of 3 meters into a

bucket of sand. The ball hit the sand in 0.306 seconds. They dropped additional balls of approximately the same diameter, but of different masses. Here is the data they collected. Based on this experiment and the collected data, what would their conclusion be?
A) Gravitational attraction is dependent on the mass of an object.
B) The greater the mass of the object the greater the acceleration due to gravity and the faster it will fall.
C) Mass does not affect the speed of falling objects assuming there is only the force of gravity acting on the objects.
D) Mass becomes a factor affecting the speed of a falling object when the object is dropped a great distance from the surface of the Earth.

A heat engine performs (245 + A) J of work in each cycle while also delivering (142 + B) J of heat to the cold reservoir. Find t
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

The value is \eta  =  54.4 \%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The work input is  W = ( 245 + A ) \  J

     The heat delivered is Q =  (142 + B) \  J

      The value of A is  A =  14

        The value of B  is  B  = 72

Generally the efficiency of the heat engine is mathematically represented as

          \eta  =  \frac{W}{Q_t}

Here  Q_t is the total out energy produce by the heat engine and this is mathematically represented as

           Q_t= Q + W

=>         Q_t=  245 + A + 142 + B

=>         Q_t=  390 + A+B

So

               \eta  =  \frac{245 + A }{390 + A+ B}

=>          \eta  =  0.544

=>          \eta  =  0.544 *100

=>          \eta  =  54.4 \%

Suppose a thick nimbostratus cloud contains ice crystals and cloud droplets all about the same size. Which precipitation process
Ronch [10]

Answer:The most important process would be the ice crystal process

Explanation:

Ice crystal process also called Bergeron process requires numerous small water drops that are supercooled, which is a common feature in clouds between about 0° and -20°C or below, along with a small number of ice crystals. Therefore because the collision-coalescence process requires that cloud droplets be of varying size so that drops will fill at different speeds, the most important process would be the ice crystal process.

The colored lines in the figure represent paths taken by different people walking around in a city. Assume that each city block
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer: 592.37m

Explanation:

Person D is the blue line.

The total displacement is equal to the difference between the final position and the initial position, if the initial position is (0,0) we have that he first goes down two blocks, then right 6 blocks. then up 4 blocks, then left 1 block.

Now i will considerate that the positive x-axis is to the right and the positive y-axis is upwards.

Then the new position will be, if B is a block:

P =(6*B - 1*B, -2*B + 4*B) = (5*B, 2*B)

And we know that B = 110m

P = (550m, 220m)

Now, then the displacement will be equal to the magnitude of our vector, (because the difference between P and the initial position is equal to P, as the initial position is (0,0))  this is:

P = √(550^2 + 220^2) = 592.37m

A sample of a gas in a rigid container at 30. 0°c and 2. 00 atm has its temperature increased to 40. 0°c. What will be the new p
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

2.066 atm

Explanation:

PV = nRT      increase T    volume and n and R remain constant

30 C = 303.15 K      40 C = 313.15

P  prop to T      new P   will be   313.15/303.15 * 2 atm = 2.066 atm

A man stands on a scale in an elevator as shown here. the force of his weight when the elevator is still is fg downward. suppose
Sever21 [200]
When the elevator moves downward, the man weighs less because of the inertia.
Force of Weight:Fg=m×g
Fs=m×g-m×1/4g=m×(g-1/4g)=m×3/4g
If He Went Up you would have to add 1/4g
