True, because for example you are on a bus and you want to know if you are moving or not so you look at a house which doesn't move and stays stationary.
Answer:
The time taken for the paint ball to hit the ground is 
The distance of the landing point from the tower is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height of the tower is 
The speed of the paintball in the horizontal direction is 
Generally from kinematic equation we have that

Here u is the initial velocity of the paintball in the vertical direction and the value is 0 m/s , this because the ball was fired horizontally
a is equivalent to 
t is the time taken for the paintball to hit the ground
So

=> 
Generally the distance of its landing position from the tower is

=> 
=>
Answer:
negative acceleration of 4m/s²
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Initial velocity = 66m/s
Final velocity = 26m/s
Time taken = 10s
Unknown:
Description of the acceleration = ?
Solution:
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time.
It is mathematically expressed as;
acceleration =
v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
t is the time taken
Now insert the parameters and solve;
Acceleration =
= -4m/s²
So, we see a negative acceleration of 4m/s²
Answer:
x_{cm} = 4.644 10⁶ m
Explanation:
The center of mass is given by the equation
= 1 /
∑
Where M_{total} is the total masses of the system,
is the distance between the particles and
is the masses of each body
Let's apply this equation to our problem
M = Me + m
M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.36 10²²
M = 605.36 10²² kg
Let's locate a reference system located in the center of the Earth
Let's calculate
x_{cm} = 1 / 605.36 10²² [Me 0 + 7.36 10²² 3.82 10⁸]
x_{cm} = 4.644 10⁶ m
Wavelength = 3*10^8 / 1.3*10^6 = 237.69m
