Answer:

Because in correspondence to the same distance from a mass, the gravitational acceleration is the same for all the bodies. It doesn't depend on the mass of the objects.

serious [3.7K]

Answer:920.31 J

Explanation:

Given

Volume of water (V)=14.1 cm^3

mass(m)=\rho \times V=1000\times 14.1\times 10^{-6}=14.1 gm

Temperature =8.4^{\circ} C

Final Temperature =-7.2 ^{\circ}C

specific heat of water(c)=4.184 J/g-^{\circ}C

Therefore heat required to removed is

Q=mc(\Delta T)

Q=14.1\times 4.184\times (8.4-(-7.2))

Q=920.31 J

A baseball is thrown horizontally at 55m/s. The ball slows down at a rate of -10 m/s2. How long is the ball in the air before co
sergejj [24]

The time of motion of the ball before coming to rest is  determined as 5.5 s.

<h3>Time of motion of the ball</h3>

The time of motion of the ball before coming to rest is calculated as follows;

v = u + at

when the ball comes to rest, v = 0

0 = u + at

0 = 55 + (-10)t

0 = 55 - 10t

10t = 55

t = 5.5s

Thus, the time of motion of the ball before coming to rest is 5.5 s.
