Select one: a. The ball will reach the ground first. b. Both objects will reach the ground at the same time. c. The marble will reach a greater height. d. The ball will reach the ground last.

Which of the following statement/s is/are correct regarding the concepts of motion? According to Aristotle, a body that is stationary will continue to be stationary unless a force is applied to it. According to Aristotle, a falling body accelerates because its weight increases as it approaches Earth’s surface. According to Galileo, a body in motion along a frictionless surface does not need an external force to maintain its motion. According to Galileo, objects fall at the same rate even if one object is more massive than the other object. 1 and 2 3 and 4 1,3, and 4 1,2,3 and 4 Which of the following is a correct explanation to one of the consequences of Special Relativity? A. Time Dilation describes that twins would have different age difference if they both travel close to the speed of light. B. Mass-energy Equivalence paved the way for humans to create grenades to be used during wars and political conflicts. C. Relativity of Simultaneity implies that two events would not…
A model rocket is fired vertically from rest. It has a constant acceleration of 21.9 m/s^2 for the first 1.50 s. Then the fuel is exhausted, and it is in free fall. The rocket has a mass of 99.8 g, the mass of the fuel is much less than 99.8 g (I.e. ignore the mass of the fuel). Ignore air resistance. (a) Calculate how high does the rocket travel. (b) how long after lift-off does the rocket return to the ground.

Vertical An object is moving at a constant speed on a frictionless surface. You apply two identical forces in the opposite direction simultaneously. Which of the following states is correct? a) The object's speed will increase b) The object's speed will decrease c) The object will keep moving with the same speed as if nothing has happened d) the object will change its color
PROBLEM: A ball with mass 0.15 kg is thrown upward with initial velocity velocity 20 m/s from the roof of a building 30 m high. Neglect air resistance. Assume that the conditions are the same as the above except that there is a force due to air resistance of magnitude |v| / 30 directed opposite to the velocity, where the velocity v is measured in m/s. a. Find the maximum height above the ground that the ball reaches. b. Find the time that the ball hits the ground. c. Plot the graphs of velocity and position versus time. *** If possible, please solve for part b using the graphing calculator? Thank you.

Anna Shcherbakova is a 2022 Beijing Olympics figure skating gold medalist for ladies’ singles.After warming up she starts her practice by skating towards the middle of the ice rink, 14 metersfrom the entrance. However, this time, one of her friends decided to trick her by pushing hertowards the middle at a velocity of 1.2 m/s (disregard friction between the ice and her skates).Recovering from the shock 2 seconds after, she starts pushing herself forward at an accelerationof 0.5 m/s2. What velocity will she have when she reaches the middle of the rink?
If a rocket in space is initially at rest and then accelerates at a rate of 50 m/s 2 for one minute (which is 60 seconds), how fast will it be going at that point? Your answer should be in units of m/s but you should only submit the number for your answer.
A simple way of measuring a person's reaction time is to let the person catch a freely-falling ruler or meter stick and then measure the distance from the point where the fingers of the person was placed before the ruler is released to the point where the person's finger was located after the ruler was released. If the distance of fall is 19 cm, what is the person's reaction time? A. 19 s B. 1.9 s C. 0.2 s D. 0.1 s
