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?

Two blocks are connected by a massless rope. The rope passes over an ideal (frictionless and massless) pulley such that one block with mass m1 = 12 kg is on a horizontal, frictionless table and the other block with mass m2 = 7.5 kg hangs vertically. Both blocks experience gravity and the tension force, T. Use the coordinate system specified in the diagram. Solve for the magnitude of the acceleration, a1, of the block of mass m1, in meters per square second. Find the magnitude of the tension in the rope, T, in newtons.

On a spending spree in Malaysia, you buy an ox with a weight of 28.9 piculs in the local unit of weights: 1 picul = 100 gins, 1 gin = 16 tahils, 1 tahil = 10 chees, and 1 chee =10 hoons. The weight of 1 hoon corresponds to a mass of 0.3779 g. When you arrange to ship the ox home to your astonished family, how much mass in kilograms must you declare on the shipping manifest? (Hint: Set up multiple chain-link conversions.)
