Acceration Due to Gravity, Play Ball and Making Waves
Question | Answer |
---|---|
True or False. Any two objects, regardless of their mass, have the same acceleration under gravity? | True |
Acceleration due to gravity is? | Constant That is, it is the same for every object. |
Why does a feather not fall at the same rate as a brick? | Because of friction |
What's the acceleration rate of any object dropped from above the earth? | 9.8 meters per second for every second it travels. For every additional second of falling, its velocity would increase by 9.8 meters per second: 19.6 meters per second after two seconds, 29.4 after three, 39.2 after four, 49.0 after five, and so on |
What is an orbit? | A circular motion |
Wave motion results from the action of focres on what? | Fluid (substances that "Flow." |
Is air a fluid? | Yes -- it moves in waves |
What is the branch of mathematics that deals with waves and other curves? | Trigonometry |
What is the process that makes strings on musical instruments, sound, earth tremors, light, radio signals, and X-rays to be compressed and expanded. | Vibration |
