can anyone explain how to do 8??


all objects fall at the same rate regardless of horizontal motion (unless they experience a vertical force, such as being shot at an angle).
 
hmm
number 5..

the size of the square is 10000*10000 = 1e8
twice the size: 2e8
then the length should be suare root of 2e8.

did I do something wrong?

Yeah I got 200,000,000 square meters for the area

I took the square root of that and got: 14142.135623730950488016887242097

Is that right?

Isn't it 10m per second? But i forgot the weight that falls at that rate.

I guess I need a calculator and round the number

Now I realized that someone make the calculation for me thanks. noneed to open calculator.

It obviously depends on where the object is, but on most places on earth, the acceleration of gravity of about 9.8 m/s^2.
