1.Galileo conducted experiments from the top of the Leaning Tower of Pisa. If he dropped a piece of burlap tied into a ball with twine and a 2-pound rock at the same time, what would he have seen and why? (5 points)

The time for both of the balls to reach the ground would be the same.

Explanation:

If no air resistance is present, the rate of descent depends only on how far the object has fallen, no matter how heavy the object is. This means that two objects will reach the ground at the same time if they are dropped simultaneously from the same height. ... In air, a feather and a ball do not fall at the same rate.

a person with a mass of 106kg has a weight of 1060n

answer: the exterior temperature of commercial jet planes as they leave the stratosphere and return to the ground increases steadily.

explanation:

the lower most layer of atmosphere is troposphere which extends from 0 to 12 km above the surface of the earth. the temperature initially decreases as distance is increased from the earth's surface. commercial jets fly in lower part of the stratosphere. the stratosphere extends upto 50 km. the temperature in stratosphere starts rising again due to presence of ozone which traps the uv rays.

thus, when the planes leave the stratosphere and return to the ground, the exterior temperature increases steadily.
