A small ball (mass of 0.5 kg) and a large brick (mass of 10 kg) are dropped from a height of 5 meters. Both items are released at the same time. Neglecting air resistance, which object has the greater acceleration?

Explanation:

We are given the following situation:

2 objects are dropped from a height of 5 meters and released at the same time. The small ball has a mass of 0.5 kilograms and the brick has a mass of 10 kilograms.

We are asked to find which object has the greater acceleration.

Since we are neglecting air resistance, neither object has a greater acceleration. All objects, without air resistance, have the same acceleration due to gravity: 9.8 m/s².

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..
