Two pennies are dropped off a table, one that is just dropped off the edge, and one that is rolling horizontally before it drops. Which of the following statements is true? Both pennies will hit the floor at the same time If the horizontal speed of the second penny is increased, it will take more time to reach the floor. The penny just dropped off the edge will always take less time to reach the floor than the penny that is rolling horizontally Increasing the height of the drop will decrease the amount of time it takes for the pennies to hit the floor since they will accelerate faster none of the above

I am stuck on this practice question. It is a multi-step question that I am stuck on how to answer. It is asking What’s the total distance traveled by the bug between t = 0 s and the time when the record comes to a stop? I need to first do the following: Calculate the magnitude of the initial tangential velocity of the bugat t = 0 s How long does it take for the bug to come to a stop?

To test the effects of high acceleration onthe human body, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) constructed a large centrifuge at the Manned SpacecraftCenter in Houston. In this device, astronauts were placed in a capsulethat moved in a circular path with a radius of 15 m. If the astronautsin this centrifuge experienced a centripetal acceleration 9.0 timesthat of gravity, what was the linear speed of the capsule?

A space station is rotated at a constant angular speed 'w' in order to produce artificial gravity (centripetal acceleration) on board. Theoretically speaking, what can be said about this acceleration at the astronaut's head as compared to that at his feet (due to artificial gravity)? O acceleration at his head is greater than at his feet O acceleration at his head is equal to that at his feet O acceleration at both his head and his feet is zero O acceleration at his head is less than at his feet
