If you throw a rock off a cliff, how fast will it be traveling just before it hits the ground? Assume that the rock is thrown horizontally. You throw the rock at 7.2 m/s and the cliff is 15 meters high.

Learning goal: to understand newton's 1st law. newton's principia states this first law of motion: an object subject to no net force maintains its state of motion, either at rest or at constant speed in a right line. this law may be restated as follows: if the sum of all forces acting on an object is zero, then the acceleration of that object is zero. mathematically this is just a special case of the 2nd law of motion, f⃗ =ma⃗ , when f⃗ =0. when studying newtonian mechanics, it is best to remember the 1st law in two ways: if the net force (i. e., sum of all forces) acting on an object is zero, the object will keep moving with constant velocity (which may be zero). if an object is moving with constant velocity, that is, with zero acceleration, then the net force acting on that object must be zero. complete the following sentences to see if you can apply these ideas. part a if a car is moving to the left with constant velocity, one can conclude that

Because air contracts as it cools, the air pressure inside a freezer is typically lower than on the outside. why do ice cubes inside a freezer tend to shrink over time? the ice sublimes, and then the water vapor deposits as ice crystals on the sides of the freezer. the ice melts, and then the liquid freezes as ice crystals on the bottom of the freezer. the ice dissolves oxygen from the air, forming a denser crystalline matrix. the ice reacts chemically with carbon dioxide in the air, forming gaseous carbon compounds.
