A player throws a basketball with a force of 30.0 N. If the mass of the basketball is 0.625 kg, what acceleration (in m/s) does the player give to the ball?​

Consider a uniformly charged ring in the xy plane, centered at the origin. the ring has radius a and positive charge qdistributed evenly along its circumference. a)what is the direction of the electric field at any point on the z axis? . b)what is the magnitude of the electric field along the positive z axis? use k in your answer, where k=14πϵ0. d)the ball will oscillate along the z axis between z=d and z=−d in simple harmonic motion. what will be the angular frequency ω of these oscillations? use the approximation d≪a to simplify your calculation; that is, assume that d2+a2≈a2. express your answer in terms of given charges, dimensions, and constants

Aprisoner is forced to go into one of three rooms, but he can choose which room. the first room is ablaze with fire. the second one is rigged with explosives that will go off as soon as he enters. the third contains a pair of lions who haven't eaten in years. which room should he choose to survive?

When you see distant streetlights through smog, they look dimmer and redder than they do normally. but when you see the same streetlights through fog or falling snow, they look dimmer but not redder. use your knowledge of the interstellar medium to discuss the relative sizes of the particles in smog, fog, and snowstorms compared to the wavelength of light.
