If a same sized tennis ball, a solid rubber ball, and a solid steel ball were dropped at the same time from the same height, which would hit the ground first? (assume there is no air resistance.) * the correct answer is all would hit at the same i just need to know !

If size of two balls are same and they are dropped from same height

Then the net force on two balls are given as

here we know that

= weight of the ball

= viscous or drag force of medium

now by Newton's II law we can find the acceleration of ball

now if we ignore the medium resistance as it is very small

so both the balls will have same acceleration

and also by kinematics we can say

so here we can see that since two balls are dropped from same height and the acceleration is also same for both so here it will take same time to reach the ground.

b.

explanation:

find the surface area of the sphere to the nearest square unit. use a calculator.

a. 254 in.2

b. 64 in.2

c. 127 in.2

d. 1,018 in.2
