Aball is released from a hot air balloon moving downward with a velocity of -10.0 meters/second and a height of 1,000 meters. how long did it take the ball to reach the surface of earth?

If gases like carbon dioxide and methane make up less than 1% of the total atmosphere, why is it important for scientists to monitor changes in percentages of these gases?

Boxing gloves are padded to lessen the force of a blow. (a) calculate the force exerted by a boxing glove on an opponent’s face, if the glove and face compress 7.50 cm during a blow in which the 7.00-kg arm and glove are brought to rest from an initial speed of 10.0 m/s. (b) calculate the force exerted by an identical blow in the gory old days when no gloves were used and the knuckles and face would compress only 2.00 cm. (c) discuss the magnitude of the force with glove on. does it seem high enough to cause damage even though it is lower than the force with no glove?

Charge is distributed along the entire x-axis with uniform density λ. how much work does the electric field of this charge distribution do on an electron that moves along the y-axis from y = a to y = b? (use the following as necessary: a, b, ε0, λ, and q for the charge on an electron.)
