Astudent is testing the kinematic equations for uniformly accelerated motion by measuring the time it takes for light-weight plastic balls to fall to the floor from a height of 3 m in the lab. the student predicts the time to fall using g as 9.80 m/s2 but finds the measured time to be 35% greater. which of the following is the most likely cause of the large percent error?
(a) the acceleration due to gravity is 70% greater than 9.80 m/s2 at this location.(b) the acceleration due to gravity is 70% less than 9.80 m/s2 at this location.(c) air resistance increases the downward acceleration.(d) the acceleration of the plastic balls is not uniform.(e) the plastic balls are not truly spherical.

The starship enterprise is caught in a time warp and spock is forced to use the primitive techniques of the 20th century to determine the specific heat capacity of an unknown mineral. the 125-g sample was heated to 96.3°c and placed into a calorimeter containing 85.9 g of water at 20.0°c. the heat capacity of the calorimeter was 14.2 j/k. the final temperature in the calorimeter was 24.5°c. what is the specific heat capacity (in j/g°c) of the mineral? enter to 4 decimal places.
