LAB 3 - If you drop a feather and penny in a vacuum ( no resistance), which one would hit the ground first? -They will hit at the same time. -The penny will hit first. -The feather will hit first.

They will hit at the same time.

LAB 3 - Given the kinematics equation for the motion of an object falling from rest, x=.5g*t2), what kind of relationship is predicted between x and t? (select all that apply) x=k*t, where k is a constant x=k*t+b, where k and b are constants. displacement, x, has a linear relationship with time, t. displacement, x, and time, t, obey a power law. diplacement, x, is proportional to the square of the time, t2. x=k*t2, where k is a constant. displacement, x, is proportional to time, t.
