Question

warm up: is the earth the center of our solar system? what is the name of the force that makes things fall down when we drop them? is there a more complex version of math than algebra? if so, what is the name of one? if i drop a 10b bowling ball and a 50lb weight at the same time, will they both hit the ground at the same time? what color is a beam of light? notes 1. think back to the quarantine during the beginning of the covid - 19 pandemic. what did you do with your time during those weeks/months? do you feel it was productive, or were you just trying to pass the time? 2. do you think there were people being very productive with their time besides possibly yourself during the quarantine?

Explanation:

1. The Earth is not the center of the solar - system; the Sun is. Gravity is the force that makes things fall. Calculus is a more complex area of math than algebra in many respects. In the absence of air resistance, a 10 - lb bowling ball and a 50 - lb weight would hit the ground at the same time due to the acceleration of gravity being the same for all objects near the Earth's surface. A beam of light is white, which is a combination of all visible colors. For the COVID - 19 quarantine questions, answers would vary from person to person based on individual experiences.

Answer:

1. No, the Sun is the center of the solar system.
2. Gravity.
3. Yes, for example, Calculus.
4. Yes (in the absence of air resistance).
5. White.
6. Answers vary based on personal experience.
7. Answers vary based on personal observation.
