b) The red ball hits the ground first.
c) The yellow ball hits the ground first.
d) It depends on your point of view.

A marble is rolled into a center of a spiral tube that is lying on a table (neglect gravity). What shape path will it follow when it emerges?
a) Straight out of the tube.
b) Curved in the direction of the spiral.
c) Curved in the opposite direction of the spiral.
d) A parabola.

Two basketballs are projected off the edge of 2 tables, one red and one yellow. The yellow one has an initial height of 5.0 m; the red one has an initial height of 3.5 m. (Assume air resistance is negligible). Choose the true statement.
a) Both balls hit the ground at the same distance from the table.
b) The red ball hits the ground further from the table.
c) The yellow ball hits the ground further from the table.
d) There are no balls. It’s a conspiracy.

Two basketballs are projected off the edge of a table, one red and one yellow. The yellow one has a mass of 5.0 g; the red one has a mass of 3.5 g. (Assume air resistance is negligible). Choose the true statement.
a) Both balls hit the ground at the same distance from the table.
b) The red ball hits the ground further from the table.
c) The yellow ball hits the ground further from the table.
d) The combined forces of gravity and centripetal acceleration will keep the ball on the table indefinitely.

A white Ping-Pong ball is projected off the edge of a 1.0-m-high table with a horizontal velocity of 7.0 m/s. An orange Ping-Pong ball is DROPPED from the same height as the white one. Choose the true statement.
a) Both balls hit the ground at the same time.
b) The white ball hits the ground first.
c) The orange ball hits the ground first.
d) The white ball will float, because it is less dense than water.

A white Ping-Pong ball is projected off the edge of a 1.0-m-high table with a horizontal velocity of 7.0 m/s. An orange Ping-Pong ball is DROPPED from the same height as the white one. Choose the true statement.
