The northern hemisphere is experiencing winter because it is tilted away from the sun whereas the south experiences summer because it is tilted towards the sun

What would the scale read? zero
18 In free fall you are being pulled by a gravity. "Truly" weightless presumably happens in deep space where there is nothing to pull you.
19 coasters accelerate down to simulate weight loss/zeroised. As do NASA planes,
Roller coasters are for fun seekers. NASA is for science
Missing question: "What is the spring's constant?"
Solution:
The object of mass m=6.89 kg exerts a force on the spring equal to its weight:
When the object is attached to the spring, the displacement of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position is
And by using Hook's law, we can find the constant of the spring:
Firstly they have a acceleration downwards due the force downwards due they gravitational field acting on it's mass.
as it falls it gains speed, and as it gains speed the air Resistance which is a upward force actin on the drop increases, eventually the rain drop's upward and downward forces are balanced and hence there is no RESULTANT force therefore no acceleration, so the drops falls in constant speed (terminal verlocity is a better term)
Are you wondering that why is the raindrop still moving given that the forces are balanced? If so according to Newton's 1st law an object will keep moving or Remain at rest until a RESULTANT force acts on it.
