The net force on the acorn is less than the force of gravity.
Explanation:What is centripetal acceleration?
Can an object accelerate if it's moving with constant speed? Yup! Many people find this counter-intuitive at first because they forget that changes in the direction of motion of an object—even if the object is maintaining a constant speed—still count as acceleration.
Acceleration is a change in velocity, either in its magnitude—i.e., speed—or in its direction, or both. In uniform circular motion, the direction of the velocity changes constantly, so there is always an associated acceleration, even though the speed might be constant. You experience this acceleration yourself when you turn a corner in your car—if you hold the wheel steady during a turn and move at constant speed, you are in uniform circular motion. What you notice is a sideways acceleration because you and the car are changing direction. The sharper the curve and the greater your speed, the more noticeable this acceleration will become. In this section we'll examine the direction and magnitude of that acceleration.
The figure below shows an object moving in a circular path at constant speed. The direction of the instantaneous velocity is shown at two points along the path. Acceleration is in the direction of the change in velocity, which points directly toward the center of rotation—the center of the circular path. This direction is shown with the vector diagram in the figure. We call the acceleration of an object moving in uniform circular motion—resulting from a net external force—the centripetal acceleration

The tennis ball lands at a point 40.4 m from the base of the building.
The tennis ball is projected with a horizontal velocity <em>u</em> from a window, which is at a height <em>y</em> from the ground. The ball lands at a distance <em>x</em> from the base of the building. Let the ball take a time <em>t</em> to reach the ground. In the time <em>t</em> ,the ball falls a vertical distance <em>y</em> and also travel a horizontal distance <em>x</em>.
The initial vertical velocity of the ball is zero, since the ball is projected in the horizontal direction. The ball falls down under the action of gravitational force.
Thus, use the equation of motion,
rewrite the expression for <em>t</em> and calculate the value of <em>t</em> using 9.81 m/s²for <em>g</em> and 500 m for <em>y</em>.
The horizontal distance <em>x</em> is traveled using the constant velocity <em>u </em>since no force acts on the ball in the horizontal direction.
Therefore,
Substitute 4 m/s for <em>u</em> and 10.096 s for <em>t</em>
Thus, the ball lands at a point 40.4 m from the base of the building.
Rubbing water (isopropyl alcohol) has lesser surface tension than that water.
Water possesses a surface tension of 72 dynes/cm.
Whereas rubbing alcohol has a surface tension of 23 dynes/cm.
<h3>what is surface tension?</h3>
Surface tension is the propensity of liquid surfaces at rest to shrink to the smallest possible surface area.
Because the atoms on the outside of the molecules (often hydrogens) lack strong hydrogen bonding capabilities, most organic liquids have very low surface tensions. Because isopropanol contains just 28%, OH and the remainder is CH or CH3, the linkages that hold a droplet together are few and far between.
The only substance with a higher surface tension than water is liquid mercury (450 dyne/cm).

Answer:
a) 
b) No
Explanation:
A) Because the electron is affected by an acceleration force in this case by the electric field, we can use the formulas of 2-dimension movement.
We will assume the electron missed the upper plate, so we need to calculate the time to travel all the way through the plate, that is:
so:
the electron experiences an accelerated motion in the vertical direction, so we can obtain the acceleration of the electron:
so:
now we can use the relation:
Now we can calculate the electric field:
B) Because the proton has the same charge but positive it will go in the opposite direction, so because we assume the electron didn't touch the plate, the proton won't.
