Two balls have the same weight and surface texture, but one has twice the diameter of the other. How many times larger is the terminal speed of the smaller ball falling through air than that of the bigger ball?

A. The balls fall with the same speed in air. B. The smaller ball’s terminal speed is [2]1/2 times larger than the other’s. C. The smaller ball’s terminal speed is 2 times larger than the other’s. D. The smaller ball’s terminal speed is 4 times larger than the other’s. E. The smaller ball’s terminal speed is some other multiple of the other’s (specify).

The average rate of erosion on the Moon is far less than on Earth because:

A) the crust of the Moon is much denser than the Earth's crust. B) the Moon is much younger than the Earth. C) the Moon lacks wind, water and an atmosphere. D) the Moon's magnetic field protects it from the solar wind better than ours does. E) the Moon's mare long ago dried up, so there is no more wave erosion there.
