Answer:

- The accuracy in measuring its velocity decreases.

Explanation:

This can be explained by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle which states that the position and velocity of a particle can be determined together exactly in reality.

This principle, unlike Newtonian mechanics deal with particles at microscopic level like that of an electron where if the accuracy in measurement of particle's position increases there will be  decreased accuracy in measurement of velocity of that particle.

There will be an uncertainty in accuracy in the measurement of particle's position and its velocity.

Why does it take longer to boil a kettle of water than to warm the same kettle of water to a lower temperature?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The reason that it takes longer to get the water to boiling temperature than it is to cool it down again is because heating in the most simple sense is inefficient and will cause a lot if energy lost while cooling is to be turn's into quite a efficient process.

How do high-energy electrons from glycolysis and the krebs cycle contribute to the formation of atp from adp in the electron tra
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer

Together with glycolysis, The Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain release about 36 molecules of ATP per molecule of glucose.The Krebs cycle uses the two molecules of pyruvic acid formed in glycolysis and yields high-energy molecules of NADH and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FADH2), as well as some ATP. The electron transport chain forms a proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane, which drives the synthesis of ATP

What two factors affect the rate of acceleration of an object?
Masja [62]

For help with this answer, we look to Newton's second law of motion:

     Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Since the question seems to focus on acceleration, let's get
'acceleration' all alone on one side of the equation, so we can
really see what's going on.

Here's the equation again:

                                                 Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

Divide each side by 'mass',
and we have:                            Acceleration = (force) / (mass) .

Now the answer jumps out at us:  The rate of acceleration of an object
is determined by the object's mass and by the strength of the net force
acting on the object.
