What is the difference between free fall and weightlessness??
joja [24]
When you are in free fall, the force of gravity is stronger than your velocity perpendicular to where you're falling, and you move at a constant speed downwards.

Under feelings of weightlessness, you are still being pulled by gravity, but your perpendicular velocity and distance from the source can cancel each other out.

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial velocity , u = 30 m/s

final velocity , v = 10 m/s

time , t = 5 seconds

1. Acceleration = v - u / t

= 10 - 30 / 5

= -20 / 5

= <u><em>- 4 m/s</em></u>

Which of the follow represent a chemical changes
mixer [17]

Answer:

C) steel turning to rust in salt air

Explanation:

The missing options are:

A) ice melting to form liquid water

B) water boiling to form steam

C) steel turning to rust in salt air

D) sugar dissolving into hot coffee

In a chemical change the atoms of the reacting compounds are reordered forming new compounds. In a chemical change, new compounds appear, but in a physical change not.

Then, change of states like ice melting and water boiling are not chemical changes.

During steel rust, components of steel, like iron, are oxidized, that is, reacts with oxygen forming oxides.

The dissolution of sugar into hot coffee is a physical change in which sugar molecules get further apart in the coffee,  but they don't change.
