If you pour sand into a cup(empty) why would it change? 
If it had water in it then the sand <span>will sink to the bottom</span>, and not change forms.

If you, for example, poured it onto a wide cup with a volume equal to the total volume of the sand particles, the sand would not spread out to fill the container but would bunch up together in the middle.

Puck B has twice the mass of puck A. Starting from rest, both pucks are pulled the same distance across frictionless ice by stri
gogolik [260]

Answer:

(a) 1 : 2

(b) same

Explanation:

Let the mass of puck A is m and the mass of puck B is 2 m.

initial speed for both the pucks is same as u and the distance is same for both is s.

let the tension is T for same.

The kinetic energy is given by

K = 0.5 mv^2

(a) As the speed is same, so the kinetic energy depends on the mass.

So, kinetic energy of A : Kinetic energy of B = m : 2m  = 1 : 2

(b) A the distance s same so the final velocities are also same.

Given the distance traveled and time elapsed, the average speed of the train is approximately 26.944m/s.

<h3>What is the average speed of the train?</h3>

Speed is simply referred to as distance traveled per unit time.

Mathematically, Speed = Distance ÷ time.

Given the data in the question;

  • Distance traveled = 221miles
  • Elapsed time = 3 hours and 40 minutes

First we convert miles to meters and Hours minutes to seconds.

221 miles = ( 221 × 1609.344 )m = 355665.024 meters

3 hours and 40 minutes = ( 3×60×60)s + ( 40×60)s

= 10800s + 2400s

= 13200s

Now, determine the average speed.

Speed = Distance ÷ time

Speed = 355665.024m / 13200s

Speed = 26.944m/s

Given the distance traveled and time elapsed, the average speed of the train is approximately 26.944m/s.

Why is a minimum of three seismic stations needed to find the epicenter of an earthquake?
vazorg [7]

Each station can detect how far away the epicenter was. So each station basically has a circle made of possible epicenters. When you have three, you narrow it down to one, final point.
