Answer: A - It is a constant when the light is traveling in a vacuum.

Explanation: "Light in a vacuum always travels at the same speed." Those additional three words in a vacuum are very important. A vacuum is a region with no matter in it. So a vacuum would not contain any dust particles (unlike a vacuum cleaner, which is generally full of dust particles).

An 8.00 kg mass moving east at 15.4 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface collides with a 10.0 kg object that is initially at
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

9.3m/s

Explanation:

Based on the law of conservation of momentum

Sum of momentum before collision = sum of momentum after collision

m1u1 +m2u2 = m1v1+m2v2

m1 = 8kg

u1 = 15.4m/s

m2 = 10kg

u2 = 0m/s(at rest)

v1 = 3.9m/s

Required

v2.

Substitute

8(15.4)+10(0) = 8(3.9)+10v2

123.2=31.2+10v2

123.2-31.2 = 10v2

92 = 10v2

v2 = 92/10

v2 = 9.2m/s

Hence the velocity of the 10.0 kg object after the collision is 9.2m/s

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

1) solvent

2) liquid-solid

3) gas - gas

Explanation:

1) A solution is the homogenous mixture of two or more substances in such a way that its components are uniformly distributed. In any solution, the solvent make up the greatest quantity or volume while the solute is of lesser quantity.

2) liquid-solid is the most common type of solution.

3) A gas solution can be a gas dissolved in a gas, or a liquid dissolved in a gas, or a solid dissolved in a gas.  Air is a gas - gas solution, it is composed of oxygen and other dissolved gases in nitrogen

According to the Declaration, when do people have a right to revolution?
babunello [35]
Locke said that under natural law, all people have the right to life, liberty, and private property; under the social contract, the people could instigate a revolution against the government when it acted against the interests of citizens, to replace the government with one that served the interests of citizens.

What is the weight of a feather (mass = 0.0001 kg) that floats through earth's and the moon's atmospheres?
Dvinal [7]

Weight = (mass) x (acceleration of gravity)

Acceleration of gravity = 9.81 m/s² on Earth, 1.62 m/s² on the Moon.

The feather's weight is . . .

On Earth:  (0.0001 kg) x (9.81 m/s²) = <em>0.000981 Newton </em>

On the Moon:  (0.0001 kg) x (1.62 m/s²) = <em>0.000162 N</em>

The presence or absence of atmosphere makes no difference.  In fact, the numbers would be the same if the feather were sealed in a jar, or spinning wildly in a tornado, or hanging by a thread, or floating in a bowl of water or chicken soup.  Weight is just the force of gravity between the feather and the Earth.  It's not affected by what's around the feather, or what's happening to it.
