Arlecino [84]3 years ago

Answer:

First, the meters is the unit used in almost all the world today.

Then using meters as your unit will be easier to read and interpret for a larger number of people than if you use an older system, like hands or steps.

And because of the fact that almost all the world uses the meter as the unit for length, almost all the equations and formulas are written in meters.

Precision: The meter is exactly defined as:

"The length of the path traveled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second"

So the meter is an exact (and accepted) unit.

Then using this unit for measures of length also provides some " legitimacy" for you measure.

Mkey [24]
During the first phase of acceleration we have:
v o = 4 m/s;  t = 8 s; v = 13 m/s, a = ?
v = v o + a * t
13 m/s = 4 m / s + a * 8 s
a * 8 s = 9 m/s
a = 9 m/s : 8 s
a = 1.125 m/s²
The final speed:
v = ?;  v o = 13 m/s; a = 1.125 m/s² ;  t = 16 s
v = v o + a * t
v = 13 m/s + 1.125 m/s² * 16 s
v = 13 m/s + 18 m/s = 31 m/s

Question: Is a flame matter?<br> .<br> Claim: (Write a statement that answers the question)
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space. The flame itself is a mixture of gases (vaporized fuel, oxygen, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, water vapor, and many other things) and so is matter. <em><u>The light produced by the flame is energy, not matter.</u></em>
