Answer:
When the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.
What is specific heat capacity?
Specific heat capacity is the quantity
of heat required to raise a unit mass of
a substance by 1 kelvin.
Specific heat capacity of water and sand
{<em>refer to the above attachment}</em>
Δθ = Q/mc
Thus, for an equal mass of water and sand, when the same amount of heat is added to cold sand and cold water, the temperature change of sand will be higher because of its lower specific heat capacity.
The momentum, p, of any object having mass m and the velocity v is
Let 
and 
be the masses of the large truck and the car respectively, and 
and V_S be the velocities of the large truck and the car respectively.
So, by using equation (i),
the momentum of the large truck 
and the momentum of the small car 
.
If the large truck has the same momentum as a small car, then the condition is
The equation (ii) can be rearranged as
So, the first scenario:
So, to have the same momentum, the ratio of mass of truck to the mass of the car must be equal to the ratio of velocity of the car to the velocity of the truck.
The other scenario:
So, to have the same momentum, the ratio of mass of truck to the velocity of the car must be equal to the ratio of mass of the car to the velocity of the truck.
Answer:
2500 Newtons
Explanation:
If force equals the mass × acceleration then all should be quite simple
25kg is the mass of your car
100 m/s/s is the acceleration of you car
25kg • 100m/s/s = 2500 Newtons
Answer:
No
Explanation:
I don't think the universe has a starting and ending point because the universe is vast and has not been fully discovered. I think that the universe is endless because all of the stars, planets, and galaxy's have yet to be found and the end or start of the universe is also yet to be discovered so I think that the universe could go on forever.

Answer: A inclined plane and staircase reaching the same height. Work depends on initial and final position only.
Explanation:
The amount of work done does not depend on path length. It depends on initial and final position. It is given by gravitational potential energy.
W = m g h
Where, m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.
Let the mass of the object be m. Two different paths ( one inclines plane and another staircase) are taken to same point. The object would gain same gravitational potential energy because it depends on the height through which the object is taken and not the actual path length.
W ∝ h.
2)
Spring constant can be defined as the ratio of amount of force acting spring with the displacement caused due to the force. A deformed elastic object has elastic potential energy stored in it which is equal to the work done to deform the object. It is proportional to the spring constant and amount of stretched distance.
Equilibrium is reached when the net force acting on the spring is zero. In equilibrium state, the object has natural extension. An object is said to possess elastic potential energy when force is applied and object deforms relative to original equilibrium shape or length.
