I know something that a lot of people know but they get in trouble when they try to use it.  I got it a long time ago from my old school buddy Ike Newton.  I'll tell it to you, but you have to keep it to yourself, don't spread it around, and don't tell a lot of people where you got it.  

Here it is:

<em>For every action, there is a reaction that is EQUAL and opposite. </em>

That means that if Jane pushes on the rock with 100 Newtons of force,

then <u><em>The rock pushes on Jane with 100 Newtons of force.</em></u>

It doesn't matter how much Jane's mass is, it doesn't matter what the mass of the rock is, and it doesn't even matter whether Jane is moving, or the rock is moving, or both of them are moving.  If there's an action, then you can bet yer britches that there's a RE-action, and the RE-action is EQUAL and OPPOSITE to the action.

Why is this so hard ?

Two pieces of evidence for plate tectonics?
Reika [66]
Evidence from fossils, glaciers, and complementary coastlines helps reveal how the plates once fit together. Fossils tell us when and where plants and animals once existed. Some life "rode" on diverging plates, became isolated, and evolved into new species.

A balloon contains helium with a mass of 0.00296 g. What is the volume of helium in the balloon? (Note: Helium’s density is 0.00
Over [174]

Answer:

178 cm3

Explanation:

From definition of density, it is mass per unit volume of an object, expressed as density=mass/volume and making volume the subject of the above formula we have volume= mass/density and substituting 0.00296 g for mass and 0.00001663 g/cm3 for density then we have

Volume=0.00296/0.00001663

Volume is approximately 178 cm3

Why is an iron bolt attracted to a magnet?
icang [17]

Answer:

A. When it is in a magnetic field, it becomes a temporary magnet.

Explanation:

An iron bolt is attracted to a magnet because when in a magnetic field, the iron becomes a temporary magnet.

This is because the iron aligns their electrons in the magnetic fields.

  • This causes that attraction between the magnet and the iron.
  • Metals like iron are said to be ferromagnetic
  • Unpaired electrons in iron spin in such a way that they align with the magnetic fields of the magnet.

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity with time;

  A  = \frac{v - u}{t}  

A is the acceleration

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken
