Analyze how some insects are able to move around on the surface of a lake or pond

It is called surface tension it is the elastic personality of some liquids as they pull together to take up as little surface area as possible. the water molecules would rather stay together than be pulled apart<span />

Can someone explain the law of conservation of energy?

Bad White [126]

The law of conservation of energy is:

-- Energy can't be created or destroyed.

-- Energy can't just appear out of nowhere. If you suddenly have
more energy, then the 'extra' energy had to come from somewhere.

-- Energy can't just disappear. If you suddenly have less energy,
then the 'missing' energy had to go somewhere.
________________________________________

There are also conservation laws for mass and electric charge.
They say exactly the same thing. Just write 'mass' or 'charge'
in the sentences up above, in place of the word 'energy'.
________________________________________

And now I can tell you that the conservation laws for energy and mass
are actually one single law ... the conservation of mass/energy. That's
because we discovered about 100 years ago that mass can convert
into energy, and energy can convert into mass, and it's the total of BOTH
of them that gets conserved (can't be created or destroyed).

How much mass makes how much energy ?

The answer is E = m c² .

Two students are on a balcony 19.1 m above the street. One student throws a ball, b1, vertically downward at 13.9 m/s. At the sa

tester [92]

Answer:

Part a)

$t = 2.83 s$

Part b)

Ball thrown downwards = $v_f = 23.8 m/s$

Ball thrown upwards = $v_f = 23.8 m/s$

Part c)

$d = 22.24 m$

Explanation:

Part a)

Since both the balls are projected with same speed in opposite directions

So here the time difference is the time for which the ball projected upward will move up and come back at the same point of projection

Afterwards the motion will be same as the first ball which is projected downwards

so here the time difference is given as

$\Delta y = 0 = v_y t + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

$0 = 13.9 t - \frac{1}{2}(9.81) t^2$

$t = 2.83 s$

Part b)

Since the displacement in y direction for two balls is same as well as the the initial speed is also same so final speed is also same for both the balls

so it is given as

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a \Delta y$

$v_f^2 - (13.9)^2 = (2)(-9.81)(-19.1)$

$v_f^2 = 567.9$

$v_f = 23.8 m/s$

Part c)

Relative speed of two balls is given as

$v_{12} = v_1 - v_2$

$v_{12} = (13.9) - (-13.9) = 27.8 m/s$

now the distance between two balls in 0.8 s is given as

$d = v_{12} t$

$d = 27.8 \times 0.8$

$d = 22.24 m$

Which of the following experiments could be used to determine the inertial mass of a block? A. Place the block on a rough horizo

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

D, using a spring scale to exert a force on the block. Measure the acceleration of the block and the applied force

Explanation:

For this you would use the net force equation acceleration=net force * mass however you will want to isolate mass so it would be acceleration/ net force to get mass. Then process of elimination comes to play.
