Answer:

Acceleration is equal to the displacement of an object divided by the time the object takes to complete the path

Explanation:

In other words, you can say that acceleration is the increase in the rate or speed of something.

Note: acceleration can also be negative, which means that instead of increasing, decrease in the rate or speed will happen. Such an acceleration is called deceleration.

I hope it helped! Good luck!!

25 POINTS ------------------ (usatestprep)
Airida [17]

Answer:

D) The heavier ball will have a higher temperature because the change of temperature is inversely proportional to mass.

Explanation:

As stated in the problem, the amount of heat released by each ball is

Q=mC_p \Delta T

where

m is the mass of the ball

Cp is the specific heat of iron (so, it is equal for both balls)

\Delta T is the change in temperature of each ball

In this problem, we are said that the amount of heat released by the two balls, Q, is the same. Cp is also the same: this means that the product m\Delta T must be the same for the two balls. So, the mass and the change in temperature are inversely proportional: therefore, the heavier ball will have a smaller change in temperature. And since both balls starts from the same temperature, 100 C, this means that the heavier ball will reach a higher temperature than the lighter ball.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS ONE QUESTION
adoni [48]

Answer:

B) R1 = 6 V and R2 = 6V

Explanation:

In series, both resistors will carry the same current.

that current will be I = V/R = 12 / (10 + 10) = 0.6 A

The voltage drop across each resistor is V = IR = 0.6(10) = 6 V

Two competing models attempt to explain the motions and changing brightness of the planets: Ptolemy's geocentric model and Coper
AlekseyPX

Answer:

A. Geocentric: This model is Earth Centered . Retrograde motion is explained by epicycles .

B. Heliocentric: This model is Sun centered.  Retrograde motion is explained by the orbital speeds of planets

C. Both geocentric and heliocentric: Epicycles and deferents help explain planetary motion . Planets move in circular orbits and with uniform motion . The brightness of a planet increases when the planet is closest to Earth.

Explanation:

The principle of the Ptolemy's geocentric model was developed on the assumption that the center of the universe is the Earth. On the other hand, the principle of the Copernicus' heliocentric model was based on the assumption that the center of the universe is the sun. However, both models have a common ideology on uniform circular motion and epicycles.
