Answer:
Democritus
Explanation:
He called these "uncuttable" pieces atomos. This is where the modern term atom comes from. Democritus first introduced the idea of the atom almost 2500 years ago.
Answer:
Explanation:
Let assume begins movement at zero point, that is, height is equal to zero. The block has an initial linear kinetic energy and no gravitational potential energy and end with no linear kinetic energy, some gravitational potential energy and work losses due to slide friction. In mathematical terms, this system can be model as follows:

Where
are linear kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy and work, respectively.
Answer:
models are only used by scientists
In fact, entropy of an isolated system never decreases (2nd law of thermodynamics), unless some external energy is provided in order to "restore" order in the system and decrease its entropy.
(note that when external energy is added to the system, it is no longer "isolated").
*This is only true if the question is referring to a certain system within the universe. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, then this option is no longer correct, because no external energy can be provided to the universe, and since the universe is an isolated system, its entropy can never decrease. If we are considering the universe itself as the system, none of the options is true.
Hi there!
A.
Since the can was launched from ground level, we know that its trajectory forms a symmetrical, parabolic shape. In other words, the time taken for the can to reach the top is the same as the time it takes to fall down.
Thus, the time to its highest point:

Now, we can determine the velocity at which the can was launched at using the following equation:

In this instance, we are going to look at the VERTICAL component of the velocity, since at the top of the trajectory, the vertical velocity = 0 m/s.
Therefore:

***vsinθ is the vertical component of the velocity.
Solve for 'v':

Now, recall that:

Plug in the expression for velocity:

B.
We can use the same process as above, where T' = 2T and Th = T.

C.
The work done in part B is 4 times greater than the work done in part A.
