Which tool would a scientist use to find the mass of an object?

Physics

Luda [366]2 years ago

The common method would be to use Balance, If you think about it, on other planets, the balance weights change by the same factor as the object you are measuring. Your mass measured with a balance would be the same on the moon as it is on Earth. Weight is a measuring of gravity's effect on something. Mass is another story, it's the amount of matter in an object. Move to another planet and its object's weight will change, however, its mass will remain the same.

An electron is released from rest at the negative plate of a parallel plate capacitor and accelerates to the positive plate (see
siniylev [52]

Answer:

3.88 * 10^(-15) J

Explanation:

We know that the Potential energy of the electron at the beginning of its motion is equal to the Kinetic energy at the end of its motion, when it reaches the plates.

First, we get the potential and potential energy:

Electric potential = E * r

E = electric field

r = distance between plates

Potential = 2.2 * 10^6 * 0.011

= 2.42 * 10^4 V

The relationship between electric potential and potential energy is:

P. E. = q*V

q = charge of electron = 1.602 * 10^(-19) C

P. E. = 2.42 * 10^4 * 1.602 * 10^(-19)

P. E. = 3.88 * 10^(-15) J

How would you respond to a person who argued that the Big Bang theory is incorrect because it is only a theory and theories have
Umnica [9.8K]

Well, you would reply that that's not what theories are. Theories explain the how and the why, laws explain the what. So, the Big Bang theory isn't "just a theory". It's a theory, it explains the how. (Also, if someone tells you it's anti-God or whatever, tell them the thoery was created by a Catholic scientist. True fact.) I hoped this helped!!! (You don't have the include who created the theory if this is for homework.)

Planet X is in a stable circular orbit around a star, as shown in the figure. Which of the following graphs best predicts the an
damaskus [11]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Angular momentum is the product of moment of inertia and angular velocity.

L = I × ω

Since the planet follows a stable circular orbit, I and ω are constant and non-zero.  Therefore, the angular momentum is constant and non-zero.
