Instantaneous velocity, on the other hand, describes the motion of a body at one particular moment in time. Acceleration is a vector which shows the direction and magnitude of changes in velocity. Its standard units are meters per second per second, or meters per second squared. (this is for number 3)
Answer:
B. Developed out of efforts of man trying to explain our physical environment.
Explanation:
This is because physics, as we all know of, is considered to be <em>crucial to understanding the world around us</em>, making it the most basic and fundamental of science.
Answer:
Your pinball machine was built using two kinds of simple machines: a lever and an inclined plane. The lever shot the marble to the top of the box with lots of force. The inclined planes made the marble wind its way down to the bottom.
When the capacitor is connected to the voltage, a charge Q is stored on its plates. Calling 
the capacitance of the capacitor in air, the charge Q, the capacitance and the voltage (
) are related by
(1)
when the source is disconnected the charge Q remains on the capacitor.
When the space between the plates is filled with mica, the capacitance of the capacitor increases by a factor 5.4 (the permittivity of the mica compared to that of the air):
this is the new capacitance. Since the charge Q on the plates remains the same, by using eq. (1) we can find the new voltage across the capacitor:
And since 
, substituting into the previous equation, we find:
