Answer: C. The sun and planets formed from a collapsing spinning cloud of gas and dust.

Explanation:

The entire solar system was formed from solar nebula. A nebula is a cloud of dust and gases. When this cloud spins and contracts, a protostar is formed. The temperature rises and nuclear fusion kicks in forming a star. The rest of the matter forms planets and other celestial bodies of the star system. Similarly, the Sun was formed in solar nebula from collapsing of spinning cloud of dust and gas.

You're right, Answer C

The dust and gas accumulate to form a solar nebula, which later on creates the star and the planets.

An empty 2,500 kg train car is headed northbound at a velocity of 5 m/s. Ahead of the first car, an empty 1,500 kg car is headed

Tema [17]

Let the mass of 2500 kg car be $m_1$ and it's velocity be $v_1$ and the mass of 1500 kg car be $m_2$ and it's velocity be $v_2$ .

After the bumping the mass be M and it's velocity be V.

By law of conservation of momentum we have

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = MV$

2500 * 5 + 1500 * 1=4000 * V

V = 14000/4000 = 7/2 = 3.5 m/s

So the velocity of the two-car train = 3.5 m/s

Does it take more force to slow something down than to speed it up.

ANTONII [103]

To bring something to a stop the same force that was applied to speed it up can be used to stop it. If a greater force is used it will stop quicker.

How much energy (in Joules) is released when 12.0 g of water cools from 20.0 °C to 11.0 °C? This is a grade 10 question from the

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: - 452.088joule

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of water = 12g

Change in temperature(Dt) = (11 - 20)°C = - 9°C

Specific heats capacity of water(c) = 4.186j/g°C

Q = mcDt

Where Q = quantity of heat

Q = 12g × 4.186j/g°C × - 9°C

Q = - 452.088joule
