Answer:

With science, even if they have the same mass doesn't mean it will have the same weight.

Explanation:

Sometimes gravity does different things like sinks objects that are the same mass as others. I took Bio last year and learned that not everything with the same mass has the same balance.

A car travels from point A to point B, moving in the same direction but with a non-constant speed. The first half of the distanc
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

From A to B

distance traveled with velocity v_1  in time t_1

\frac{d}{2}=v_1t_1----1

from B to C

distance traveled is 0.5 d with v_2  and v_3  velocity for half-half time

\frac{d}{2}=\frac{v_2t_2}{2}+\frac{v_3t_3}{2}----2

divide 1 and 2 we get

\frac{1}{1}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{v_2t_2+v_3t_3}

\frac{t_1}{t_2}=\frac{v_2+v_3}{2v_1}

Now average velocity is given by

v_{avg}=\frac{d}{t_1+t_2}

taking t_1  common

v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{t_1(1+\frac{t_2}{t_1})}

v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1}{1+\frac{2v_1}{v_2+v_3}}

v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1(v_2+v_3)}{2v_1+v_2+v_3}

Derek designed an experiment to demonstrate interactions between Earth systems. He cleared a patch of land in his backyard and p
vesna_86 [32]

Derek's experiment best demonstrates the effects of gravity, that force made the water go down and  hit the ground, the effect of that was a depression.

The definition of Hydrosphere is all the water of earth surface, so the water represents Hydrosphere.

The definition of Geosphere is the surface of Earth, when the water fell down and touched the ground it caused an interaction between Hydrosphere and Geosphere.

Suppose you calculated the speed of light in an unknown substance to be 4.00x10^8 m/s. How could you tell if you made an error i
Mice21 [21]

Answer: You could tell if you made an error in your calculations by repeating the steps.

Speed of light is the fastest/maximum in vacuum which is equal to 3 × 10^8 m/s, therefore speed of light through any material equal to 4 × 10^8 m/s is physically and theoretically impossible and therefore incorrect.

Differentiate between moments and momentum​
marshall27 [118]

Answer: Momentum applies to objects in motion and is the product of mass and velocity. It is not the energy, but the variables are the same. By contrast, "moment" is an expression of the "rotational force" caused by a force acting at some distance from a fulcrum.
