Now let’s say you’re on the Moon. If you were to drop a hammer and a feather from the same height, which would hit the ground first?
Trick Question! On the moon both objects would hit the ground at the same time. On Earth, the hammer lands first.
So yeah, the student is right. Galileo gave us this theory long ago.
Answer:
The correct answer is the third option: The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.
Explanation:
Temperature is, in depth, a statistical value; kind of an average of the particles movement in any physical system (such as a glass filled with water). Kinetic energy, for sure, is the energy resulting from movement (technically depending on mass and velocity of a system; in other words, the faster something moves, the greater its kinetic energy.
Since temperature is related to the total average random movement in a system, and so is the kinetic energy (related to movement through velocity), as the thermometer measures <u>less temperature</u>, that would mean that the particles (in this case: water particles) are <u>moving slowly</u>, so that: the slower something moves, the lower its kinetic energy.
<u>In summary:</u> temperature tells about how fast are moving and colliding the particles within a system, and since it is <em>directly proportional</em> to the amount of movement, it can be related (also <em>directly proportional</em>) to the kinectic energy.
Answer:
Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m
Explanation:
given,
cross sectional area = 1.6 m²
Mass of column = 26600 Kg
Elastic modulus, E = 5 x 10¹⁰ N/m²
height = 7.9 m
Weight of the column = 26600 x 9.8
= 260680 N
we know,
Young's modulus=
stress = 
= 
= 162925
strain = 
now,



Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m
The column is shortened by Δ L = 2.57 x 10⁻⁵ m
Answer:
5 meters per second
Explanation:
5m is the distance
5m west is the vector
5m per second is the velocity
5m per second west is unknown
