The absence of external force in the outer space, allows the piece of rock to continue moving at the same velocity for thousands of years.
<h3>Absence of external force on the outer space</h3>
The outer space is almost an absolute vacuum, because it's nearly empty. There is no matter such as air in the outer space that will provide an external force needed to change the velocity of the piece of rock.
From Newton's first law of motion, an object in a state of rest or uniform motion in a straight line, will continue in that state unless it is acted upon by an external force.
Thus, the absence of external force in the outer space, allows the piece of rock to continue moving at the same velocity for thousands of years.

Answer:
r = 20 m
Explanation:
The formula for the angular momentum of a rotating body is given as:
L = mvr
where,
L = Angular Momentum = 10000 kgm²/s
m = mass
v = speed = 2 m/s
r = radius of merry-go-round
Therefore,
10000 kg.m²/s = mr(2 m/s)
m r = (10000 kg.m²/s)/(2 m/s)
m r = 5000 kg.m ------------- equation 1
Now, the moment of inertia of a solid uniform disc about its axis through its center is given as:
I = (1/2) m r²
where,
I = moment of inertia = 50000 kg.m²
Therefore,
50000 kg.m² = (1/2)(m r)(r)
using equation 1, we get:
50000 kg.m² = (1/2)(5000 kg.m)(r)
(50000 kg.m²)/(2500 kg.m) = r
<u>r = 20 m</u>
If bonds are broken, the energy is released, and if bonds are formed, energy is absorbed. During conversions from chemical energy to thermal energy, the energy stored in the chemical bonds are released and this energy causes surrounding molecules to move faster thus increasing the thermal energy of a substance.
Answer:
Weight
Explanation:
The spring balance is used to measure weight of an object.
