<h2>Answer: The Systeme international (International System of Units)</h2>

The International System of Units (SI) is used in almost every country in the world (<em>except Burma, Liberia and the United States</em>).

This system was created in 1960 by the 11th General Conference of Weights and Measures in France and is made up of seven basic units:  

-Ampere (electric current)

-Kelvin (temperature)

-Second (time)

-Meter (length)

-Kilogram (mass)

-Candela (luminous intensity)

-Mol (amount of substance) *added to the system in 1971

Plus an unlimited number of derived units from the main ones.

Acceleration = ( final velocity - intial velocity ) / time

= (60-0)m/s / 3s
= 20 m/s2

If a small sports car collides head-on with a massive truck, which vehicle experiences the greater impact force? Which vehicle e
garri49 [273]

Answer:

Small sports car.

Explanation:

Lets take

mass of the small car = m

mass of the truck = M

As we know that when car collide with the massive truck then due to change in the moment of the car both car as well as truck will feel force.We also know that from Third law of Newton's ,it states that every action have it reaction with same magnitude but in the opposite direction.

Therefore

F = m a

a=Acceleration of the car

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

F= M a'

a'=Acceleration of the massive truck

a'=\dfrac{F}{M}

Here given that M > m that is why a > a'

Therefore car will experiences more acceleration.

How does adding more of a substance affect it's density?
fomenos
I’m going to use molasses as an example of a substance.

The mass and volume both change when changing the amount of molasses.
However, the density does not change. This is because the mass and volume increase at the same rate/proportion!

Even though there is more molasses (mass) in test tube A, the molasses also takes up more space (volume). Therefore, the spacing between those tiny particles that make up the molasses is constant (does not change).

The size or amount of a material/substance does not affect its density.
