Imagine you were able to throw a ball in a frictionless environment
such as outer space. Once you let go of the ball, it will travel forever
in a straight line, and at a constant speed. (At least until it bumps into
something.)
A car accelerates down the road. The reaction to the tires pushing
on the road is the road pushing on the tires.
Answer: The amount of movement of the particles depends on the amount of <u>force</u> acting on them and their relationship to other atoms.
Explanation:
The inter-atomic force determines the inter-atomic distance which governs the amount of movement of the particles.
For example in solids, the inter-atomic force is stronger and hence, the distance between any atoms is very very small which restricts the movement of the particles. On the other hand, in case of liquids and gases, the inter-atomic forces are not very strong and there is more distance between the atoms which allows free movement of particles.
Average acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)
In this case . . .
Average acceleration = (speed at the end - speed at the beginning)/10sec.
We can't be any more specific without knowing the difference
between the beginning speed and the ending speed.
Answer: Scattering reflection
Sunlight reaches earth's atmosphere and is scattered in all directions by all the gasses and particles in the air. Blue light is seen more than others because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
Explanation:
<span>Commutator
is the moving part of the electric motor and periodically reverses the current
direction between the rotor and the external circuit.One end of the coil is
attached to each half of the commutator.
Commutator are used so when electricity flows through the circuit, the
coil will rotate continually in the same direction.</span>
