Answer: Weight only.

Explanation: Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on the material in a gravitational field. Mass and weight are proportional to each other, with the acceleration due to gravity as the proportionality constant.

If a rock is transported from the moon to the earth, the mass is constant for the object but the weight will depends on the locations of the object. The gravitational acceleration would change because the radius and mass of the Moon is different from the Earth.

Thus, the object (rock) has <em>mass, m</em> both on the surface of the Earth and the surface of the Moon; but it will <em>weight</em> much less on the surface of the Moon as the Moon's surface gravity is 1/6 of the Earth.

Describe the principle of conversation of energy:
exis [7]

Answer: Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, rather it is converted from one form to another

Explanation:

The principle of conversation of energy explains how energy is conserved in nature by being converted from one form to another such that no energy is created nor destroyed.

Practical examples include:

- electrical pressing iron that converts electrical energy to heat energy

- solar panels that converts solar energy to electrical energy

- Car batteries that converts chemical energy to light energy etc

Andreyy89

Answer:

Following are the responses to this question:

Explanation:

The small current passes thru the capacitor of the strain gauge and the current is generated throughout the resistor. For the very first time,  in contrast to what we calculate, its resistance of the multimeter is quite high and therefore the small stream flowing through the bulb would have very little impact on the measure. Thus, as the current flows through the flashbulb, this same calculation is of excellent price, its material is heated and resistance varies with increase. Therefore, when the bulb will be on, sensitivity is greater.
