Answer:

There is no experiment to prove that you are in motion

Explanation:

A frame of reference which has constant velocity is known as an inertial frame of reference. Motion is relative. One can detect one's motion only when one observes change in position with respect to a fixed body.

Thus, if you are in a spaceship moving at a constant speed in a straight line and unable to look outside, you would not be able to prove that you are moving. Everything within the spaceship would have same speed. If you will throw any object within the spaceship, then the parameters measured by you would also not show that the spaceship is in motion.

likoan [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The charge on 10μF capacitor =  10 x 12 x 10⁻⁶ = 120 μC

when it is connected with 20μF capacitor both acquires common potential whose value is

= 120 x 10⁻⁶ /( 10 +20) x 10⁻⁶ = 4 V.

Energy stored in 20μF capacitor =1/2 x 20 x 10⁻⁶ x 4 x 4 = 160 x 10⁻⁶ J.

1. Which one lived in Antarctica earlier, the labyrinthodont, the lystrosaurus, or the duck-billed dinosaur? Explain.
Nezavi [6.7K]
The labyrinthodont lived in Antarctica. It is a reptile and extinct amphibians subclass, known as the very first vertebrates to walk on land. In the mountains of Antarctica in the Transantarctic during the austral summer, in 1969-1970 bones of Lower Triassic vertebrates were excavated. It includes the labyrinthodont amphibian.
