In my opinion, the correct answer is the first one, 'the cumulative nature of modern knowledge of physics'. He is trying to say here that it is the overall knowledge of physics and of his predecessors that has helped him become the greatness that he is today.

What accounts for most of the mass in the universe?
aev [14]
Around 80 percent  of the mass of the universe is made up material known as "Dark matter". It does not emit light or energy but the influence of it can be detected or observed gravitationally. Motions of stars and galaxy tell us how much mater there is, but somehow the speed of rotation of galaxy does not add up to its mass alone, there is a certain amount of matter really not accounted for. Dark matter maybe made up of non-baryonic matter, or perhaps what scientist called the WIMPS or (weakly interacting massive particles.)

If the total momentum for a system is the same before and after the collision, we say that momentum is conserved. If momentum we
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

Ratio = 1:1

Explanation:

P_{i} = initial momentum of the system

P_{f} = final momentum of the system

For the momentum to be conserved , final total momentum must be equal to initial total momentum, so we have

P_{f} = P_{i}

Dividing both side by P_{i} , we get

\frac{P_{f}}{P_{i}} = \frac{P_{i}}{P_{i}} \\\frac{P_{f}}{P_{i}} = 1\\

hence

Ratio = 1

A rock falls off a 15 meter cliff. How fast is the rock traveling vertically two seconds later?
oksian1 [2.3K]
The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s².  That means that
an object falling under the influence of gravity will move 9.8 m/s
faster than it was moving a second earlier.

Falling from rest, it will be moving 9.8 m/s after the first second,
and 19.6 m/s after the 2nd second.

The height from which it fell doesn't matter.

Which of the following statements applies to current?
Oduvanchick [21]
The answer is A. it is the flow of electric charge. Current in electric circuits is carried by moving electrons in a wire. The current can also be carried by ions in electrolyte. Ampere is the SI unit for measuring an electric current. The electric current is measured using an equipment called ammeter.
