Many devices have been invented to accurately measure temperature. It all started with the establishment of a temperature scale. This scale transformed the measurement of temperature into meaningful numbers.
In the early years of the eighteenth century, Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736) created the Fahrenheit scale. He set the freezing point of water at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees. These two points formed the anchors for his scale.
Later in that century, around 1743, Anders Celsius (1701-1744) invented the Celsius scale. Using the same anchor points, he determined the freezing temperature for water to be 0 degree and the boiling temperature 100 degrees. The Celsius scale is known as a Universal System Unit. It is used throughout science and in most countries.
There is a limit to how cold something can be. The Kelvin scale is designed to go to zero at this minimum temperature. The relationships between the different temperature scales are:
oK = 273.15 + oC oC = (5/9)*(oF-32) oF = (9/5)*oC+32
oF oC oK
Water boils 212 100 373
Room Temperature 72 23 296
Water Freezes 32 0 273
Absolute Zero -460 -273 0
At a temperature of Absolute Zero there is no motion and no heat. Absolute zero is where all atomic and molecular motion stops and is the lowest temperature possible. Absolute Zero occurs at 0 degrees Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius or at -460 degrees Fahrenheit. All objects emit thermal energy or heat unless they have a temperature of absolute zero.
If we want to understand what temperature means on the molecular level, we should remember that temperature is the average energy of the molecules that composes a substance. The atoms and molecules in a substance do not always travel at the same speed. This means that there is a range of energy (the energy of motion) among the molecules. In a gas, for example, the molecules are traveling in random directions at a variety of speeds - some are fast and some are slow. Sometimes these molecules collide with each other. When this happens the higher speed molecule transfers some of its energy to the slower molecule causing the slower molecule to speed up and the faster molecule to slow down. If more energy is put into the system, the average speed of the molecules will increase and more thermal energy or heat will be produced. So, higher temperatures mean a substance has higher average molecular motion. We do not feel or detect a bunch of different temperatures for each molecule which has a different speed. What we measure as the temperature is always related to the average speed of the molecules in a system
The the object that has the less mass will travel faster because let’s say for example the first object has the mass of M and the second object has the mass of 2M and if the momentum is equal so that means that we could divide M with M and we would get V1=2V2 (being V1 the velocity of the first mass and V2 the velocity of the second one) I hope I helped you out.

Answer:t=0.3253 s
Explanation:
Given
speed of balloon is 
speed of camera 
Initial separation between camera and balloon is 
Suppose after t sec of throw camera reach balloon then,
distance travel by balloon is
and distance travel by camera to reach balloon is
Now
There are two times when camera reaches the same level as balloon and the smaller time is associated with with the first one .
(b)When passenger catches the camera time is 
velocity is given by
and position of camera is same as of balloon so
Position is 
The new gravitational attraction will be 1/4 as much
Explanation:
The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects is given by
where
is the gravitational constant
m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between them
In this problem, the original force between the two objects is F, when they are separated by a distance r.
Later, the distance between the two objects is doubled, so the new distance is
Therefore, the new force will be
Therefore, the new force will be one-fourth as much.
