Mass is the measure of mutual gravitational pull to other bodies, or a fundamental property of an object. Weight is the measure of force on an object due to gravity.

Mass= is how big something is.
Weight= is how heavy something is.
They are different things because weight is talking about heavy... not how big it is.

According to the diagram of the electromagnetic spectrum shown, what would best represent the
iren2701 [21]

The  best represent the size of visible light will be C. Protozoa

The electromagnetic spectrum, gives the overall distribution of electromagnetic radiation by the  frequency or wavelength. All EM waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum, but over a wide range of frequencies, wavelengths, and photon energies.

Visible light wavelengths cover the range of approximately 0.4 to 0.7 μm. electromagnetic spectrum that the human eye can see is the Visible light. Visible light is a form of electromagnetic (EM) radiation, along with radio waves, infrared, ultraviolet, X-rays, and microwaves. the wavelengths that are visible to most human eyes is generally known as Visible light

the best represent the size of visible light is Protozoa, According to the diagram of the electromagnetic spectrum shown,

Help with this question plz and show how you got it :) tysm!
spayn [35]
The hardest part of the job is to find the right formula to use, and write it down. You've already done that ! The rest is just turning the crank until an answer falls out.

You wrote. E = m g h.
Beautiful.
Now divide each side by (g h), and you'll have the formula for mass:

m = E / (g h).

You know all the numbers on the right side. Just pluggum in, do the arithmetic, and you'll have the mass.

Which of the following statements is accurate?
Volgvan

Answer: B. If an object's velocity is changing,it's either experiencing acceleration or deceleration.


Acceleration is defined as the rate at which an object changes its velocity. This implies that if an object is changing it's velocity it is experiencing acceleration/ deceleration.

Acceleration is a vector quantity that has both a magnitude and time.

It is represented as

Acceleration= change in velocity/time.

The SI unit for acceleration is m/s^2

Which of these statements is correct about Newton's first law of motion?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Answer D: It describes the relationship between motion and force.

Explanation:

The answer is D because a law is something that describes something in nature, but does not try to explain how or why is occurs (that is a theory). Options B and C sound more like theories, while option A sounds like a definition. Option D is correct because a law describes without explaining.
