The law of conservation of energy is:
-- Energy can't be created or destroyed.
-- Energy can't just appear out of nowhere. If you suddenly have
more energy, then the 'extra' energy had to come from somewhere.
-- Energy can't just disappear. If you suddenly have less energy,
then the 'missing' energy had to go somewhere.
________________________________________
There are also conservation laws for mass and electric charge.
They say exactly the same thing. Just write 'mass' or 'charge'
in the sentences up above, in place of the word 'energy'.

And now I can tell you that the conservation laws for energy and mass
are actually one single law ... the conservation of mass/energy. That's
because we discovered about 100 years ago that mass can convert
into energy, and energy can convert into mass, and it's the total of BOTH
of them that gets conserved (can't be created or destroyed).
How much mass makes how much energy ?
The answer is E = m c² .
Answer:
1.67m/s
Explanation:
Total Distance to be travelled by a Runner=100m
Time Taken=10*6s
Speed=Distance/Time
=100/10*6=10/6=1.67m/s
Prompt gamma rays are....
Answer:
Points downward, and its magnitude is 9.8 m/s^2
Explanation:
The motion of a projectile consists of two independent motions:
- A uniform horizontal motion, with constant velocity and zero acceleration. In fact, there are no forces acting on the projectile along the horizontal direction (if we neglect air resistance), so the acceleration along this direction is zero.
- A vertical motion, with constant acceleration g = 9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground (downward), due to the presence of gravity wich "pulls" the projectile downward.
The total acceleration of the projectile is given by the resultant of the horizontal and vertical components of the acceleration. But we said that the horizontal component is zero, therefore the total acceleration corresponds just to its vertical component, therefore it is a vector with magnitude 9.8 m/s^2 which points downward.
