Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of mass, it can neither be created or destroyed. It remains constant. It can change to energy. This can be explained using Einstein's mass energy relation. E= mc^2.

So, the changes such as burning cannot be reversed do obey law of conservation of mass. Suppose wood is burnt. The mass of wood converts into energy and ashes.

<span>If a plane has a velocity of 300 km/h and a tailwind of 20 km/h, then the vectors of both forces would add (assuming that the tailwind is blowing exactly at the airplanes back) to a total of 320 km/h. Hope it helps

g In 1956, Frank Lloyd Wright proposed the construction of a mile-high building in Chicago. Suppose the building had been constr

Lorico [155]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to acceleration due to gravity, as well as Newton's second law that describes the weight based on its mass and the acceleration of the celestial body on which it depends.

In other words the acceleration can be described as

$a = \frac{GM}{r^2}$

Where

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius of Earth

This equation can be differentiated with respect to the radius of change, that is

$\frac{da}{dr} = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}$

$da = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr$

At the same time since Newton's second law we know that:

$F_w = ma$

Where,

m = mass

a =Acceleration

From the previous value given for acceleration we have to

$F_W = m (\frac{GM}{r^2} ) = 600N$

Finally to find the change in weight it is necessary to differentiate the Force with respect to the acceleration, then:

$dF_W = mda$

$dF_W = m(-2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr)$

$dF_W = -2(m\frac{GM}{r^2})(\frac{dr}{r})$

$dF_W = -2F_W(\frac{dr}{r})$

But we know that the total weight (F_W) is equivalent to 600N, and that the change during each mile in kilometers is 1.6km or 1600m therefore:

$dF_W = -2(600)(\frac{1.6*10^3}{6.37*10^6})$

$dF_W = -0.3N$

Therefore there is a weight loss of 0.3N every kilometer.

Objects that are denser than water will sink in water. Question 1 options: True False

den301095 [7]

<h3>Answer: True</h3>

For example, a very dense metal will sink to the bottom while something like wood will float on the surface. The wood is less dense compared to the water, which is why it floats. Density is the measure of how much stuff you can pack in a certain volume. The higher the density, the more stuff per volume. Think of it like packing a suitcase. If there's barely anything in there, then we can say its density is low. The more stuff crammed in the suitcase will increase the density (and therefore the weight), while keeping the volume the same.

Which statement best describes the difference between acceleration and deceleration?

natima [27]

Acceleration is the rate at which an object picks up speed. deceleration is the rate at which an object loses speed.
