Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
You're given a position vs. time graph. The the slope of the line is the change in position over time - in other words, the speed.
A positive slope indicates a positive change in position over time and therefore a positive speed. The more positive the slope, the greater the change and the greater the positive speed.
A negative slope indicates a negative change in position over time and therefore a negative speed. The more negative the slop, the greater the change and the greater the negative speed.
A horizontal slope (i.e. slope of 0) indicates no change in position over time. In other words, the speed is 0 and the object is stationary.
With this in mind, you can see the object is initially moving with a positive speed for 3 s (from t=0 to t=3), then is at rest for 3 s (from t=3 to t=6), then is moving at a (higher) positive speed for 4 s (from t=6 to t=10). You can see then that the answer is B.
A is wrong because after being at rest the object moves at a constant speed for only 4 s.
C is wrong because by the time the object gets to 5cm, it has moved at 3 different speeds (first positive slope, horizontal slope, second positive slope).
D is wrong because the object moves from 0 to 3cm in 3 s - a speed of 3cm/3s = 1cm/s.
Actually, iron, cobalt, and nickel ARE all in the same group of elements. If you look on this attachment, you will see iron, nickel, and cobalt are all medals. I circled it for you.
Answer:
Do not see a picture or graph but suspect it would show the golf ball falling faster and striking the ground slightly before the soccer ball.
Probably D: Soccer ball was affected by air resistance more than the golf ball.
Explanation:
Even though heavier, friction loss of the greater surface area soccer ball will counter pull of gravity more than the compact golf ball.
In a vacuum, (no friction) both objects fall at the same rate regardless of mass.
Nuclear physics<span> is the study of the protons and neutrons at the centre of an atom and the interactions that hold them together in a space just a few femtometres (10-15 metres) across. It would be advantageous because we understand how atoms behave. Hope this answers the question.</span>
