When I designed my vessel I knew inertia would cause the egg to continue to want to fall. I also knew that it would not accelerate at a great speed so I had to create a vessel that would contract and adjust easily. That's why I used a sponge and cotton to soften the impact of the egg. Then I simply held it together with a rubber band. With this construction I was able to build a vessel that safely carried my egg.

The stored energy in this contraption seemed to lie at the sponge. Were when I picked it up and threw it, I knew that the sponge was more dense then the egg so there was a lot of potential energy waiting to squash the sponge. Of course there was a lot of kinetic energy as I threw it into the air so I didn't throw it to high into the air otherwise the vessels acceleration falling down would have been a higher speed, resulting into a possible catastrophic event. So the mechanical energy was evenly distributed. I used Newton's first law of motion, inertia, to create a vessel that would save the egg from destruction due to inertia.

We use potential and kinetic knowledge to determine whether a car could drive up a hill or how fast a ball would roll down my driveway. Both of these ways represent physics and how we use this to solve equations. All though these questions probably don't get asked by kids. It's important to know that when designing contraptions like cars or even swimming flippers, you need to know how much kinetic or potential energy will be available.

Mid-ocean ridges happen along divergent plate boundaries, where new ocean floor is created as the Earth’s tectonic plates spread apart. As the plates separate, molten rock rises to the seafloor, producing large volcanic eruptions of basalt.

Of the three forces acting on the rock as it slides down the bowl, which (if any) are constant and which are not? explain.
choli [55]

Answer

Hi,

The forces are; weight (gravity), Normal/centripetal force and friction. Force due to gravity is constant where as friction and centripetal are not.

Explanation

Weight is constant, given by the force of gravity on the object. The centripetal force is a function of the angles occurring between the velocity vector and the weight vector that is at right angle with the perpendicular line drawn from the surface. Friction is a function of the centripetal force thus it also varies.

Hope this helps!

What is the time lapse between seeing a lightning strike and hearing the thunder if the lightning flash is 47 km away? The speed
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

141.14098 secs

Explanation:

Time taken to see the lightning flash can be gotten from:

Velocity = distance/time

Time = distance/velocity

Time = (47 * 1000)/(3 * 10^8)

Time = 0.0001567 secs

Time taken to hear the thunder can be gotten from:

Velocity = distance/time

Time = distance/velocity

Time = (47 * 1000)/(333)

Time = 141.14114 secs

The time lapse between the lightning flash and the thunder will be:

141.14114 - 0. 0001567

= 141.14098 secs

Does parallax affect the precision of a measurement that you make
Paul [167]
Yes, parallax affects the precision of a measurement that you make. It introduces an error in the order of the parallax. It will cause the measurement to be different from the real answer. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A distance of 0.002 m separates two objects of equal mass. If the gravitational force between them is
Alika [10]

Answer: 24.97 kg

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects of masses M1, and M2 respectively, and separated by a distance R, is:

F = G*(M1*M2)/R^2

Where G is the gravitational constant:

G = 6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)

In this case, we know that

R = 0.002m

F = 0.0104 N

and that M1 = M2 = M

And we want to find the value of M, then we can replace those values in the equation to get

0.0104 N = (6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2))*(M*M)/(0.002m)^2

(0.0104 N)*(0.002m)^2/(6.67*10^-11 m^3/(kg*s^2)) = M^2

623.69 kg^2 = M^2

√(623.69 kg^2) = M = 24.97 kg

This means that the mass of each object is 24.97 kg
