The density of the nickel was greater than that of the quarter and penny, thus, the results supports the hypothesis.
<h3>What is density of substance?</h3>
The density of a substance is a measure of how tightly-packed the particles of the substance are.
Density is calculated as the ratio of the mass of the substance and the volume of the substance.
The hypothesis of the lab to compare the densities of a penny, a nickel, and a quarter is:
- If the nickel has a greater density than the quarter and penny, then it will have a greater mass to volume ratio. If the nickel has a lower density than the quarter and penny, then it will have a lower mass-to-volume ratio.
The average mass and the average volume of a penny, a nickel, and a quarter are then used to determine the density of each coin.
Based on obtained results, it would be found that the density of the nickel was greater than that of the quarter and penny. Therefore, the results supports the hypothesis.
In conclusion, the density of a substance depends on the mass and the volume.

Answer:
Friction, normal force, and weight
Explanation:
If the book slows down, it means that there must be friction acting in the opposite direction of the direction the book is moving in.
Weight is caused by the gravitational pull of the Earth on the book, and normal force is the table pushing the book up because the book is pushing down on the table (3rd law.)
Note that weight and normal force is not the 3rd law action-reaction pair. The pair is the force of the book on the table and the force of the table on the book.
ಠ_ಠ Hey, hang on.. you might've made a discovery. Nobody has tested it so how do we know? ಠ_ಠ
First, you find the velocity at each component. The general equation is:
a = (v2 - v1)/t
a,x = (v2,x - v1,x)/t
-0.105 = (v2,x - 8.57)/6.67
v2,x = 7.87 m/s
a,y = (v2,y - v1,y)/t
0.101 = (v2,y - -2.61)/6.67
v2,y = -1.94 m/s
To find the final speed, find the resultant velocity by taking the hypotenuse.
v^2 = (v2,x)^2 + (v2,y)^2
v^2 = (7.87)^2 + (-1.94)^2
v = 8.1 m/s
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Force = (18 kg) x (3 m/s²) = 54 newtons
As long as you continue pushing the cart with 54 newtons of force,
it will accelerate at 3 m/s².
At the instant you release it, or keep your hands on it but stop pushing,
it will stop accelerating. It'll continue forward at the speed it had when
the 54 newtons of force stopped.
