An ELEMENT is a pure substance that can not be broken down into simpler substances by chemical or physical means. 
An element is homogeneous in nature, that is, it is made up of only one type of matter all through. There are different types of elements, some are gases, some are solids while some are liquids. Example of elements are: gold, silver, iron, sodium, calcium, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, etc.<span />

A ball thrown straight up climbs for 3.0 sec before falling. Neglecting air resistance, with what velocity was the ball thrown?
sesenic [268]

Answer:

Speed, u = 29.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that, A ball thrown straight up climbs for 3.0 sec before falling, t = 3 s

Let u is speed with which the ball is thrown up. When the ball falls, v = 0

Using first equation of motion as :

v = u + at

Here, a = -g

So, u = g × t

u=9.8\times 3

u = 29.4 m/s

So, the speed with which the ball was thrown is 29.4 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

A metal block has a density of 5000 kg per cubic meter and a mass of 15,000 kg. What is its volume?
Naily [24]

Taking into account the definition of density, the volume of the metal block is 3 m³.

<h3>What is density</h3>

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space.

In other words, density is a quantity that allows us to measure the amount of mass in a certain volume of a substance.

Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

From this expression it can be deduced that density is inversely proportional to volume: the smaller the volume occupied by a given mass, the higher the density.

<h3>Volume of the metal block</h3>

In this case, you know that:

  • Density= 5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }
  • Mass= 15000 kg
  • Volume= ?

Replacing in the definition of density:

5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} } =\frac{15000 kg}{volume}

Solving:

volume×5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }= 15000 kg

volume= \frac{15000 kg}{5000 \frac{kg}{m^{3} }}

<u><em>volume= 3 m³</em></u>

In summary, the volume of the metal block is 3 m³.

True or false the refraction of a wave is how many wavelengths pass a fixed point each second
Ksenya-84 [330]
False. That description fits the wave's 'frequency'. 
It has nothing to do with refraction.
