Answer:
Kinetic energy and potential energy.
The term 'mechanical energy' refers to the sum of the kinetic energy and the gravitational potential energy of an object,
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) The force of gravity is called an attractive force because it is the force (although weak) in which a planetary body or matter uses to attract an object towards itself.
(b) Yes, it does and the formula for force of gravity between any two object is
F = G
where m1 and m2 are masses of the first and second object respectively
r is the distance between the center of the two masses
G is the gravitational constant
Answer:
An object changes position if it moves relative to a reference point. The change in position is determined by the distance and direction of an object's change in position from the starting point (displacement). Direction • Direction is the line, or path along which something is moving, pointing, or aiming.
Explanation:
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>To relate the type of box material to the warmth inside the box
</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
3 boxes are made with three different materials glass, plastic and Aluminium. Thermal conductivity is different for different materials. thermal conductors allow easy flow of heat through them and insulators allow minimal or no flow of heat through them.
Thus the amount by which an object gets heated up depends on the value of its conductivity. In this experiment, glass and plastic are insulators and aluminium is a conductor. Among glass and plastic, plastic is a better insulator.
<em>Thus the heat contained in the boxes will be of the order </em>Aluminium>glass>plastic.
