Mass : measures the amount of MATTER a substance is made up of

Weight : measures the PULL OF GRAVITY on a substance

How are mass and weight different ? Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter in a substance, while weight is a measure of gravity's effect on that mass.

How does mass affect weight ? As your body grows, you will have more mass, which also means you will weigh more. That’s because when you’re on the earth, the amount of gravity that pulls on you stays the same.

So when your mass changes, so does your weight!

Hope this helps :)

Come si esprime il numero 0,00123 in notazione scientifica?
Inessa [10]

Answer:

0,00123 = 1,2*10^{-3}

Explanation:

To write down correctly the number 0,00123 in scientific notation, you take into account that the scientific notation demands that there in only one number after the comma ( , ). Furthermore, it is necessary that you move the comma to the right of the first number different of zero, in this case the number 1. To do this you move the comma three positions.

Then, you have to multiply the expresion 1.23 by 10 with an exponential -3 (because of the movement of the comma in three positions). That is:

0,00123 = 1,23*10^{-3}

But it is mandatory that nly one number can stay after the comma, so, you approximate the number three. In this case, the number is lower than 5, hence, you approximate 3 to 0.

Finally, you have:

0,00123 = 1,2*10^{-3}

4. Describe how the velocity of an object changes if it undergoes uniformly acceleration motion. Can its direction change?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

n the case of linear motion, the change occurs in the magnitude of the velocity, the direction remaining constant.

In the case of circular motion, the magnitude of the velocity remains constant, the change in its direction occurring.

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector therefore it has magnitude and direction, a change in either of the two is the consequence of an acceleration on the system.

In the case of linear motion, the change occurs in the magnitude of the velocity, the direction remaining constant.

              a_{t} = (v₂-v₁)/Δt

In the case of circular motion, the magnitude of the velocity remains constant, the change in its direction occurring.

                    a_{c} = v2/R

In the general case, both the module and the address change

             a = Ra (  a_{t}^2 +   a_{c}^2)

How To Get To The Center OF The Moon And Time Travel ?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

To get to the moon you need to travel in a spacecraft and will take approximately 10 hours of travel.

Explanation:

Since the first spaceship to land on the moon in 1959 , several trips have been made so far.The NASA trip in 2006 opened more routes to the moon and achieved a time travel of 8 hours compared to the first one done in 1959 that was 34 hours of time travel.Currently, NASA has intiated programs that will see robots sent to the moon for research.

Hope this helps!
