Answer:

Yes, the rocks are made of matter

Explanation:

Let's remember the definition of matter.

Matter is all that has mass and occupies a place in space. Therefore, if we measure the mass of each rock we will know its mass, the other fact is that rocks like any particular body are occupying a place in an empty space.

The opposite of this is antimatter and can its extent be given by the quantum mechanics.

Answer:

A rock is any naturally occurring solid mass or aggregate of minerals or mineraloid matter. It is categorized by the minerals included, its chemical composition and the way in which it is formed. Rocks are usually grouped into three main groups: igneous rocks, metamorphic rocks and sedimentary rocks.

Juan rides his horse with a constant<br> speed of 18 km/h. How far can he travel<br> in 1/2 hour?

Brut [27]

Answer:

He traveled 9km

Explanation:

To do this problem you need to use the equation which is Speed= distance/time and this problem gives you the speed which is 18 km/h and it gives you the time 1/2 hour so you write the equation 18= d/ 1/2 which his distance is 9km

The period of rotation of Mars is 1 day and 37 minutes. Determine its frequency of rotation in Hertz.

Sholpan [36]

The frequency of rotation of Mars is 0.0000113 Hertz.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Period = 1 day and 37 minutes.

To find the frequency of rotation in Hertz:

First of all, we would convert the the value of period in days and minutes to seconds because the period of oscillation of a physical object is measured in seconds.

<u>Conversion:</u>

1 day = 24 hours

24 hours to minutes = $60$ × $24$ = $1440$ minutes

$1440 + 37 = 1477 \; minutes$

1 minute = 60 seconds

1477 minute = X seconds

Cross-multiplying, we have:

$X = 60$ × $1477$

X = 88620 seconds

Now, we can find the frequency of rotation of Mars by using the formula:

$Frequency = \frac{1}{Period}\\\\Frequency = \frac{1}{88620}$

<em>Frequency </em><em>of rotation</em> = <em>0.0000113 Hertz</em>

Therefore, the frequency of rotation of Mars is 0.0000113 Hertz.

Write a hypothesis about the use of an object’s physical characteristics to determine its density. Use the format "if . . . then

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

∧·······∵·······∴·······Hello :D········∴·······∵·······∧

How is Mass or volume change affect density?: Density is an intensive property of the material or substance and depends upon the relationship between the mass and volume. Unless the mass changes in relation to the volume, the density will not change.

Are mass and volume related?: Mass and volume are two units used to measure objects. Mass is the amount of matter an object contains, while volume is how much space it takes up.We can say that the volume of the object is directly proportional to its mass. As the volume increases the mass of the object increases in direct proportion.

How can density of an object be determined?: If the mass of an object increases then its density increases because density is directly proportional to mass.

A student places her 490 g physics book on a frictionless table. She pushes the book against a spring, compressing the spring by

Paul [167]

Answer:

book speed is 3.99 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 490 g = 0.490 kg

compressing x = 7.10 cm = 0.0710 m

spring constant k = 1550 N/m

to find out

book speed

solution

we know energy is conserve so

we can say

loss in spring energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2 = \frac{1}{2}*m*v^2$ ..................1

put here value

$\frac{1}{2}*1550*0.071^2 = \frac{1}{2}*0.490*v^2$

v = 3.99 m/s

so book speed is 3.99 m/s
