A thermostat is a switch that operates itself when the temperature goes above or below a temperature that the user can set.
-- Before you go to bed, you set the thermostat for 65° . If the temperature in the house goes below 65° during the night, the thermostat turns on the furnace, and keeps it running until the house warms up to 65°. Then it shuts the furnace off.
-- After breakfast, you set the thermostat for 75°. If the temperature in the house goes above 75°, during the day, the thermostat turns on the air conditioner, and keeps it running until the house cools down to 75°. Then it shuts the air conditioner off.
-- On Sunday morning, you put the slow cooker on the kitchen counter, and you throw in a big roast, a sliced onion, some baby carrots, some sliced potatoes, some vegetable stock, salt, pepper, garlic, chili powder, and tomato paste. Then you put the cover on, turn the power on, and set the slow cooker to "LOW". The heater in the slow cooker turns on. Whenever the temperature in the crock gets higher than 160°, the thermostat in the slow cooker turns off the heater, and keeps it off until the crock cools down to 160°. Then the thermostat turns the heater on again. By dinner time, you have a hot, juicy, scrumptious pot roast, ready to eat. It's not too hot, not too cold, not too tough, not dried out, and it melts in your mouth. You're still thinking about it when you go to bed, and your mom gives you a slice to take to school for your lunch on Monday.
From the momentum conservation we know that the initial momentum is equal to the final momentum. The momentum in a singular way can be defined as the product between the mass and the velocity of an object. In the presented system, however, there are two objects, therefore the mass of both and the speed of both, before and after the collision must be taken into account. Mathematically we could describe this as
Here,
= Mass of each object
= Initial velocity of each object
= Final velocity of each object
From here we can realize that it is necessary to use the system on both cars to be able to predict what will happen either with their masses, or their speeds.
Gamma rays is at the end of the electromagnetic spectrum, and has the highest energy. It propagates through space at 3x10^8 m/s and has the smallest wavelength and the highest frequency. It is given off by atoms of element as they undergo nuclear disintegration.
To answer these questions just use the equations for potential energy using the mass and heights described. the potential energy at the prescribed heights = the initial kinetic energy required to reach that height.
Make sure you calculate the force of gravity on the surface using the radius of the planet.
