Speed, being a scalar quantity, is the rate at which an object covers distance. The average speed is the distance (a scalar quantity) per time ratio. ... Velocity is the rate at which the position changes. The average velocity is the displacement or position change (a vector quantity) per time ratio.
This question is not complete.
The complete question is as follows:
One problem for humans living in outer space is that they are apparently weightless. One way around this problem is to design a space station that spins about its center at a constant rate. This creates “artificial gravity” at the outside rim of the station. (a) If the diameter of the space station is 800 m, how many revolutions per minute are needed for the “artificial gravity” acceleration to be 9.80m/s2?
Explanation:
a. Using the expression;
T = 2π√R/g
where R = radius of the space = diameter/2
R = 800/2 = 400m
g= acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2
1/T = number of revolutions per second
T = 2π√R/g
T = 2 x 3.14 x √400/9.8
T = 6.28 x 6.39 = 40.13
1/T = 1/40.13 = 0.025 x 60 = 1.5 revolution/minute
Answer:
Because the Earth has so much gravity, it can hold water, land, and life in it's atmosphere.
(Not sure what beaker you are talking about, so sorry) But I don't think the moon's gravity would have an effect on a beaker of water because the Earth's gravity is much more than the moon's.
I think you would be able to feel a little bit of Earth's gravity on the moon because the Earth's gravity pulled the moon into orbit, therefore, gravity on Earth my have some effect on the moon.
hope this helps!
B: Energy lose
i say this because in order to change they lose energy.
