Answer:
False
Explanation:
Water contains ions that can conduct electricity and if touched it can cause harm (aka electrocution).
Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.
The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease.
An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host. A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.
Due to diseases, affected people can not work which negatively affects the economy, and the sick may end up dying causing a lot of grief, and robbing society of a father, a mother or child.
The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
It is a common misunderstanding that objects in space have no weight. If that were true, they would just float away from the Earth, the Sun and the other planets. Objects in low Earth orbit experience about 90% of the weight that they feel on the surface of the Earth.
The answer is A. Further apart and move faster.
Conduction in general is the transfer of energy from molecule to molecule through DIRECT CONTACT. In solids and liquids, the molecules are closer to each other; more so in solids than liquids. This enables them to pass energy more quickly. Gas molecules on the other hand are further apart and move faster because they have space to move more freely. Energy does not easily pass on to the next molecule because of the distance between the molecules.
Answer:
a. A baseball after it has been hit - not in free fall
b. A rock that is thrown in the air - not in free fall
c. The moon - free-fall
d. A paper airplane - not in free fall
e. A bird flying - not in free fall
Explanation:
- The free-fall is defined as the falling of an object due to the action of gravity. The object is not experiencing any other force neglecting the air resistance.
- If an object is in free-fall, the direction of its motion is directed towards the center of the earth. It does not have a horizontal component of velocity.
- If the body is under free-fall, but a centripetal force acts on it where it is equal to the gravitational force at that point. The object will have two components of velocity along the tangential line, perpendicular to the radius of the orbit.
a. A baseball after it has been hit - not in free fall according to point 1 & 2.
b. A rock that is thrown in the air - not in free fall according to point 1.
c. The moon - free-fall according to point 3.
d. A paper airplane - not in free fall according to point 1 & 2.
e. A bird flying - not in free fall according to point 1 & 2.
