Explanation:

Iron ball sinks in water but not in mercury because of the difference in the density iron used in iron ball. The iron ball has more density than water and less than the mercury.

Hence, Iron ball sinks in water but not in mercury.

mart [117]

According to the condensation theory, the most important factor for the formation of our planets was "the interstellar dust attracting heat away from the protosun".


Condensation is the procedure by which water particles noticeable all around bunch together and shape fluid water. This is regularly observed outwardly of cold glasses. This idea additionally identifies with the solar system.

The condensation theory of the solar system expresses that our solar system, and perhaps all other galaxies, were shaped from a cloud of residue and gas that consolidated into strong issue. Space experts trust that the littlest grains of residue in our cloud applied a draw on the gas about it, 'consolidating' into bigger and bigger bits of issue, similarly as a snowball moving downhill will become bigger and bigger. In the long run, the gravitational draw of these residue atoms was sufficiently solid that they started to pull in each other, developing into greater and greater clusters that had more grounded gravitational pulls. In the long run, these bunches of residue and gas from the cloud frame a star, and potentially planets, space rocks, and comets turning about the star.

A 66-kg fellow stands on a digital scale in an elevator that accelerates upwards from rest to 4.5 m/s in 2.00 s. show answer Inc
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of the fellow ( m ) = 66kg

acceleration of fellow a

v = u + at

4.5 = 0 + a x 2

a = 4.5 /2

= 2.25 m / s²

Net force acting on fellow in upward direction by the surface of  elevator

R - mg where R is reaction force of the surface of the elevator

Applying Newton's law of motion

R - mg = ma

R = m (g +a )

= 66 x ( 9.8 + 2 )

= 778.8 N

This will be the scale reading .

What happens when air from the balloon has exited the balloon? <br><br><br> How will motion change?​
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

When you release the opening of the balloon, gas quickly escapes to equalize the pressure inside with the air pressure outside of the balloon. The escaping air exerts a force on the balloon itself. ... That opposing force—called thrust, in this case—propels the rocket forward.
