Answer:

gravity

Explanation:

Technically it would be mass or speed because it depends on ow big or small it is, but if you break it down it will be due to gravity as it gets stronger

Why is it that the weight of an object weighing 1N air, weighs more when immersed in water ?
Anni [7]
There is no "why", because that's not what happens.  The truth is
exactly the opposite. 

Whatever the weight of a solid object is in air, that weight will appear
to be LESS when the object is immersed in water.

The object is lifted by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces.
It displaces the same amount of air or water, and any amount of water
weighs more than the same amount of air.  So the force that lifts the
object in water is greater than the force that lifts it in air, and the object
appears to weigh less in the water.

Classify the properties as extensive or intensive: mass density; color volume; total energy; temperature; melting point
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Intensive properties

Density

Color

temperature

Melting point

Extensive properties

Mass

Volume

Total Energy

Explanation:

Intensive properties:  In Physics, Intensive properties which are not depend of the amount of matter in a sample, It only depends of the type of matter, some examples of intensive properties are:

1. Density: It is a intensive property. It can explain better with a example:  the water density is 1000 kg/m3, So if we have 1 liter or 1000 liters of water  the density will be the same for the two samples.

2. Color: Solid sodium chloride is white. If you have 2 samples the first recipient  with 2 kilograms of NaCl and the second with 10 kilograms of NaCl. The color of the substance does not depend on the amount of the substance.

As was mentioned before the same theory is applied to temperature and melting point concepts.

On the other hand,

Extensive properties are properties of the matter which depend on the amount of matter that is present in the system or sample. some examples are:

1. Mass: It is a property that measures the amount of matter that an object contains. For example, 10 kilograms of solid Copper contains a higher mass than 2 kilograms of the same metal.  

2. Volume: It is a property which measures the space occupied by an object or a substance. For example, the space occupied by a glass of milk is lower than the space occupied by a bottle of milk, Then the volume of the glass of milk is lower than the volume of the bottle of milk.

3. Finally the total energy is contained in molecules and atoms that constituted systems  so, if the amount of matter increases the number of molecules too, then the total energy will increase.

I hope it helps you.

Without fluid friction, all objects accelerate at?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Acceleration of gravity=9.8m/s/s

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law-acceleration is proportional to the net force acting on an object.

All objects usually free fall at the same acceleration of 9.8m/s/s-this regardless of their mass. This acceleration is known as acceleration of gravity.

A boulder with a weight of 780 N is resting at the edge of a cliff that rises 123 m above the ground. What is the gravitational
-Dominant- [34]
Potential energy U = mgh

Given h = 123 m,
mg = F = 780 N

Then
U = (123)(780)
= 95940
= 9.59 x 10^4
