Answer:

Fundamental unit is any unit that is not dependent on other units and other units can be derived from them

Explanation:

Units such as Kilogram, Mass and Time are said to be fundamental units because they are independent.

Differences between Mass and weight;

1. Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in a body while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.

2. Mass is a scalar quantity while weight is a vector quantity

yaroslaw [1]
The term you need to know is equilibrium. Technically it means that heat gained = heat lost. Normally in beginning chemistry classes the evidence for this condition is a stable temperature.

A piece of taffy slams into and sticks to another identical piece of taffy that is at rest. The momentum of the two pieces stuck
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

C. 50%

Explanation:

Lets consider that the mass of taffy is m and its initial velocity is u and final velocity is v. Momentum is conserved so we can write it as,

mu = 2mv\\v = \frac{u}{2} \\

The initial kinetic energy = \frac{mu^{2} }{2}

As the Kinetic energy partly converted into heat.

The final kinetic energy = \frac{m(\frac{u}{2})^{2}  }{2} = \frac{mu^{2} }{4}

Change in the kinetic energy = \frac{mu^{2} }{2} - \frac{mu^{2} }{4} = \frac{mu^{2} }{4}

now we can determine the fraction of kinetic energy that has turned into heat

                           = \frac{Heat energy}{initial K.E} = \frac{\frac{mu^{2} }{4} }{\frac{mu^{2} }{2} }  = 1/2

                           = 50%

Question 8(Multiple Choice Worth 2 points) Waves that make up the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum have lower energy
zmey [24]
The correct answer is <span>X–rays. 

X-beams or X-rays are a kind of radiation called electromagnetic waves. X-beam imaging makes photos of within your body. The pictures demonstrate the parts of your body in various shades of high contrast. This is on account of various tissues retain diverse measures of radiation.

Compare and contrast the sound waves produced by someone whispering and someone shouting.
andrezito [222]
1. They could have different types of sounds, so wave-shape could be different.

2. If they have the same frequency, the volume is different, so they could have different amplitudes (larger amplitude = larger sound).

3. Different frequencies based on the pitches
