Answer:
Cork
Explanation:
Cork is a solid, other ones are fluid.
Answer:
When it's closest to the sun.
Explanation:
The force of gravity acting on a planet is equal to its mass times its centripetal acceleration.
Fg = m v^2 / r
The force of gravity is defined by Newton's law of universal gravitation as:
Fg = mMG / r^2
Therefore:
mMG / r^2 = m v^2 / r
MG / r = v^2
v increases as r decreases. So the planet is moving fastest when it's closest to the sun, also known as the <em>perihelion</em>.
Answer:
420000N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the train = 5.6 x 10⁵kg
Acceleration = 0.75m/s²
Unknown:
Resultant force = ?
Solution:
According to newton's second law, force is the product of mass and acceleration;
Force = mass x acceleration
Resultant force that acts on the train is given below;
Force = 5.6 x 10⁵kg x 0.75m/s² = 420000N
Answer:
A) Its density will decrease
Explanation:
When an object is heated, its volume increases. This is due to the fact that the particles in the medium vibrate more (if it is a solid) or they move more (if it is a liquid or a gas), therefore they tend to occupy a larger space.
At the same time, the mass of the object does not change, because the mass just represents the amount of matter contained in the object, so it does not increase/decrease at different temperatures.
The density of an object is defined as the ratio between the mass (m) and the volume (V):

We said that the mass remains unchanged while the volume increases: since the density is inversely proportional to the volume, this means that the density decreases.
