Answer:

The temperature of an object increases when the molecules that make up that object move faster. Thermal energy is energy possessed by an object or system due to the movement of particles within the object or the system.

What is the ball's acceleration?
muminat

Answer:

g, downward

Explanation:

It is given that, a baseball is thrown straight upward. The force acting on the stone is force of gravity. It is moving under the action of gravity. We know that the force of gravity always acts in a downward direction.

At the highest point, the velocity of the stone will be equal to 0. It will move will constant acceleration equal to g and it always acts in downward direction.

Hence, the correct option is (e) "downward direction".

What do the movements of stars and galaxies tell astronomers about how the universe formed?
natulia [17]
This could be Hubble's law, or something related to it. I think there's a possibly Doppler RED SHIFT in the optical spectra of stars etc as observed on the earth. It seems that they are accelerating away from the earth, and that the further away they are the faster they are moving.
It seems that this has been connected to the idea of "The Big Bang" theory of the origin of the universe which seems to have superceded Professor Sir Fred Hoye's Steady State theory of the universe.
There's some Special Relativity in this lot, too.

While 75-kg Anthony roller skates at 3 m/s, 60-kg Sue jumps into his arms with a velocity of 5 m/s. How fast does the pair go to
anzhelika [568]

Apply conservation of linear momentum

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow m1v1+m2v2=(m1+m2)V3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 75(3)+60(5)=(75+60)V3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 225+300=135v3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow 525=135v3

\\ \rm\Rrightarrow V3=3.89m/s

A squirrel, a train, a bird, and a car are all traveling at the same velocity. Which object has the greatest amount of kinetic e
Tanzania [10]
The greatest amount of kinetic energy is found with the train because it takes most energy to reach that velocity and also to slow down to a halt.
