Answer:

Your answer would be D. be pushed down into their seats.

Explanation:

You can think of it this way:

If you're not wearing a seat belt on an airplane that drops suddenly, in this case, vertically, which often happens with turbulence- you're the one at rest. You'll stay at rest as the plane (literally) drops out from under you.

If you're strapped in, the seat belt serves as an outside force acting on you, taking you with the plane as it drops and saving you from hitting the ceiling.

Always remember Newton's first law of motion: A body at rest will remain at rest unless an outside force acts on it.

Four blocks of weights are required using which any body whose weight is between 1kg and 40 kg can be weighed. Find the four wei
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The weights are 1 kg, 3kg, 9kg and 27kg.

Explanation:

The weights are 1 kg, 3kg, 9kg and 27kg.

1+3+9+27= 40

27+9+3= 39

27+9+3-1=38

27+9+1=37

27+9=36

27+9-1=35

27+9+1-3=34

27+9-3=33

27+9-3-1=32

27+3+1=31

27+3=30

27+3-1=29

27+1=28

27

27-1=26

27+1-3=25

27-3=24

27-3-1=23

27+3+1-9=22

27+3-9=21

27+3-9-1=20

Like this all the weights from 1 to 40 kg can be made using 1,3,9 and 27 kg.

Temperature is a measure of how much the atoms in a substance are moving. Why is a substance hotter in the gas state than in the
dolphi86 [110]
Hey there!
In a gas state, particles have lots of energy, so they move around very rapidly, hitting each other and flowing around, that's why you see them moving so freely. Because they have so much energy, the substance is likely to be harder, as it can obtain more thermal energy, or heat.
Hope this helps!

A feather is dropped onto the surface of the moon. How far will the feather have fallen if it reaches the surface in 9.00 second
blagie [28]

   Distance of fall = (1/2) · (acceleration of gravity) · (time)²

                         =  (1/2)    ·      (1.63 m/s²)   ·   (9 sec)²

                         =          (0.815 m/s²)          ·    (81 sec²)

                         =                    66 meters  .

On Earth ... IF there were no air ... the feather would fall
397 meters in the same amount of time !
