Imagine a place in the cosmos..far from all gravitational and frictional influences..Suppose that you visit that place (just suppose)...and throw a rock.What will the rock do? Why?​

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

After the initial push, the rock will keep moving forever at constant velocity (constant speed in a straight line)

Explanation:

We can answer this question by using Newton's first law of motion:

"An object at rest (or in motion at constant velocity) will stay at rest (or will keep moving at constant velocity) unless acted upon unbalanced forces" (Law of inertia)

In this problem, we have a rock in a place very far from any force that can act on it. This means that there are no unbalanced force acting on it, so the rock will keep its state of motion forever.

In this situation, the rock is initially thrown by the astronaut. After the initial push, which accelerates the rock up to a certain velocity, there will be no more forces acting on the rock. This means that the rock will continue moving at a constant velocity forever, so at a constant speed in a straight line.

jenny measures the outside temperature as 16 degrees celcius,61 degrees Fahrenheit. she observes precipitation falling from the clouds in a solid form.what type of precipitation is jenny most likely observing. A)hail B)rain C)sleet D)snow

Answers

A.hail is a reasonable answer 
A. The temperature is too high for snow or sleet to fall, because both need temperatures lower that 32 degrees F. Jennifer observed precipitation falling from the clouds in a SOLID form, meaning rain is out of the question.

Jenny wants to determine if a new brand name washing detergent is better than her old detergent she washed ten dirty t-shirts with the new washing detergent and ten dirty t-shirts with the old detergent identify the dependent and independent variables for this experiment

Answers

Answer:


Independent variable: washer detergent

Dependent varaible: cleaing power of effectivenes of the detergent.


Explanation:


When an experiiment is performed there exists one independent variable, one dependent variable, and some other variables that must be controlled.


The goal of the experiment is to test a hypothesis, which is a statement that relates an effect with a cause and that must be proved true or false.


The effect in the dependent variable, and the cause is the independent variable.


Jenny (the scientist) wants to show how an effect or phenomenun, the dependent variable, is explained by the explanatory, independent, variable.


In the stated experiment, Jenny wants to know how the effectiveness of a new brand detergent and an old one compare with each other. Therefore, she designs a test in which she will determine how the brand of detergent may  explain (explanatory or independent variable) the cleaning power or effectiveness, the dependent variable.


Jenny only can manipulate the independent variable and observe the effect on the dependent variable.


To be conclusive, other variables must be controlled, like the fabric and the amount of dirt of the t-shirts.

Why do ice cubes always float at the top of a glass of water?

Answers


Because water is a very very very very very unusual substance ... It's
the only known substance whose solid form is less dense than its liquid
form near the same temperature.

In other words, water is the only known substance for which a solid lump
of it floats in a liquid glass of it.

If that were not true ... if the behavior of the density of water around its
freezing temperature were the same as the density of all other known
substances ... then life on Earth would be impossible.

Think about that for a while !  Ya gotta admire whoever it was that designed water !

because ice is less dense than liquid water

The force of repulsion between two identical positive charges is 0.800 N when the charges are 0.100 m apart. Find the value of each charge.

Answers

Answer:

Value of each charge is given as

q = 9.43 * 10^(-7) C

Explanation:

As we know that electrostatic force between two charges is given as

F = (kq_1 q_2)/(r^2)

here we know that

q_1 = q_2 = q

F = 0.800 N

r = 0.100 m

now we have

F = ((9* 10^9) q^2)/((0.100)^2)

0.800 = 9* 10^(11) q^2

q = 9.43 * 10^(-7) C
