Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
Whether the distance covered on throwing a bowling ball change when done on Earth and then on the moon is to be stated. The reason for the same is to be explained.
Concept introduction:
Mass is the measurement of matter that is present in an object. Weight measures the gravitational force acting on an object. Mass is one of the factors on which gravitational force depends. On changing the gravitational force, weight of a substance also changes, but mass is independent of gravity.
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the distance rolled by a bowling ball on a flat, smooth surface change when done on Earth and then on the moon is to be stated. The reason for the same is to be explained.

- Marie Curie was born in Poland but studied and carried out her research in Paris. In 1903, she shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with H. Becquerel and her husband Pierre for their discovery of radioactivity. (In 1911 she received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for the discovery of two new chemical elements, radium and polonium, the latter named for her homeland, Poland.) They and others observed that a radioactive substance could emit three types of radiation: alpha (), beta (), and gamma (). If the radiation from a radioactive source is passed between electrically charged plates, some particles are attached to the positive plate, some to the negative plate, and others feel no attraction. Which particles are positively charged, which are negatively charged, and which have no charge? Of the two charged particles, which has the most mass? Radioactivity. Alpha (), beta I(), and gamma () rays from a radioactive element are separated by passing them between electrically charged plates.arrow_forward9.34 A copper nail and an iron nail of the same mass and initially at the same room temperature are both put into a vessel containing boiling water.

- 9. When a volatile liquid is completely vaporized in an Erlenmeyer flask, the volume of the flask (and thus the vapor) can be determined by one of two methods. One method is by filling up the whole flask with water and then finding out the water volume by pouring the water into a measuring cylinder over multiple times and read off its volume. • From the topics we learnt this semester, what do you think can be the other method of determining the volume of water in the flask? Which method do you think is more accurate? Why? (arrow_forwardA measurement related to the mass and velocity (speed) of particles. a. absolute zero b. boiling point c. Boyle's Law d.
