What are two substances? Two Main Types of Pure Substances Elements and compounds are the two types of pure substances. Examples of common elements include carbon, nitrogen and hydrogen. They consist of one type of atom and cannot break down into something else. Every pure carbon substance, for example, has the same particles in it. […]
Which best describes the motion of an object?
Which best describes the motion of an object? You can describe the motion of an object by its position, speed, direction, and acceleration. An object is moving if its position relative to a fixed point is changing. Even things that appear to be at rest move. Which formula is used to find an objects acceleration? […]
How can an object accelerate towards the center without getting closer to the center?
How can an object accelerate towards the center without getting closer to the center? If an object is in uniform circular motion, then it is accelerating towards the center of the circle; yet the object never gets any closer to the center of the circle. It maintains a circular path at a constant radius from […]
What planet spins the fastest?
What planet spins the fastest? Jupiter What determines how fast a planet spins? The rotational speed is normally determined by the initial angular momentum when the planet formed, but may also be altered subsequently by large collisions (as for example the collision of the earth with another planet which gave us our moon). Why Jupiter […]
What is binding energy used for?
What is binding energy used for? Binding energy, amount of energy required to separate a particle from a system of particles or to disperse all the particles of the system. Binding energy is especially applicable to subatomic particles in atomic nuclei, to electrons bound to nuclei in atoms, and to atoms and ions bound together […]

How are matter and volume connected?
How are matter and volume connected? Matter is all the “stuff” that exists in the universe. It has both mass and volume. Mass measures the amount of matter in a substance or an object. Volume measures the amount of space that a substance or an object takes up. What is relation between volume and capacity? […]
What are the characteristics of mid-ocean ridges?
What are the characteristics of mid-ocean ridges? Principal characteristics. Oceanic ridges are found in every ocean basin and appear to girdle Earth. The ridges rise from depths near 5 km (3 miles) to an essentially uniform depth of about 2.6 km (1.6 miles) and are roughly symmetrical in cross section. They can be thousands of […]
