What allows to float?

What allows to float? Objects with tightly packed molecules are more dense than those where the molecules are spread out. Density plays a part in why some things float and some sink. Objects that are more dense than water sink and those less dense float. When an object floats, it pushes water out of the […]

Does direction matter measuring momentum?

Does direction matter measuring momentum? Direction does not matter when you are measuring momentum. Momentum can be transferred from one object to another. When objects collide, some momentum is lost. What is the difference between momentum and velocity? As nouns the difference between velocity and momentum is that velocity is (physics) a vector quantity that […]

Is sound a standing wave?

Is sound a standing wave? Standing sound waves open and closed tubes. Sound waves are longitudinal waves in a medium such as air.

What causes a changing magnetic field?

What causes a changing magnetic field? The changing magnetic field caused by the material’s motion induces a current in the coil of wire proportional to the change in field. For a 1, the magnetic field changes from one direction to the other; this change induces a current in the coil. What happens when electric and […]
