A baryon is a particle that is made up of three quarks (which are fundamental particles) bound by the strong force. A meson, on the other hand, is a particle which is made up of one quark and one antiquar...

This question is to do with the refraction that occurs when a light ray hits a boundary between two media of different refractive index. We know that the relationship between the angle of incidence and an...

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of an object. We can approximate this average kinetic energy using the relationship E≈kT. Where k is the boltzmann constant and T is the absolute tem...

Heat energy Q = mass of substance m X SHC of substance C X change in temperature ΔT Q = 10kg X 4200Jkg^-1⁰C^-1 X (27-22)⁰C Q = 10kg X 4200Jkg^-1⁰C^-1 X 5⁰C Q=210,000J = 210kJ 210 kilojoules of energy is r...

F=ma, so a=F/m giving a=2.4m/s^2. When t=9s, v=at, so v=21.6m/s. Friction force is Ff = μF(normal), which is Ff = μmg, so Ff = 6670.8N (if g = 9.81m/s^2). Frictional force always acts against the directio...
