Is it true that all atoms in objects are moving even if the object is still?

yep it's true. The atoms in a still object just move a lot faster and are closer together but they're moving


Is the sneeze faster than a bullet?

Yes, because sprays can reach up to 120 miles per hour.


An electric train is moving north at 100kph and a wind is blowing to the west at 10kph. Which way does the smoke blow?

What? Electric trains don't even have smoke


What is the frame of reference for position speed and acceleration?

The frame of reference with regard to postion, speed and acceleration is just your perspective in measuring speed, position, or acceleration. Say you are watching a horse and a train moving alongside each other in the same direction. If you are standing on still ground, you observe the horse and the train moving at a certain speed relative to you. Let's assume this speed is three meters per second. Now suppose you are on the train looking at the horse, which is still moving at the same speed in the same direction. You will see the horse moving at zero meters per second relative to you, because both you and the horse are moving at the same speed. Even though you are both moving, the horse will still move along side you as if you and the horse are standing perfectly still.

What is apparant motion?

Motion that appears to happen (but in reality may not - it may be due to changing frames of reference).ExamplesThe Sun appears to move from East to West across the sky during the course of a day.Some stars appear to move relative to some other stars.While seated in a moving train if another train comes alongside for a while and maintains the same speed there may be very little relative motion but when their speeds differ one appears to move slowly (even though from an observer outside the train both are moving rapidly). It may even be difficult from on board the trains to determine which of the trains actually is moving.

Why is it harder to stop a train than a car even when the car is moving faster?

The train is heavier than the car is and the train has more things in the back. The train is heavier than the car is and the train has more things in the back.


Can an electric train go faster than plane?

A fast train can be faster than a slow plane. But even a regular plane will be faster than fast train.


How do you train a cat to speak?

I Beleive it Can, like if you train so well enough. It might even be harder then training a baby how to speak its first words!


In Mario kart 64 can Mario drive faster than a train?

According to our testing Mario can drive faster then a train. to get that answer we drove Mario onto the track and drove into the train after it has just passed. This proves that Mario is faster then a train because to catch up with the train that has just passed we would have had to be faster then the train. Also we tested by waiting on the track until we could hear the train right behind us and we would start driving. Soon after we stopped again and we could barely even hear the train behind us.


What is faster a train or a airplane?

Planes, on average, are faster than trains. With most planes traveling at 400 to 500mph while even the fastest conventional train in regular operation only goes 200mph


Do you live longer at the equator because your moving faster than someone living at the poles?

Yes.The theory of relativity affirms that a person moving faster lives slower. However his perception of reality is also retarded so even though he lives longer he experiences it faster so everything evens out.


A day without friction?

Impossible. Any moving object would become infinitely faster, and gravity would be infinitely stronger. Friction keeps the tectonic plates from moving any faster. This would be impossible to imagine, even for the most scientific minds.


Why you stay at same place when you jump in moving train or bus?

When you are inside a moving train or bus, you are moving at the same speed as that train or bus, and you have the same momentum, so even when you jump, and are no longer in contact with the floor, your existing momentum will carry you along with the vehicle, under normal circumstances. If you happen to jump at a time with the train or bus is changing the speed or direction of its travel, however, you will find that you do not stay in the same place, with respect to the train or bus. You need to have solid contact with the vehicle for its own changes of motion to alter your own motion.

You can get somewhere faster than taking a train or bus that only goes 25 mph in school zones even on the weekend.
