Describe how absorption and scattering can affect a beam of light?
How absorption and scattering can affect a beam of light is if the beam of light is farther away from an object, the light would be dimmer. But, if the beam of light was closer to the object, then the light would appear brighter.
If equal forces are applied to a light and a heavy object which one will accelerate more?
the light one
Why does a heavy object fall at the same rate as a light object in a vacuum?
cause the two have lost their weight
Which would take less force to move a heavy object or a light weight object?
When you include the effects of friction, it takes less force to move a light-weight object. If you can get the objects into a frictionless environment, then any force, no matter how small, can move any object, no matter how heavy.
Why do objects all fall at the same time when gravity is the only force acting?
-- Because that's the way gravity behaves. -- Because is would be ridiculous to think that heavy objects fall faster. Here's why: ==> Let's say that heavy objects fall faster and light objects fall slower. ==> Take a piece of sticky tape and stick a light object onto the back of a heavy object. Then drop them together off of a roof. ==> The light object tries to fall slower and holds back, and the heavy object tries to fall faster and pulls forward. So when they're stuck together, they fall at some in-between speed. ==> But wait! When they're stuck together they weigh more than the heavy object alone. So how can a stuck-together object that's heavier than the heavy object alone fall at a speed that's slower than the heavy object alone ? ! ? Isn't that ridiculous ? There's no way that heavy objects can fall faster than light objects.
Should the wood for the catapult be light or heavy?
Heavy, light wood is likely to break or snap under tension.
what will travel farther a heavy golf ball or a lighter one?
WHICH DRIVERWILL HIT THE GOLF BALL FARTHER- HEAVY OR LIGHT
What stops first a heavy object or a light one?
A light object has less momentum than a heavy object. A light object would stop first.
What will go further a light or heavy car?
Both because heavy cars go farther down a hill. The light car go farther on regular flat surface.
How do you make a smaller and clearer shadow when you can not move the object?
Move the light source farther away from the object.
Which frisbee's can stay in the air the longest heavy or light?
Light because the wind is able to carry the disc farther.

What heavy object can be put on a light object?
-- A paper weight on a piece of paper. -- A car on an ant
