No, because the Styrofoam is to light and won't produce enough kinetic energy. Plus Styrofoam is not a good material for Newton's cradle.

How does Newton's cradle work if there is a finger in between the silver balls and why does it act this way?

Well, when you put your finger in between the pendula (the little balls connected to the wire), that stops the flow of energy through the pendula. Newton's Cradle is a device that shows the laws of motion through entertainment. When one pendula is lifted, the the gravity transfers potential energy into kinetic energy, which is sent through the three pendula and to the last one, forcing that pendula to fly up. When the pendula comes back down, it starts the process all over again.


Would a nail in styrofoam work as a Cartesian diver?

Yes, a nail in Styrofoam could work as a Cartesian diver, provided that the total density of the diver assembly (nail plus Styrofoam) is less than that of the fluid it's in. When you squeeze the container, the increased pressure compresses the air in the Styrofoam, making the diver denser and causing it to sink. Releasing the pressure allows the air to expand, decreasing the density and causing the diver to rise.


Is work involed in newtons second law?

No, his three laws do not directly address work done.


How many newtons are 60 joule?

To convert joules to newtons, we need to know the distance over which the work is done, as 1 joule is equal to 1 newton-meter. Without the distance, we can't directly convert joules to newtons. However, if you assume the work is done over a distance of 1 meter, then 60 joules would equal 60 newtons.

Does the Nintendo 3DS charging cradle plug into an outlet?

Yes. For the cradle to work, you must plug the 3DS charger into the cradle.


What kind of glue should I use for styrofoam?

You should use a glue that is specifically designed for styrofoam, such as a styrofoam adhesive or a low-temperature hot glue gun. Regular glue may not work well with styrofoam.

What type of glue should I use for styrofoam?

You should use a special type of glue called "craft glue" or "foam glue" that is specifically designed for bonding styrofoam. Regular glue may not work well with styrofoam.


How can I mold styrofoam at home?

To mold styrofoam at home, you can use a hot wire cutter or a heat gun to shape and sculpt the styrofoam. Be sure to work in a well-ventilated area and wear protective gear to avoid inhaling fumes.

What is the best material to stick something to a Styrofoam ball?

A strong adhesive like hot glue or epoxy resin would work well to stick something to a Styrofoam ball. Be cautious with any adhesive that contains solvents, as they could damage the Styrofoam.

How do you turn newtons into joules?

To convert Newtons to Joules, you multiply the force in Newtons by the distance in meters over which the force is applied. Joules are a unit of energy, and when you multiply force (in Newtons) by distance (in meters), you get work done, which is measured in Joules.
