Of course not. A moving object has a tendency to continue moving. It won't just stop, without any good reason - i.e., without a force that stops it.

How are days and nights caused?

The Earth rotates on an imaginary axis which runs from the North Pole to the South Pole. It takes the Earth 24 hours to rotate on its axis. When we wake up it appears the Sun rises in the East and when we go to sleep it sets in the West. The Sun is not actually moving, it is the Earth which is rotating about its axis. The Earth also rotates around the Sun while it is rotating about its own axis. This axis gives us the Seasons. When the Earth's axis is pointing towards the Sun, the days are longer because we get sunlight for longer but when the Earth has rotated around to the other side of the Sun, the days get shorter because the axis is now pointing away from the Sun. The days gets shorter and the nights get longer. It takes the Earth 365 1/4 days to orbit the Sun. So we have only 365 days in a year and then every 4 years we have 366 days because we add the 1/4 to make a whole day. The moon rotates around the Earth, taking approximately 28 days, this gives us the phases of the moon.


What is the mass of the Earth's core?

The mass of the Earth's core is estimated to be about 1/3 of the total mass of the Earth, which is roughly 1.9 x 1024 kilograms.


How A speed boat moving at a velocity of 25 ms runs out of gas and drifts to a stop 3 minutes later 100 meters away. What is its rate of deceleration?

To find the rate of deceleration, we first need to convert the time from minutes to seconds. 3 minutes = 180 seconds. Next, we use the equation of motion: final velocity^2 = initial velocity^2 + 2 * acceleration * distance. Since the boat comes to a stop, the final velocity is 0 m/s. Substituting the values and solving for acceleration, we get a deceleration rate of 0.139 m/s^2.


What is the 6 things that forces can do?

Force can: * Move an stationary object * Speed up * Slow down a moving object * Change the direction of a moving object * Stop a moving object * Change the shape of an object Hope this is useful to you!


How do variable constant and periodic motion compare?

3 types of motion:constant means the object is always moving.periodic means that the object is moving back and forth.variable means that the object can change its speed and direction.examples:constant - the earth moving around the sun.periodic - a swing moving back and forth.variable - a car driving then turning or slowing down.
