A boy is standing motionless on a skateboard. He throws a basketball forward. Describe his motion.

Physics

Answer:

Random motion

Explanation:

If the boy throws the basketball forward while at a position on the skateboard, the motion of the ball will be a random motion since we are not told if the ball is moving on a straight line when thrown forward.

In this case, the boy will tend to move in the direction of the ball. Since the ball is moving in a random manner, the motion of the boy will also be a random motion.

A random motion is a motion of a body in a zig zag manner. It is also known as Brownian motion e.g motion of a buzzing mosquito, motion of a smoke coming out of a chimney etc.

If 180 grams of potassium iodide is dissolved in 100 cm3 of water at 30oC, a(n) _______________ solution is formed. A) saturated
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: D)supersaturated

Explanation: Solubility is defined as the amount of solute in grams which can dissolve in 100 g of the liquid to form a saturated solution at that particular temperature.

At 30^0C , the solubility of KI is 153g/100 ml.

Thus if 180 grams is dissolved, it contains more amount of solute than it can hold at that that temperature, and thus is supersaturated solution.

A saturated solution is a solution containing the maximum concentration of a solute dissolved in the solvent. ​The additional solute does not dissolve in a saturated solution.

An unsaturated solution is solution in which the solute concentration is lower than its equilibrium solubility.

A supersaturated solution is one that has more solute than it can hold at a certain temperature.
