11. Scientists put a sample of water into a sealed tank. Water can be a solid, liquid, or gas. At first, the water was a liquid.

Then, the scientists transferred energy out of the substance, and the water changed phase. What happened to the movement of the water molecules?
After the phase change, the water molecules moved . . .


a

faster and started moving away from each other.


b

faster and started moving around each other.


c

slower and started moving in place.


d

slower and started moving around each other.

Answer:

c . slower and started moving in place.

Explanation:

Matter can exist generally in three phases, as a solid, liquid or gas. But it can be transformed from one phase to another by the removal or application of heat energy.

The water was initially in a liquid form in the sealed tank until energy was transferred out of the substance. Thus, this causes a change of state in which the water turns to a solid. Whereby during the process, the molecules of the water moved slowly until they are fixed at a point, and vibrates individually at their individual point.

Therefore the molecules of water moved slower and stated moving in place (i.e vibrating at a point). The water turns to an ice.

F_P  + F_Q = M g
F_P = M g - F_Q
Torque, or moment of force:
∑ M_P = 0
∑ M_P = M g L - F_Q · 3 L
0 = M g L - 3 F_Q L         / : L
0 = M g - 3 F_Q
3 F_Q = M g
F_Q = M g /3
Finally:
F_P = M g - M g/3
F_P = 4 M g / 3

Masja [62]
Metal detectors work by transmitting an electromagnetic field from the search coil into the ground. Any metal objects (targets) within the electromagnetic field will become energised and retransmit an electromagnetic field of their own.
