The answer is B.

A. Particles are always vibrating. The hotter the object, the more average kinetic energy the particles have, and thus vibrating faster. If the matter is cooled down to absolute zero (ie. 0K or -273°C), the particles will stop vibrating as they lose all the kinetic energy.

B. Particles in solids are vibrating within a fixed location. They are closely packed together, forming a regular and fixed shape. When the solids are heated up and become liquid or gas, the particles will gain potential energy, which allows them to move around and further apart from each other. Thus, liquid and gas do not have a fixed shape.

C. Intermolecular forces are the chemical bonds (eg. ionic bond, covalent bond) among atoms and molecules. Stronger bonds result in a higher boiling point and melting point as more energy is required to break the forces. Yet, even substances with weak intermolecular forces could still be frozen to solid, so the strength of the bonds does not affect the physical states of the substance.

D. For the same kind of substance, solid has a lower temperature than liquid and gas. Temperature is proportional to the average kinetic energy of the particles, so the particles vibrate less vigorously. Yet, taking water and ice as an example, if you have a large piece of ice and a drop of water, although the average kinetic energy of ice is lower than that of water, the total kinetic energy of the particles in the ice could still be larger than that in the water, since there are many more particles in the ice.

A woman of mass 50 kg is swimming with a velocity of 1.6 m/s. If she stops stroking and glides to a stop in the water, what is t
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Impulse of force = -80 Ns

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 50kg

Initial velocity = 1.6m/s

Since she glides to a stop, her final velocity equals to zero (0).

Now, we would find the change in velocity.

Change \; in \; velocity = final \; velocity - initial \; velocity

Substituting into the equation above;

Change in velocity = 0 - 1.6 = 1.6m/s

Impulse \; of \; force = mass * change \; in \; velocity

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Impulse \; of \; force = 50 * -1.6

<em>Impulse of force = -80 Ns</em>

<em>Therefore, the impulse of the force that stops her is -80 Newton-seconds and it has a negative value because it is working in an opposite direction, thus, bringing her to a stop. </em>

If the magnitude of the electric field in air exceeds roughly 3 ✕ 106 n/c, the air breaks down and a spark forms. for a two-di
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: 39.8 μC

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field generated by a capacitor is given by:

E = \frac{V}{d}

d is the distance between the plates.

For a capacitor, charge Q = CV where C is the capacitance and V is the voltage.

C =\frac{\epsilon_o A }{d}

where A is the area of the plate and ε₀ is the absolute permittivity.

substituting, we get

E = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_o A}

It is given that the magnitude of the electric field that can exist in the capacitor before air breaks down is, E = 3 × 10⁶ N/C.

radius of the plates of the capacitor, r = 69 cm = 0.69 m

Area of the plates, A = πr² = 1.5 m²

Thus, the maximum charge that can be placed on disks without a spark is:

Q = E×ε₀×A

⇒ Q = 3 × 10⁶ N/C × 8.85 × 10⁻¹² F/m × 1.5 m² = 39.8 × 10⁻⁶ C = 39.8 μC.

A spring with spring constant 15 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. It is
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

a

   m  = 0.169 \ kg

b

  |v_{max} |=  0.5653 \ m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  spring constant is  k =  14 \ N/m

     The  maximum extension of the spring is  A =  6.0 \ cm  =  0.06 \ m

     The number of oscillation is  n  =  30

      The  time taken is  t  =  20 \ s

Generally the the angular speed of this oscillations is mathematically represented as

           w = \frac{2 \pi}{T}

where T is the period which is mathematically represented as

     T  =  \frac{t}{n}

substituting values

     T  =  \frac{20}{30 }

     T  = 0.667 \ s

Thus  

       w = \frac{2 * 3.142 }{ 0.667}

       w =  9.421 \ rad/s

this angular speed can also be represented mathematically as

       w =  \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

=>   m  =\frac{k }{w^2}

substituting values

      m  =\frac{ 15 }{(9.421)^2}

      m  = 0.169 \ kg

In SHM (simple harmonic motion )the equation for velocity is  mathematically represented as

        v =  - Awsin (wt)

The  velocity is maximum when  wt = \(90^o) \ or \ 1.5708\ rad

     v_{max} = -  A* w

=>   |v_{max} |=  A* w

=>    |v_{max} |=   0.06 * 9.421

=>   |v_{max} |=  0.5653 \ m/s
