Hello.


The gaseous state is the more compressible state, because it has the volume of its container.

The liquid state is virtually incompressible, and the solid state compression is very small.

The plasma is another state that has high compression, but in this case the matter is not bound(we don't have the proton in the core of the atom)

A particular circuit toolbox contains only 80 Ω resistors and switches, which can be open or closed. Construct a circuit, fillin
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Here we need to make parallel connection of two 80 ohm resistors to achieve 40 ohm net resistance.

Explanation:

As we know that the resistances in series add up directly and here we are given with only the resistors of 80 Ω.

So when we connect two resistors of 80 ohm in parallel we get the resultant of 40 ohm.

Mathematically:

\frac{1}{R_p} =\frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R}

\frac{1}{40} =\frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R}

\frac{1}{40} =\frac{2}{R}

R=80\Omega gives us the only combination of two resistors in parallel.

Four distinguishable particles move freely in a room divided into octants (there are no actual partitions). Let the basic states
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the door that leads to the room is opened, this gives room for particles to move into the next identical room and divided into octants. Now the amount of space that can be occupied becomes double, the number of basic states has increased by 404916

Earth’s polar ice caps contain about 2.3 × 1019 kg of ice. This mass contributes essentially nothing to the moment of inertia of
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial moment of inertia of the earth I₁ = 2/5 MR² , M is mss of the earth and R is the radius . If ice melts , it forms an equivalent shell of mass  2.3 x 10¹⁹ Kg

Final moment of inertia I₂ = 2/5 M R² + 2/3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²

For change in period of rotation we shall apply conservation of angular momentum law

I₁ ω₁  = I₂ ω₂  ,  ω₁ and   ω₂ are angular velocities initially and finally .

I₁ / I₂     =  ω₂ / ω₁

I₁ / I₂     =  T₁ / T₂  , T₁ , T₂ are time period initially and finally .

T₂ / T₁ = I₂ / I₁

(2/5 M R² + 2/3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ x R²) / 2/5 MR²

1 + 5 / 3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / M

= 1 + 5 / 3  x 2.3 x 10¹⁹ / 5.97 x 10²⁴

= 1 + .0000064

T₂ = 24 (1 + .0000064)

= 24 hours + .55 s

change in length of the day = .55 s .

What is the least amount of time required for a given point on this wave to move from y = 0 to y = 12cm?
ale4655 [162]

Time t = ?

<span>When wave is moving from y = 0  to y =12 cm</span>

By using the formula,

y = 15cos [(π/12) t)] = 0,

cos [(π/12) t)] = 0 = cos (π/2), so, 

(π/12)t = π/2,

t = (π/2) (12/π) 

t = 12/2

<span>t = 6 sec</span>

<span>so 6 sec is the least amount of time required</span>

11–8 Consider a heavy car submerged in water in a lake with a flat bottom. The driver’s side door of the car is 1.1 m high and 0
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Explanation:

position of centre of mass of door from surface of water

= 10 + 1.1 / 2

= 10.55 m

Pressure on centre of mass

atmospheric pressure + pressure due to water column

10 ⁵ + hdg

= 10⁵ + 10.55 x 1000 x 9.8

= 2.0339 x 10⁵ Pa

the net force acting on the door (normal to its surface)

= pressure at the centre x area of the door

= .9 x 1.1 x 2.0339 x 10⁵

= 2.01356 x 10⁵ N

pressure centre will be at 10.55 m below the surface.

When the car is filled with air or  it is filled with water , in both the cases pressure centre will lie at the centre of the car .
