why do solids keep their shape and volume why do liquids keep only volume and why do gases not keep either shape or volume

Solids always have definite shape and definite volume because their particles are packed together. Liquids have a definite volume but not definite shape, because their particles still kinda tight but able to move around, and gases don’t have a definite shape nor volume, because their particles are crazy and go everywhere

What happens to the ions when the drain is turned off? please help :] ❤️
kkurt [141]

Answer:

In a long channel MOSFET, the width of the pinch-off region is assumed small relative to the length of the channel. Thus, neither the length nor the voltage across the inversion layer change beyond the pinch-off, resulting in a drain current independent of drain bias. Consequently, the drain current saturates.

Determine the AMOUNT OF NO2, LIMITING REACTANT, AND THE AMOUNT AND NAME OF EXCESS REACTANT.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

balanced equation mole ratio 5 2 mol NO/1 mol O2

10.00 g O2 3 1 mol O2/32.00 g O2 5 0.3125 mol O2

20.00 g NO 3 1 mol NO/30.01 g NO 5 0.6664 mol NO

actual mole ratio 5 0.6664 mol NO/0.3125 mol O2 5 2.132 mol NO/1.000 mol O2

Because the actual mole ratio of NO:O2 is larger than the balanced equation mole

ratio of NO:O2, there is an excess of NO; O2 is the limiting reactant.

Mass of NO used 5 0.3125 mol O2 3 2 mol NO/1 mol O2 5 0.6250 mol NO

0.6250 mol NO 3 30.01 g NO/1 mol NO 5 18.76 g NO

Mass of NO2 produced 5 0.6250 mol NO2 3 46.01 g NO2/1 mol NO2 5 28.76 g NO2

Excess NO 5 20.00 g NO 2 18.76 g NO 5 1.24 g N

How would a collapsing universe affect light emitted from clusters and superclusters? A. Light would acquire a blueshift. B. Lig
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Choice A: Light would acquire a blueshift.

Explanation:

When a universe collapses, clusters of stars start to move towards each other. There are two ways to explain why light from these stars will acquire a blueshift.

Stars move toward each other; Frequency increases due to Doppler's Effect.

The time period t of a beam of light is the same as the time between two consecutive peaks. If \lambda is the wavelength of the beam, and both the source and observer are static, the time period T will be the same as the time it takes for light travel the distance of one \lambda (at the speed of light in vacuum, c).

\displaystyle t = \frac{\lambda}{c}.

Frequency f is the reciprocal of time period. Therefore

\displaystyle f = \frac{1}{t} = \frac{c}{\lambda}.

Light travels in vacuum at a constant speed. However, in a collapsing universe, the star that emit the light keeps moving towards the observer. Let the distance between the star and the observer be d when the star sent the first peak.

  • Distance from the star when the first peak is sent: d.
  • Time taken for the first peak to arrive: \displaystyle t_1 =\frac{d}{c}.

The star will emit its second peak after a time of. Meanwhile, the distance between the star and the observer keeps decreasing. Let v be the speed at which the star approaches the observer. The star will travel a distance of v\cdot t before sending the second peak.

  • Distance from the star when the second peak is sent: d - v\cdot t.
  • Time taken for the second peak to arrive: \displaystyle t_2 =t + \frac{d - v\cdot t}{c}.

The period of the light is t when emitted from the star. However, the period will appear to be shorter than t for the observer. The time period will appear to be:

\begin{aligned}\displaystyle t' &= t_2 - t_1\\ &= t + \frac{d - v\cdot t}{c} - \frac{d}{c}\\&= t + (\frac{d}{c} - \frac{v\cdot t}{c}) -\frac{d}{c}\\&= t - \frac{v\cdot t}{c} \end{aligned}.

The apparent time period t' is smaller than the initial time period, t. Again, the frequency of a beam of light is inversely proportional to its period. A smaller time period means a higher frequency. Colors at the high-frequency end of the visible spectrum are blue and violet. The color of the beam of light will shift towards the blue end of the spectrum when observed than when emitted. In other words, a collapsing universe will cause a blueshift on light from distant stars.

The Space Fabric Shrinks; Wavelength decreases as the space is compressed.

When the universe collapses, one possibility is that clusters of stars move towards each other. Alternatively, the space fabric might shrink, which will also bring the clusters toward each other.

It takes time for light from a distant cluster to reach an observer on the ground. The space fabric keeps shrinking while the beam of light makes its way through the space. The wavelength of the beam will shrink at the same rate. The wavelength of the beam of light will be shorter by the time the beam arrives at its destination.

Colors at the short-wavelength end of the visible spectrum are blue and violet. Again, the color of the light will shift towards the blue end of the spectrum. The conclusion will be the same: a collapsing universe will cause a blueshift on light from distant stars.
