<h3>Answer and explanation;</h3>

Melting point is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium. It is the temperature at which a solid changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
Boiling point is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure. It is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid into a gas.
The flash point of a flammable liquid or volatile liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air. At this temperature the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed.

Flashpoint mainly applies to volatile substances. It describes the lowest temperatures at which the vapors of the substance can ignite with the slightest spark. The melting point is the temperatures at which a substance changes phase from solid to liquid while the boiling point is the temperatures where a substance changes phase from liquid to gas.

dangina [55]

Answer:

Cheryl, Heather and Keaton all are correct.

Explanation:

Everything around you is made of matter and matter is anything that has mass and occupies space or in other words, anything which has volume is called matter.

Here, in the given example, Cheryl, Heather and Keaton all are correct because the mug, the hot chocolate which is inside the mug and the steam coming out of it, all have mass. Therefore, all are correct except for Mikayla.

two objects are thrown from the top of a tall building and experience no appreciable air resistance. one is thrown up and the ot

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The two objects are traveling at the same speed.

Explanation:

Neglecting air resistance, an object that is thrown up from the top of a tall building has the same speed as the second object thrown down from the top of the same tall building since the initial speed is the same.

The object thrown up is not traveling faster neither is the object thrown down traveling faster.

Therefore, the two objects will have the same speed when they hit the ground but their time of landing might be different.

Suppose I have a vector that is 7 units long and that makes an angle of +30 degrees from the positive x-axis. I want to add to t

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

sum of these two vectors is 6.06i+3.5j-3.5i+6.06j = 2.56i+9.56j

Explanation:

We have given first vector which has length of 7 units and makes an angle of 30° with positive x-axis

So x component of the vector $=7cos30^{\circ}=7\times 0.866=6.06$
