It is a force do to that way that it pulls objects down and a force is something that pushes or pulls an object so gravity is a force

Why is the formation of hydrogen bonds between water molecules categorized as cohesion
marishachu [46]

Answer: Because of the polarity of water molecules

Molecular <u>cohesion</u> is the attraction that molecules have for others of their same type. Depending on the intensity of this attraction, a substance is in a solid, liquid or gaseous state.

In this sense, water (H_{2}O) can stick to itself through hydrogen bonds, because a water molecule consists of 2 hydrogen atoms attached to 1 oxygen atom.

The oxygen atom tends to monopolize more electrons and keeps them away from hydrogen. Then, it can be said that a water molecule will have a negative side (oxygen) and a positive side (hydrogen).

<u>Thanks to this polarity</u>, water molecules can stick together with the formation of<u> hydrogen bonds</u> to attract a partial positive charge of hydrogen and a more electronegative atom, such as oxygen.

check the state of polarization of the room lights by looking at the room lights through one of the polarizers and rotating it t
maria [59]

Answer:

No, there wasn't any variation in the light intensity at 360 degrees.

During the rotation, rotating through an angle of 90° gradually brought the intensity to a maximum. Rotating by another 90° degrees brought the intensity to a minimum at some point. Rotating by another 90° brought it back to its maximum and then another 90° brought it to its initial intensity.

From the photoelectric effect we learn that A. a blue photon has less energy than a red photon B. a blue photon has equal energy
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: E. None of the above

Explanation: The energy of a photon is given by the formula below.

E=hf or E = hc/λ

E = energy, h = planck constant, c= speed of light and

λ= wavelength.

From E=hf we can see that energy is directly proportional to frequency since h is a constant, this implies that as we move up the visible light spectrum, red light has the least frequency this accounting for the lowest energy while violet has the largest energy accounting for a very high energy.

Blue light is higher in the spectrum than red light.

This implies that blue light has more energy than red.

Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum which implies that they all travel with the same speed of a constant value ( speed of light = 3* 10^8 m/s).

Thus in conclusion, blue light has more energy that red light but they both travel with the same speed.

This point nullifies the options thus making none of it correct.

I need to name 20 gases in physics
Oliga [24]
Easy ! EVERY element and every compound melts, then boils and becomes a gas, if you heat it to a high enough temperature. That includes iron, gold, water, salt, glass, almost any substance.
