Which phase of matter is made up of particles that are packed relatively close together, with an indefinite shape but a definite

volume? gas liquid plasma solid?
Physics
1 answer:
Bezzdna [24]3 years ago
5 0

property of gas

gas molecules are very loosely bonded with each other so the force between the molecules is very weak

Due to this weak force the molecules of gas can attain any shape and any volume.

So gas moles have no finite shape and no finite volume

Property of Solids

Solids are tightly packed and having very strong bond between the molecules

If all molecules are tightly bonded then they have always a finite shape and finite volume so in this case we can not change the volume or shape of the solids as it is fixed.

Property of Liquids

Liquid molecules are moderately bonded together and since the force is more than the force between the gas molecules so liquids have finite volume but indefinite shape

liquid attains the shape of the container but its volume is fixed

So in above all examples Liquid is correct answer

dybincka [34]

Here we can say that rate of flow must be constant

so here we will have

A_1v_1 = 18 A_2v_2

now we know that

A_1 = 1 cm^2

A_2 = 0.4 cm^2

now from above equation

1 cm^2 v_1 = 18(0.400 cm^2)v_2

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = \frac{1}{18\times 0.4}

\frac{v_2}{v_1} = 0.14

so velocity will reduce by factor 0.14

(a) Calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun.
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<h2>a)Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun is 274.21 m/s²</h2><h2>b) Factor of increase in weight is 27.95</h2>

Explanation:

a) Acceleration due to gravity

                      g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

 Here we need to find acceleration due to gravity of Sun,

                G = 6.67259 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

    Mass of sun, M = 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg

    Radius of sun, r = 6.957 x 10⁸ m

Substituting,

                g=\frac{6.67259\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{(6.957\times 10^8)^2}\\\\g=274.21m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun = 274.21 m/s²

b) Acceleration due to gravity in earth = 9.81 m/s²

   Ratio of gravity = 274.21/9.81 = 27.95

   Weight = mg

  Factor of increase in weight = 27.95

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE A mad scientist places massive amounts of charge on basketball sized aluminum balls. The charge on the ball
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

4.2 x 10⁷N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Charge on ball:

             q₁  = 3C

              q₂ = 14C

Distance between balls  = 9000m

Unknown:

Force acting on the two balls

Solution:

The force experienced by the two charges is given by coulombs law. It is mathematically expressed as;

                      F  = \frac{k q_{1} q_{2} }{r^{2} }

where k  = 9 x 10⁹Nm²/C²

           q is the charges

             r is the distance

Input the variables and solve;

                 

        F  = \frac{9 x 10^{9} x 3 x 14 }{9000}  = 4.2 x 10⁷N

Suppose that you hear a clap of thunder 16 s after seeing the associated lightning strike. How far are you from the lightning st
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

d=5.376km

Explanation:

Since <em>light is so fast</em> we can assume no time passes between the lightning strikes and we observe it. We want to know then how far away did the strike occur for the sound to take 16s to reach our ears. Since the definition of velocity tells us that v=d/t, we can write d=vt=(336m/s)(16s)=5376m=5.376km
