Answer:
C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added
Explanation:
The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.
Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.
- Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
- As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
- They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
- Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
- Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
- This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas
Linear momentum is the product of mass and velocity. In this case, it is simply:
v = initial velocity of launch of the stone = 12 m/s
θ = angle of the velocity from the horizontal = 30
Consider the motion of the stone along the vertical direction taking upward direction as positive and down direction as negative.
v₀ = initial velocity along vertical direction = v Sinθ = 12 Sin30 = 6 m/s
a = acceleration of the stone = - 9.8 m/s²
t = time of travel = 4.8 s
Y = vertical displacement of stone = vertical height of the cliff = ?
using the kinematics equation
Y = v₀ t + (0.5) a t²
inserting the values
Y = 6 (4.8) + (0.5) (- 9.8) (4.8)²
Y = - 84.1 m
hence the height of the cliff comes out to be 84.1 m
Electromagnetic radiation are represented in waves. Each type of wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between two peaks in a wave is called the wavelength. This value is equal to the speed of light divided by the frequency.
Wavelength = c/f
Wavelength = 3x10^8 / <span>5.42x10^15
</span><span>Wavelength = 5.54 x 10^-8 m = 55.35 nm</span>
