Answer

Liquid

Explanation

There are four states of matter. Gas, liquids, plasma and solids.

Solids has a definite shape.

Gas and plasma has no definite volume.

Liquids are made up of very small vibrating particles called molecules that are held together by intermolecular forces. This makes the liquid to have a definite volume and no definite shape.

Liquids are ideally incompressible, so their volume barely changes. They also adapt to whichever shape.

What is the best definition for a minor character

sergejj [24]

Minor characters. These are the other characters in a story. They are not as important as the major characters, but still play a large part in the story. Their actions help drive the story forward. They may impact the decisions the protagonist or antagonist make, either helping or interfering with the conflict.

Suppose you have a 120-kg wooden crate resting on a wood floor. (a) what maximum force can you exert horizontally on the crate w

sergij07 [2.7K]

According the attached picture so we can assume that :

The coefficient of friction wood on wood are:

static friction μs = 0.5

dynamic friction μk = 0.2

a)The answer is:

F= 588.6 N

The explanation:

The maximum force you can exert horizontally on the crate without moving it is equal:

Fsmax = μs * M * g

when μs is the static friction

and M i she mass

g is the gravitational force by substituted:

Fsmax = 0.5 * 120Kg * 9.81 m/s2

= 588.6 N

when F= Fsmax

So the answer is F = 588.6 N

b)The answer is:

a= 2.943 m/s2

The explanation:

Fsmax is the force pushing the block , and there is a force of friction trying to stop the block .

So Fk = μk * N

when Fk = force of kinetic friction

μk = coefficient of kinetic friction of wood on wood

N= Normal force by substitution:

Fk= 0.2 * 120k *9.81 m/s2 = 235.44 N

so F = Fsmax - Fk

588.6 - 235.44 = 353.16 N

when F = m*a

so 353.16 = 120Kg * a

so a ( the acceleration) = 353.16/120kg

= 2.943 m/s2

If an electric circuit has 30ohms and 10amps. How many volts the battery voltmeter should read?

Degger [83]

Answer:

The battery voltmeter should read 300 Volt

Explanation:

Ohm's Law

It states that the current through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage applied to it and inversely proportional to the resistance of the conductor. This relationship can be written as

$\displaystyle I=\frac{V}{R}$

Solving for V

V=IR

The electric circuit has a resistance of 30 ohms and carries a current of I=10 A, thus the voltage is:

V = 10 A * 30 Ohm

V = 300 Volt

The battery voltmeter should read 300 Volt

A +0.2 μC charge is at some point P in an electric field. Part A What happens if that charge is replaced by a +0.4 μC charge?

anyanavicka [17]

Explanation:

Since, the magnitude of charge becomes twice from 0.2 μC to 0.4 μC, the magnitude of force experienced will also double as

Force F =EQ

F∝Q

Since, Q is doubled , Force experienced by charge will also double.

This force will be force of repulsion since the charges are positive.
