Answer:

Gases are easily compressed. We can see evidence of this in Table 1 in Thermal Expansion of Solids and Liquids, where you will note that gases have the largest coefficients of volume expansion. The large coefficients mean that gases expand and contract very rapidly with temperature changes. In addition, you will note that most gases expand at the same rate, or have the same β. This raises the question as to why gases should all act in nearly the same way, when liquids and solids have widely varying expansion rates.

The answer lies in the large separation of atoms and molecules in gases, compared to their sizes, as illustrated in Figure 2. Because atoms and molecules have large separations, forces between them can be ignored, except when they collide with each other during collisions. The motion of atoms and molecules (at temperatures well above the boiling temperature) is fast, such that the gas occupies all of the accessible volume and the expansion of gases is rapid. In contrast, in liquids and solids, atoms and molecules are closer together and are quite sensitive to the forces between them.

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

transferred

Energy

Explanation:

Energy is the ability to change the state of bringing about a work leading to movement or generating electromagnetic radiation. There are actually many forms of energy. So, kinetic energy is a form of energy related to the movement of a body. The combustion, in turn, retrieves the potential energy chemical contained in fuels. Solar panels capture light energy to transform it into electrical energy.
