In terms of energy the ice absorbs energy causing the molecules of water to have more kinetic and potential energy, changing their configuration from a solid to a liquid.

When the ice melts, it changes from a solid state to a liquid state.

When it is heated, the kinetic energy of the molecules that compose it, increases, the energy that the ice received, is transformed into potential energy and the content of kinetic energy stays constant. This causes a variation in the order of the ice molecules, which have a fixed position when the matter is in solid state.

Big Ben, a large artifact in England, has a mass of 1x10^8 kilograms and the Empire State Building 1x10^9 kilograms. The distanc

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The force, exerted by Big Ben on the Empire State Building is 2.66972 × 10⁻⁷ N

Explanation:

The question relates to the force of gravity experienced between two bodies

The given parameters are;

The mass of Big Ben, M₁ = 1 × 10⁸ kg

The mass of the Empire State Building, M₂ = 1 × 10⁹ kg

The distance between the two Big Ben and the Empire State Building, r = 5,000,000 meters

By Newton's Law of gravitation, we have;

$F=G \times \dfrac{M_{1} \times M_{2}}{r^{2}}$

Where;

F = The force exerted by Big Ben on the Empire State Building and vice versa

G = The universal gravitational constant = 6.67430 × 10⁻¹¹ N·m²/kg²

M₁, M₂, and r are the given parameters

By plugging in the values of the parameters and the constant into the equation for Newton's Law of gravitation, we have;

$F=6.67430 \times 10^{-11} \times \dfrac{1 \times 10^8 \times 1 \times 10^9}{(5,000,000)^{2}} = 2.66972 \times 10^{-7}$

The force, 'F', exerted by Big Ben on the Empire State Building is F = 2.66972 × 10⁻⁷ N.

Gauss's law: Group of answer choices can always be used to calculate the electric field. relates the electric field throughout s

kvasek [131]

Answer:

relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

Explanation:

Gauss Law states that overall electric flux of a closed surface is equivalent right to charge enclosed which is divided by the permittivity. In other words Gauss Law stress that

net electric flux that pass through an hypothetical closed surface is equivalent to overall electric charge present within that closed surface.

The Gauss law can be expressed mathematically as

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Q = total charge within the surface,

ε0 = the electric constant
