The so-called "terminal velocity" is the fastest that something can fall
through a fluid. Even though there's a constant force pulling it through,
the friction or resistance of plowing through the surrounding substance
gets bigger as the speed grows, so there's some speed where the resistance
is equal to the pulling force, and then the falling object can't go any faster.
A few examples:
-- the terminal velocity of a sky-diver falling through air,
-- the terminal velocity of a pecan falling through honey,
-- the terminal velocity of a stone falling through water.
It's not possible to say that "the terminal velocity is ----- miles per hour".
If any of these things changes, then the terminal velocity changes too:
-- weight of the falling object
-- shape of the object
-- surface texture (smoothness) of the object
-- density of the surrounding fluid
-- viscosity of the surrounding fluid .
Answer
A thin atmosphere does not supply much oxygen, and the heat from the sun would evaporate it, because mercury is close to the sun.
Answer:
B) boiling point
Explanation:
The movement of the particles causes the shape of the liquid to change. The liquid will flow and fill to the lowest part of the container, in the shape of the container
But the volume does not change. The limited amount of space between the particles means that the liquid has only very limited compressibility.
Answer:
Increase the charge of one particle by a factor of 16
