Answer:
light travels as a wave. but unlike sound waves or water waves, it doesn't need any matter or material to carry it's energy along
The water gets cold because the ice cube is endothermic. Which means it takes in heat. It takes the warmth from the water and melts the ice cube which the ice cube releases coldness which cools down the water.
Answer:
C) As a gas is heated, the pressure decreases.
Explanation:
From the choices given, the statement that "as a gas is heated, the pressure decreases is false".
When gases are heated, their molecules expands and the volume of the gas increases. In a fixed container, the pressure of the gases will also increases.
- Gases lack internal cohesion and very weak to no intermolecular forces binding them together.
- When they are subjected to heat, they gain more energy(kinetic energy) which causes them to begin to spread out.
- Thus, they take up even more space allowing volume to increase appreciably.
