Why can an object still be seen when it is at absolute zero?

1 answer:

6 0

As the temperature goes down, the chaotic motion (velocity) of atoms start decreasing. If the temperature hits the absolute zero (which, in reality, is impossible to achieve), the atoms of the body would freeze, making the body still and stiff. One thing to note here is that the atoms do not get destroyed when the temperature reaches the absolute zero. That is the reason why the object can still be seen when it is at absolute zero.

What do ocean waves and sound waves have in common?

Maksim231197 [3]

D. Both exhibit the same particle-to-particle interaction.Because disturbance is propagated with the help of particles. Other than this,[ light waves are electromagnetic waves. ocean waves and sound waves are mechanical waves. they are able to transfer energy. electromagnetic wave and ocean waves are transverse waves while sound waves are the longitudinal wave. they show wave properties: reflection, refraction, diffraction, interference, and plane-polarization. longitudinal waves such as sound waves cannot be plane-polarized]. The one in the box shows different examples of waves with their examples. Hope it helps.

Answer:

2,38kg

Explanation:

Mass in function of time can be found by the formula: $m_{(t)} =m_{0} e^{-kt}$ , where $m_{0}$ is the initial mass, t is the time and k is a constant.
