KiRa [710]3 years ago

Answer:

In the air

Explanation:

There are three states of matter:

- Solids: in solids, the particles are tightly bond together by strong intermolecular forces, so they cannot move freely - they can only vibrate around their fixed position

- Liquids: in liquids, particles are more free to move, however there are still some intermolecular forces keeping them close to each other

- Gases: in gases, particles are completely free to move, as the intermolecular forces between them are negligible

For this reason, it is generally easier to compress/expand the volume of a gas with respect to the volume of a liquid.

In this problem, we are comparing water (which is a liquid) with air (which is a gas). From what we said above, this means that the change in volume is larger in the air rather than in the water.

Juan amd kym have four samples of matter. They are observing and describing the properties of these samples. Which property will
TiliK225 [7]

Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:

--> if the substance has a definite shape,

-->if the substance has a definite volume

--> if it's tightly packed.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.

Matter can exist in the following states:

--> Solid state

--> liquid state or

--> Gaseous state.

The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:

--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.

--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.

--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.

From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.

A tennis racket hits a tennis ball with a force of F=at−bt2, where a = 1290 N/ms , b = 330 N/ms2 , and t is the time (in millise
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The resulting velocity of the ball after it hits the racket was of V= 51.6 m/s

Explanation:

m= 55.6 g = 0.0556 kg

t= 2.8 ms = 2.8 * 10⁻³ s

F= 1290 N/ms * t - 330 N/ms² * t²

F= 1024.8 N

F*t= m * V

V= F*t/m

V= 51.6 m/s

What is the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of itsthree engines can provide 100,000 n of force?
sergey [27]

The acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².

<h3>How to calculate acceleration?</h3>

The acceleration of a freight train can be calculated using the following formula:

Force = mass × acceleration

According to this question, a 600,000kg freight train can produce 100,000N of force. The acceleration is as follows:

100,000 = 600,000 × a

100,000 = 600,000a

a = 0.167m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of a 600,000 kg freight train, if each of its three engines can provide 100,000N of force is 0.167m/s².
