The ability of solid rock to flow is called Plasticity.

Plasticity is the deformation of a solid mateial which resulted in non reversible changes of shape in response to applied force.

Another example of plasticity is when you bend metal through a forcer force to create an art or kitchen set

A/An _____ is described as a device used to store electrical energy, usually two conductors separated by an insulator.

Daniel [21]

Answer: A capacitor.

Explanation:

The capacitor is a passive element that is used in electronics to store electrical energy maintaining an electrical field. The simpler case of a capacitor is the parallel plates capacitor.

It consists of two parallel metal plates separated by a distance D, in this case, the air between the plates works as a dielectric, as the plates do not touch each other and are separated by a dielectric, the charge is stored in the surface plates.

There are a lot of other types of capacitors, the most used in actuality may be the cylindrical one, where instead of parallel plates, it uses two concentric cylinders, and the space between the cylinders is filled with a dielectric/insulator.

Answer: The total momentum before the docking maneuver is $mV_{1}+MV_{2}$ and after the docking maneuver is $(m+M) U$

Explanation:

Linear momentum $p$ (generally just called momentum) is defined as mass in motion and is given by the following equation:

$p=m.v$

Where $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ its velocity.

According to the conservation of momentum law:

"If two objects or bodies are in a closed system and both collide, the total momentum of these two objects before the collision $p_{i}$ will be the same as the total momentum of these same two objects after the collision $p_{f}$ ".
