Answer:

Option B

The molecules in thermometer spread apart

Explanation:

The mercury within the thermometer spread apart leading to an increase in temperature reading in the thermometer. The spreading apart of mercury molecules is caused by an increase in kinetic energy of molecules and with time the increase in kinetic energy decreases making the reading to stop increasing hence constant.

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

There are actually three, Kepler's laws that is, of planetary motion: 1) every planet's orbit is an ellipse with the Sun at a focus; 2) a line joining the Sun and a planet sweeps out equal areas in equal times; and 3) the square of a planet's orbital period is proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its

What is the purpose of an experiment design?
Eddi Din [679]
An experimental design is used to assign variables for testing. In contrast to a control design where nothing is changed, the experimental design allows you to test various new inputs to see how they would vary from the original results.

What can always be said about a negatively-charged ion?
KiRa [710]

Answer: A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Explanation:

First, we know that the elementary negative charge is the electron, while the positive one is the proton. Such that both have the same charge in magnitude, but a different sign. Such that if we have the same number of electrons and protons in an atom, the charge of this atom will be neutral.

And an ion is an atom with a different number of electrons and protons, so the charge of the atom is not neutral.

Then if we have a negatively-charged ion, the charge of this atom is negative. Then we must have a larger number of electrons (the negative ones) than protons (the positive ones)

Then the correct option is:

A negatively-charged ion always has more electrons than protons

Select the correct answer.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

B. It is directly proportional to the source charge.

Explanation:

Gauss's law states that the total (net) flux of an electric field at points on a closed surface is directly proportional to the electric charge enclosed by that surface.

This ultimately implies that, Gauss's law relates the electric field at points on a closed surface to the net charge enclosed by that surface.

This electromagnetism law was formulated in 1835 by famous scientists known as Carl Friedrich Gauss.

Mathematically, Gauss's law is given by this formula;

ϕ = (Q/ϵ0)

Where;

ϕ is the electric flux.

Q represents the total charge in an enclosed surface.

ε0 is the electric constant.

Hence, the statement which is true of the electric field at a distance from the source charge is that it is directly proportional to the source charge.
