If water didnt expand when it froze then it would be more dense so ice would sink. If ice sunk then it would cause a lot of ocean life to die because of the cold and water levels to rise more.

Yes I agree.

The very basic fundamental to remember here is that the ice when expands causes the floating of itself on top of water. Thus, if ice stops expanding, it will not float on the top of water body and thus would sink and may cause the freezing additional water in the water bodies. This could happen in the Antarctic , Arctic and all cold regions. Rivers may stop flowing in cold regions as they all will be frozen and also the survival of species will become difficult

6. A car, 1110 kg, is traveling down a horizontal road at 20.0 m/s when it locks up its brakes. The coefficient of friction betw
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

x=22.65m

Explanation:

We have an uniformly accelerated motion, with a negative acceleration. Thus, we use the kinematic equations to calculate the distance will it take to bring the car to a stop:

v_f^2=v_0^2-2ax\\\frac{0^2-v_0^2}{-2a}=x\\x=\frac{v_0^2}{2a}

The acceleration can be calculated using Newton's second law:

\sum F_x:F_f=ma\\\sum F_y:N=mg

Recall that the maximum force of friction is defined as F_f=\mu N. So, replacing this:

\mu N=ma\\\mu mg=ma\\a=\mu g\\a=0.901(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\a=8.83\frac{m}{s^2}

Now, we calculate the distance:

x=\frac{v_0^2}{2a}\\x=\frac{(20\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(8.83\frac{m}{s^2})}\\x=22.65m

What is matter explain verifly​
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

<u>Matter is a substance that has inertia and occupies physical space. According to modern physics, matter consists of various types of particles, each with mass and size.Matter can exist in several states, also called phases. The three most common states are known as solid, liquid and gas.</u><u>Matter is the Stuff Around You</u><u> </u><u>o</u><u>r</u><u> </u><u>Atoms and compounds are all made of very small parts of matter. Those atoms go on to build the things you see and touch every day. Matter is defined as anything that has mass and takes up space (it has volume).</u><u>Solid ice, water and steam are few examples of matter touched in everyday life. Subatomic particles are also considered as matter.</u>

The potential (relative to infinity) at the midpoint of a square is 3.0 V when a point charge of Q is located at one of the corn
tester [92]

Answer:

12.0 V

Explanation:

Data :

Potential difference due to a single charge (+Q), E = 3.0 V

 

The Electric potential for the system of charges is given as:

E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}[\Sigma\frac{Q}{r}]

for single charge, E = 3.0 V = \frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}[\frac{Q}{r}]  ->eq(1)

And for 4 charges:

E=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_o}[4\frac{Q}{r}] -eq(2)

from eq(1) and (2) we have

E = 4 × 3.0 V = 12 V
