Answer: A) As the marshmallow was heated the particles moved faster increasing its volume.

Explanation: When heat is supplied to the marshmallows, the kinetic energy of the marshmallows increase and thus they start moving randomly and thus the molecules occupy more volume and volume increases.

As we know kinetic energy is directly related to temperature, thus as temperature is increased, the kinetic energy of the molecules also increase.

K.E=\frac{3}{2}RT

R = gas constant

T= temperature

Why does a force perpendicular to an objects velocity change the direction of the velocity but not its magnitude
inna [77]

Answer:

According to your question although I think an object undergoing uniform circular motion is moving with a constant speed. Nevertheless, it is accelerating due to its change in direction. The direction of the acceleration is inwards,therefore a force perpendicular to an objects velocity change the direction of the velocity but not its magnitude.

1. On each of your equipotential maps, draw some electric field lines with arrow heads indicating the direction of the field. (H
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The angle between the electric field lines and the equipotential surface is 90 degree.

Explanation:

The equipotential surfaces are the surface on which the electric potential is same. The work done in moving a charge from one point to another on an equipotential surface is always zero.

The electric field lines are always perpendicular to the equipotential surface.

As

dV = \overrightarrow{E} . d\overrightarrow{r}\\\\

For equipotential surface, dV = 0 so

0 = \overrightarrow{E} . d\overrightarrow{r}\\\\

The dot product of two non zero vectors is zero, if they are perpendicular to each other.
