A) liquid = low; solid = medium; gas = high.
B) solid = low; liquid = medium; gas = high.
C) liquid = low; gas = medium; solid = high.
D) gas = low; liquid = medium; solid = high.

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In a solid, molecules are held together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction. As a result, they are unable to move from their initial place but they can vibrate at their mean position.

Hence, in solid substances the molecules have low kinetic energy.

Whereas in liquids, the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Due to which they are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have medium kinetic energy.

In gases, the molecules are held by weak Vander waal forces. Hence, they have high kinetic energy due to which they move rapidly from one place to another leading to more number of collisions.

Hence, gases are able to expand more rapidly as compared to liquids.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options solid = low; liquid = medium; gas = high, combination of the state of matter and the corresponding dryer speed is correct.

18. Two objects, X and Y. accelerate from rest with the same constant acceleration. Object X accelerates for
zvonat [6]

Answer:

e. Object X has traveled four times as far as object Y.

Explanation:

The distance covered by an object in uniform accelerated motion is given by:

d=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

The two objects in the problem have same initial velocity, u = 0 (since they start from rest), so we can rewrite the equation as

d=\frac{1}{2}at^2

We see that the distance covered is proportional to the square of the time. In this problem, the two objects X and Y have same acceleration, but object X accelerates for twice the time: since d \propto t^2, this means that the distance covered by X will be 2^2 = 4 times higher that the distance covered by object Y.

Derive the following equations of motion
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

___________________________________

<h3>a. Let us assume a body has initial velocity 'u' and it is subjected to a uniform acceleration 'a' so that the final velocity 'v' after a time interval 't'. Now, By the definition of acceleration, we have:</h3>

a =  \frac{v - u}{t}  \\ or \: at = v - u \\ v = u + at \:

It is first equation of motion.

___________________________________

<h3>b. Let us assume a body moving with an initial velocity 'u'. Let it's final body 'v' after a time interval 't' and the distance travelled by the body becomes 's' then we already have,</h3>

v = u + at...........(i) \\ s =  \frac{u + v}{2}  \times t.........(ii)

Putting the value of v from the equation (i) in equation (ii), we have,

s=  \frac{u + (u + at)}{2}  \times t \:  \: \\ or \: s =  \frac{(2u + at)t}{2}  \\ or \: s =  \frac{2ut + a {t}^{2} }{2}  \\ s = ut +  \frac{1}{2} a {t}^{2}

It is third equation of motion.

________________________________

<h3>c. Let us assume a body moving with an initial velocity 'u'. Let it's final velocity be 'v' after a time and the distance travelled by the body be 's'. We already have,</h3>

v = u + at.....(i) \\ s =  \frac{u + v}{2}  \times t......(ii) \\

v = u + at \\ or \: at = v - u \\ t =  \frac{v - u}{a}

Putting the value of t from (i) in the equation (ii)

s =  \frac{u + v}{2}  \times  \frac{v - u}{a}  \\ or \: s =   \frac{ {v}^{2}  -  {u}^{2} }{2a}  \\ or \: 2as =  {v}^{2}  -  {u}^{2}  \\  {v}^{2}  =  {u}^{2}  + 2as

It is forth equation of motion.

If an object falls for 4 seconds, how fast is it going when it hits the ground?
MArishka [77]

Acceleration due to gravity is about 9.8 m/s²

So after every second, the speed increase by 9.8 m/s

After 1 second, the object would fall at a speed of 9.8 m/s

After 2 seconds the object would fall at a speed of 19.6 m/s

So after 4 seconds, the object is going to be at a speed of:

9.8 x 4 = 39.2 m/s

-------------------------------------------------

<u>Answer</u>

39.2 m/s
