Answer: Gas

Explanation:

Matter exists in three different phases, they are:

- Solid

the phase of matter with fixed shape, high density and non-moving particles that are held together by strong bonds. Example of solids are stone and chalk

- Liquid

the phase of matter with loosely held particles that are held together and take up the shape of the containing vessel. Examples of liquid are water, orange juice

- Gas

This is the phase of matter with no fixed shape or volume, rather its molecules travel rapidly and randomly within the containing vessel. Examples of gases are ammonia and oxygen

Thus, the phase of matter with no fixed shape or volume is known as gas

A 50.0-kg box is being pulled along a horizontal surface by means of a rope that exerts a force of 250 n at an angle of 32.0° ab

Phoenix [80]

According to Newton's second law, the resultant of the forces acting on the box is equal to the product between its mass and its acceleration:
$\sum F = ma$ (1)

we are only concerned about the horizontal direction, so there are only two forces acting on the box in this direction:
- the horizontal component of the force exerted by the rope, which is equal to
$F_x = F cos \theta = (250N)(\cos 32.0^{\circ} )=212.0 N$
- the frictional force, acting in the opposite direction, which is equal to
$F_f = \mu mg=(0.350)(50.0 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=171.7 N$

By applying Newton's law (1), we can calculate the acceleration of the box:
$F_x - F_f = ma$
$a= \frac{F_x - F_f}{m}= \frac{212.0 N-171.7 N}{50.0 kg} =0.81 m/s^2$

How does deformation by drawing of a semicrystalline polymer affect its tensile strength?

Elenna [48]

This effect is explained by increased chain entanglements at higher molecular weights. Increasing the degree of crystallinity of a semicrystalline polymer leads to an enhancement of the tensile strength. Deformation by drawing increases the tensile strength of a semicrystalline polymer.
