Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?

Physics
1 answer:
SashulF [63]3 years ago
8 0

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease.  That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water ! 

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way.   That is, it shrinks and occupies
less
volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !

Distance = (1/2) (acceleration) (time)²

1.4m = (0.835 m/s²) (time)²

(time)² = (1.4/0.835) s²

What is the net charge of a metal ball if there are 21,749 extra electrons in it?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

Q=3.47\times 10^{-15}\ C

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of extra electrons, n = 21749

We need to find the net charge on the metal ball. Let Q is the net charge.

We know that the charge on an electron is q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

To find the net charge if there are n number of extra electrons is :

Q = n × q

Q=21749\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Q=3.47\times 10^{-15}\ C

So, the net charge on the metal ball is 3.47\times 10^{-15}\ C. Hence, this is the required solution.
