Chemical change:  a reaction/event where the chemicals/elements present before the change are NOT the same molecules present after the change.
For example, combustion reactions such as the burning of wood or rubbing alcohol are examples of chemical change. The reactants before the combustion of rubbing alcohol are CH3O (rubbing alcohol) and O2 oxygen (oxygen). The molecules present after the combustion reaction are CO2 (carbon dioxide) and H2O (water vapor).

Physical Change: a change in structure or state of a substance but, after the change the material is the same material that we started with. One example would be breaking a glass bottle by dropping it. The glass is now in smaller pieces than when we started, but the glass molecules are still glass molecules.

How should the distance, D, between two point charges, q1 and q2, be changed to double their electric potential energy
Licemer1 [7]

The electrostatic potential energy, U, of one point charge q at position d in the presence of an electric field E is defined as the negative of the work W done by the electrostatic force to bring it from the reference position d to that position

u \:  =  \:  \frac{kq1q2}{d}

Thus, to double the electric potential energy U we need to reduce the distance of separation by half (1/2) because they are inversely proportion

The chart below shows the average surface temperature or temperature range for each of the eight planets.
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

A) Earth and the other inner planets have higher average surface temperatures than the outer planets.

Explanation:

the earth and the other inner planets have higher average surface temperatures than the outer planets.

The reason for this response is due to the distance between the sun and the respective planet, the source of energy generation is the sun and the only way in which the temperature increase of each planet is guaranteed is by radiation, the further away a planet is from its star, its temperature will decrease. Although it is also important to highlight the atmospheric composition of the planet if this planet in its stratosphere has high density clouds that do not allow the entry of solar radiation, the temperature of the planet's surface will not increase, independent of the distance from the sun, but these are more complex cases where specialists in that area enter to perform a study in detail.

In which of the following conditions would there be the most resistance?
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

A) A warm wire

Explanation:

A warm wire has the most resistance. Heating the metal wire causes atoms to vibrate more, which in turn makes it more difficult for the electrons to flow, increasing resistance. Heating the wire increases resistivity.
