Because they have no dignified shape they take on the shape of whate ever container they are in and when you pour in out it can't really take any shape except tho lay flat on the table. and solids do not flow because they have a dignified shape. hope it helps!

The reason that solids are not able to move freely is because their structure and "lack of" energy they stay together from it mutual bonds. Liquids are able to move freely because they are moving ever so slightly and there bonds are weaker than of a solid, allowing the liquid molecules to slid past each other.

A charge Q is distributed uniformly on a non-conducting ring of radius R and mass M. The ring is dropped from rest from a height
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Check below for the explanation

Explanation:

Since it is stated that the ring is dropped from a height, h, through a non uniform magnetic field, two kinds of force will act on the ring, namely:

  • A magnetic force (that is non uniform since the field is  non uniform)
  • Gravitational force

A certain amount of torque is provided by the non uniform magnetic force on the ring while the force gravity pulls it down. Due to the downward pull by the force of gravity on the ring and the torque acting on it as a result of the non uniform magnetic force, the ring begins to rotate.

What technique is used by scientists to determine which of several explanations is the best explanation
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a theory.

When a comet comes close to the Sun, what happens to it that makes it bright and easier to see?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Explanation:

Comet is made by dust particles, icy particles, gases etc.

A comet has a fixed time to complete a revolution around the sun.

As a comet comes nearer to the sun, due to the heat of the sun the vapour and the icy particles becomes gases and due to the radial pressure of energy od sun, we observe a tail of comet which has vapours mainly. SI the comet is visible easily.

A baseball m=.34kg is spun vertically on a massless string of length l=.52m. the string can only support a tension of tmax=9.9n
larisa86 [58]
<span>4.5 m/s This is an exercise in centripetal force. The formula is F = mv^2/r where m = mass v = velocity r = radius Now to add a little extra twist to the fun, we're swinging in a vertical plane so gravity comes into effect. At the bottom of the swing, the force experienced is the F above plus the acceleration due to gravity, and at the top of the swing, the force experienced is the F above minus the acceleration due to gravity. I will assume you're capable of changing the velocity of the ball quickly so you don't break the string at the bottom of the loop. Let's determine the force we get from gravity. 0.34 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 3.332 kg m/s^2 = 3.332 N Since we're getting some help from gravity, the force that will break the string is 9.9 N + 3.332 N = 13.232 N Plug known values into formula. F = mv^2/r 13.232 kg m/s^2 = 0.34 kg V^2 / 0.52 m 6.88064 kg m^2/s^2 = 0.34 kg V^2 20.23717647 m^2/s^2 = V^2 4.498574938 m/s = V Rounding to 2 significant figures gives 4.5 m/s The actual obtainable velocity is likely to be much lower. You may handle 13.232 N at the top of the swing where gravity is helping to keep you from breaking the string, but at the bottom of the swing, you can only handle 6.568 N where gravity is working against you, making the string easier to break.</span>
