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.

What is an uncharged body? In physics (simple words)
andriy [413]

An uncharged body is a body that has equal magnitude of positive as well as negative charge on it. So as soon as some charged body is placed near it, the charged body induces negative charges on the uncharged body.

-What is the storm on Saturn called?
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

-the Great White Spot

-At least, you wouldn't be able to live on Saturn like you'd live on Earth, or perhaps even Mars. Saturn is what we call a “gas giant.” It is a planet made up most of hydrogen and helium. This means that there is no solid surface on Saturn, Well, that we know of, anyway. ... Saturn doesn't have any of that.

-Enceladus orbits the planet at a distance of about four Saturn radii, replenishing the torus with its jets of water. ... Saturn's atmosphere is known to contain traces of gaseous water in its deeper layers. A particular enigma has been the presence of water in its upper atmosphere.

-On the planet of the rings the atmosphere holds a treasure: real showers made from diamonds. What makes precious stones rain down on this planet? On Saturn, the combination of methane with storms produces a shower of diamonds. ... About 10 million tons of diamond rain down on Saturn each year

-A unique feature of Saturn is that it is the least dense planet in the Solar System. Although Saturn may have a dense, solid core, the large gaseous outer layer of the planet makes its average density a mere 687 kg/m3. As result, Saturn is lighter than water.

-Viewed from Earth, Saturn has an overall hazy yellow-brown appearance. The surface that is seen through telescopes and in spacecraft images is actually a complex of cloud layers decorated by many small-scale features, such as red, brown, and white spots, bands, eddies, and vortices, that vary over a fairly short time.

-hexagon

-58,232 km

-0d 10h 42m

-Saturn's hexagon is a persistent approximately hexagonal cloud pattern around the north pole of the planet Saturn, located at about 78°N.

-Dark matter is composed of particles that do not absorb, reflect, or emit light, so they cannot be detected by observing electromagnetic radiation. Dark matter is material that cannot be seen directly. We know that dark matter exists because of the effect it has on objects that we can observe directly.

-Dark Energy is a hypothetical form of energy that exerts a negative, repulsive pressure, behaving like the opposite of gravity. ... Dark Energy makes up 72% of the total mass-energy density of the universe. The other dominant contributor is Dark Matter, and a small amount is due to atoms or baryonic matter.

-It's possible that before the Big Bang, the universe was an infinite stretch of an ultrahot, dense material, persisting in a steady state until, for some reason, the Big Bang occured. This extra-dense universe may have been governed by quantum mechanics, the physics of the extremely small scale, Carroll said

Moving water, like that of a river, carries sediment as it moves along its bed. The faster the water flows, the more sediment th
storchak [24]

It describes the river water going faster and slower which affects the force on the sediment particles. The heavier particles settle due to smaller force from slower water. The answer is C) The greater the force of the water, the faster the particle accelerates.

Write the ordered pair that represents vec yz .Then find the magnitude of vec yz Y(- 4, 12), (1, 19)
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Y=(-4,12)

Z=(1,19)

We have to find the ordered pair which represents the vector YZ and magnitude of vector YZ.

Vector YZ=Z-Y=<1,19>-<-4,12>

Vector YZ=<5,7>

Magnitude of vector r

r=xi+yj

\mid r\mid=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

Using the formula

\vec{YZ}=\sqrt{5^2+7^2}

\vec{YZ}=\sqrt{25+49}=\sqrt{74} units
