Answer

4.volatile

Explanation

Volatile substances are substances that are can evaporate easily. The chemical definition of volatile substance is one that can boil at low temperatures and change from liquid to gas easily.

From choices given in the question, the correct answer is 4.volatile

The answer to this question is that non metals are volatile. Volatile means evaporating easily. Non metals have the characteristics and properties of being brittle and poor conductors of heat and electricity. Non metals are also good oxidizing agents and physically they may be in liquid, solid or gas state. Examples of non metals are carbon, sulfur, argon, neon, and hydrogen.

Suppose you were digging a well into saturated sediments. Why is the sediment’s permeability an important factor in deciding whe

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

The importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.

Explanation:

When digging a well into saturated sediments, the possibility of the sediment with either little saturation or full saturation being able to provide steady water supply will be limited by how permeable it is. Now, the importance of the sediments permeability is that if it is permeable, water will flow easily through the sediment and thereby produce a very good supply of water for the well.

A mass M is attached to an ideal massless spring. When this system is set in motion with amplitude A, it has a period T. What is

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The period of the motion will still be equal to T.

Explanation:

for a system with mass = M

attached to a massless spring.

If the system is set in motion with an amplitude (distance from equilibrium position) A

and has period T

The equation for the period T is given as

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{M}{k} }$

where k is the spring constant

If the amplitude is doubled, the distance from equilibrium position to the displacement is doubled.

Increasing the amplitude also increases the restoring force. An increase in the restoring force means the mass is now accelerated to cover more distance in the same period, so the restoring force cancels the effect of the increase in amplitude. Hence, increasing the amplitude has no effect on the period of the mass and spring system.

Easy ! EVERY element and every compound melts, then boils and becomes a gas, if you heat it to a high enough temperature. That includes iron, gold, water, salt, glass, almost any substance.
