Why do antoms move at different speeds depending pn weather they are in liqids or solids?

Liquid matter has atoms that move moderately freely; this is shown that whenever you pour water into a cup, it fills the shape.
Solids on the other hand, have atoms that basically don't move; thus is because the item is purely compact, and, for contrast, putting a rock in a cup wouldn't fill the shape of the cup, it would just lie there as it's original form.

Hope this helps!

A roller coaster travels around a vertical 8-m radius loop. Determine the speed at the top of the loop if the normal force exert
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

v=10m/sec

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Radius of vertical r= 8m

Force exerted by passengers is 1/4 of weight

Generally the net force acting on top of the roller coaster is give to be

F_N+Fg

where

F_N =forceof the normal

Fg= force due to gravity

Generally the net force is given to be FC(force towards center)

F_C =F_N + Fg

F_N =F_C -Fg

F_N=F_C-F_g

F_N=\frac{mv^2}{R} -mg

Mathematical we can now derive V

m_g + \frac{8m}{4}= \frac{mv^2}{8}

\frac{5mg}{4} =\frac{mv^2}{8}

v^2 =\frac{40*10}{4}

v=10m/sec

Therefore the speed of the roller coaster is given ton be v=10m/sec

Positive electric charge Q is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of an insulating sphere with radius R.From the express
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Vb = k Q / r        r <R

Vb = k q / R³ (R² - r²)    r >R

Explanation:

The electic potential is defined by

             ΔV = - ∫ E .ds

We calculate the potential in the line of the electric pipe, therefore the scalar product reduces the algebraic product

             VB - VA = - ∫ E dr

Let's substitute every equation they give us and we find out

r> R

           Va = - ∫ (k Q / r²) dr

           -Va = - k Q (- 1 / r)

We evaluate with it Va = 0 for r = infinity

          Vb = k Q / r        r <R

         

We perform the calculation of the power with the expression of the electric field that they give us

           Vb = - int (kQ / R3 r) dr

  We integrate and evaluate from the starting point r = R to the final point r <R

         Vb = ∫kq / R³ r dr

         Vb = k q / R³ (R² - r²)

This is the electric field in the whole space, the places of interest are r = 0, r = R and r = infinity

Two objects are dropped from rest from the same height. Object A falls through a distance during a time t, and object B falls th
UNO [17]

Answer:

Distance covered by B is 4 times distance covered by A

Explanation:

For an object in free fall starting from rest, the distance covered by the object in a time t is

s=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

s is the distance covered

g is the acceleration due to gravity

t is the time elapsed

In this problem:

- Object A falls through a distance s_A during a time t, so the distance covered by object A is

s_A=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

- Object B falls through a distance s_B during a time 2t, so the distance covered by object B is

s_B=\frac{1}{2}g(2t)^2 = 4(\frac{1}{2}gt^2)=4s_A

So, the distance covered by object B is 4 times the distance covered by object A.

If you are driving 80 km/h along a straight road and you look to the side for 2.1 s , how far do you travel during this inattent
ella [17]
Velocity = displacement / time

First, Always make sure that your units for things are the same. In this question, we are given time in seconds and hours. So, we need to make them all use 1 unit.

I will do seconds.

To convert 80km/h to m/s, divide by 3.6.

22.2222…. m/s = displacement / 2.1s

Multiply by 2.1s on both sides

46.6666……m = displacement

You travelled 47 meters.
