What is melting? when an ice cube turns from a solid to a liquid, the particles

Physics

Answer:

Melting is the breaking of bonds between particles (atoms) due to the increase in temperature (energy).

Explanation:

When elements are in solid form, it means that the conditions they are in do not allow particles to move much, which creates stable bonds (stable bonds as in, difficult to break) between atoms.  

                                                          ↓

When the temperature increases, this atoms gain more and more energy (which makes them move) until bonds break and the transition from solid to liquid begins.

Hope it helped,

The ice cube which was solid has turned into the liquid water because the air temperature is warmer than the freezers. ... Therefore the ice particles have enough energy to break apart (melt)into smaller particle arrangements.

What is the wavelength of a radar signal that has a frequency of 27 GHz? The speed of light is 3 × 108 m/s. Answer in units of m
marusya05 [52]

Explanation:

speed of light= c

wave length= L

frequency= f

c=Lf → L= c/f → L= 3 × 10⁸/ 27 × 10⁹ → L = 1/90 ≈ 0.011 m

Explain why the shortening velocity became slower as the load became heavier in this experiment. how well did the results compar
valkas [14]
<span>The shortening velocity refers to the speed of the contraction from the muscle shortening while lifting a load. Maximal shortening velocity is only attained with a minimal load. With a light load, the shortening velocity is at its Maximal shortening velocity. When the weight is heavy, the speed in which the muscle lifts the weight decreases in speed at a slower velocity.</span>

A 1400 kg wrecking ball hangs from a 20-m-long cable. the ball is pulled back until the cable makes an angle of 30.0 ∘ with the
anastassius [24]

From the geometry of the problem, the 20 m-long cable creates the hypotenuse of a right triangle, with the extended of the other two sides of size 20 m * cos(30 deg), which is around 17.3 m. Therefore, the ball has increased by 20 m - 17.3 m = 2.7 m. 

The potential energy will have altered by m*g*h, which is 1400 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 1.6 m , or about 37044 joules.
