-- be as perfectly circular as possible,

-- have a period exactly equal to the Earth's rotation period ...
about 23 hours 56 minutes 4 seconds, not 24 hours.

Closing Summary Questions: Phases of Matter
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Particles in all states of matter are in constant motion and this is very rapid at room temperature. A rise in temperature increases the kinetic energy and speed of particles; it does not weaken the forces between them. The particles in solids vibrate about fixed positions; even at very low temperatures.

Even with all of these state changes, it is important to remember that the substance stays the same—it is still water, which consists of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom. Changing states of matter are only physical changes; the chemical properties of the matter stays the same regardless of its physical state!

When celery is placed in a glass of pure water the solution inside its cells is _____ compared to the water.?
kow [346]
The correct answer to the question above is hypertonic. When celery is being placed in a glass of pure water, the solution inside its cells is going to appear as hypertonic compared to the water. This means that the cells inside has a higher concentration than outside.

Biologists use optical tweezers to manipulate micron-sized objects using a beam of light. In this technique, a laser beam is foc
vekshin1

Answer:

Explanation:

Part A) Using

light intensity I= P/A

A= Area= π (Radius)^2= π((0.67*10^-6m)/(2))^2= 1.12*10^-13 m^2

Radius= Diameter/2

P= power= 10*10^-3=0.01 W

light intensity I= 0.01/(1.12*10^-13)= 9*10^10 W/m^2

Part B)  Using

I=c*ε*E^2/2

rearrange to solve for E= \sqrt{((I*2)/(c*ε))

c is the speed of light which is 3*10^8 m/s^2

ε=permittivity of free space or dielectric constant= 8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1

I= the already solved light intensity= 8.85*10^10 W/m^2

amplitude of the electric field E= \sqrt{(9*10^10 W/m^2)*(2) / (3*10^8 m/s^2)*(8.85* 10^-12 F⋅m−1)

---> E= \sqrt{(1.8*10^11) / (2.66*10^-3) = \sqrt{(6.8*10^13) = 8.25*10^6 V/m

\text{Given that,}\\\\\text{Height, h = 17 m}\\\\\\\text{We know that,}\\\\h = v_0t + \dfrac 12  gt^2\\\\\implies h = \dfrac 12 gt^2\\\\\implies t^2 = \dfrac{2h}g\\\\\implies t =\sqrt{\dfrac{2h}g} = \sqrt{\dfrac{2(17)}{9.81}} = 1.87 ~ \text{sec}
