Ans: C) Solid

Explanation: We will look into different states

A) Liquid : In liquid state molecules are not very tightly bound to each other. So, they have no fixed shape . They take the shape of container in which they are kept.

B) Gas : In gaseous state molecules are very loosely bound so they have very less intermolecular forces so they have much more freedom of movement.So, it will be also not correct.

D) Plasma : In Plasma state approximately equal amount of positive or negative charges are there, although its a type of hot ionized gaseous state but but due its different properties then other gases it is considered the 'fourth' state. And it also can't maintain it's definite shape and volume.So we will eliminate that also.

C) Solid : Finally we are left with solid state. Here molecules are tightly bound to each other . So, it doesn't change its shape and volume when kept in different container.

So 'Solid' state is the correct choice.

Hope it helps!!!

Give an example of a scientific hypothesis. Explain how you would test it, and how it could be falsified (proved untrue).
kaheart [24]

my hypothesis is that If you drop a piece of buttered toast, it will land butter side down.


I tested it by dropping 10 pieces of buttered toast off the table and noted on which side it landed


It could be falsified cause I just made all of this up. In essence, it's like flipping a coin, 50/50 chance so I could say that 5 landed butter up and 5 landed butter down.

Two equal charges are 2m2m apart. If the charges and the distance are divided by two, how is the force between the charges affec
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The force between the charges are not affected.

Explanation:

Given;

distance between two equal charges, R = 2m

The force between the charges is given by;

F = \frac{kq^2}{R^2}\\\\F_1 = \frac{kq_1^2}{R_1^2}\\\\When\ the \ charges \ and \ the \ distance \ are \ divided \ by \ two \ (q_2 = \frac{q_1}{2}, \ R_2 = \frac{R_1}{2} )\\\\ F_2 = \frac{kq_2^2}{R_2^2}\\\\F_2 = \frac{k(q_1/2)^2}{(R_1/2)^2}\\\\F_2= \frac{4k*q_1^2}{4*R_1^2}\\\\F_2 = \frac{k*q_1^2}{R_1^2}\\\\F_2 = F_1

Therefore, the force between the charges are not affected.
