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!!!

awhite billiard ball with mass mw = 1.47 kg is moving directly to the right with a speed of v = 3.01 m/s and collides elasticall

pochemuha

Answer:

speed of white ball is 1.13 m/s and speed of black ball is 2.78 m/s

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy

$KE = 6.66 J$

Explanation:

Since there is no external force on the system of two balls so here total momentum of two balls initially must be equal to the total momentum of two balls after collision

So we will have

momentum conservation along x direction

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1x} + m_2v_{2x}$

now plug in all values in it

$1.47 \times 3.01 + 0 = 1.47 v_1cos68 + 1.47 v_2cos22$

so we have

$3.01 = 0.375v_1 + 0.927v_2$

similarly in Y direction we have

$m_1v_{1i} + m_2v_{2i} = m_1v_{1y} + m_2v_{2y}$

now plug in all values in it

$0 + 0 = 1.47 v_1sin68 - 1.47 v_2sin22$

so we have

$0 = 0.927v_1 - 0.375v_2$

$v_2 = 2.47 v_1$

now from 1st equation we have

$3.01 = 0.375 v_1 + 0.927(2.47 v_1)$

$v_1 = 1.13 m/s$

$v_2 = 2.78 m/s$

so speed of white ball is 1.13 m/s and speed of black ball is 2.78 m/s

Also we know that since this is an elastic collision so here kinetic energy is always conserved to

initial kinetic energy = final kinetic energy

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(1.47)(3.01^2)$

$KE = 6.66 J$

The hot glowing surfaces of stars emit energy in the form of electromagnetic radiation. it is a good approximation to assume tha

Rufina [12.5K]

This assumption is correct. The emissivity of a substance is the ratio of the energy radiated from a body to the energy radiated from a black body (perfect emitter). Because these stars reflect negligible radiation compared to the amount they emit.
