If it's volume changes when you move it to the new container it would be a solid
Answer:
The minimum compression is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The mass of the block is 
The spring constant is 
The coefficient of static friction is 
For the the block not slip it mean the sum of forces acting on the horizontal axis is equal to the forces acting on the vertical axis
Now the force acting on the vertical axis is the force due to gravity which is mathematically given as

And the force acting on the horizontal axis is force due to the spring which is mathematically represented as

where x is the minimum compression to keep the block from slipping
Now equating this two formulas and making x the subject

substituting values we have


Answer:
The thickness is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The wavelength is 
The first order of the dark fringe is 
The second order of dark fringe considered is 
Generally the condition for destructive interference is mathematically represented as

Here y is the path difference between the central maxima(i.e the origin) and any dark fringe
So the path difference between the 16th dark fringe and the 6th dark fringe is mathematically represented as

=> 
=> 
=> 
Work Done = Force x Distance Moved
Work Done = 25 x 15 = 375 Joules
