Which of the following is a TRUE

Physics
1 answer:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
7 0

The statement that is the most true regarding the states of matter is the first statement.

A. Most matter on Earth exists as a solid, liquid, or gas.

This is correct since most of the matter on Earth exists in those 3 states, meanwhile plasma is not a state that most of matter on earth is found in since it is mostly associated to stars and the external galactic regions.

Therefore, B is incorrect.

C is false, since almost of all of the matter on earth can transform and change through each of the 3 states of matter, solid, liquid, and gas.

D is false since most of the matter in universe is actually made out of plasma instead of a liquid. In fact, over 99% of the known universe's matter is said to consist of plasma.

A man goes 150 m due east and then 200 m due north how far is he from starting point
grin007 [14]

Answer:

250 m

Explanation:

Since North and East are 90 degrees from each other, we can treat this as a right-angled triangle, with the distance in each direction being the sides and the distance from the starting point being the hypotenuse.

Hence, sqrt(150^2+200^2) = 250 m.

Hope this helped!

When the daughter nucleus produced in a radioactive decay is itself unstable, it will eventually decay and form its own daughter
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

4.981 MeV

Explanation:

The quantity of energy Q can be calculated using the formula

Q = (mass before - mass after) × c²

Atomic Mass of thorium = 232.038054 u, atomic of Radium = 228.0301069 u and mass of Helium = 4.00260. The difference of atomic number and atomic mass  between the thorium and radium ( 232 - 228)  and ( 90 - 88)  show α particle was emitted.

1 u = 931.494 Mev/c²

Q = (mass before - mass after) × c²

Q = ( mass of thorium - ( mass of Radium + mass of Helium ) )× c²

Q = 232.038054 u - ( 228.0301069 + 4.00260) × c²

Q = 0.0053471 u × c²

replace 1 u = 931.494 MeV/ c²

Q = 0.0053471 × c² × (931.494 MeV / c²)

cancel c²  from the equation

Q = 0.0053471 × 931.494 MeV = 4.981 MeV

What is the purpose of a kink in a thermometer?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

A 'kink' in the glass tube which breaks the mercury as it contracts, storing the highest temperature reading. The glass tube is shaped like a lens to magnify the thin mercury thread. Shaking the thermometer resets the mercury back into the bulb.
