D. The molecules in water are constantly moving.

They are able to do this because they move around to take whatever shape of the container.

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Properties which are unable to bring any change in chemical composition of a substance are known as physical properties.

For example, change in shape, size, mass, volume etc are all physical properties.

Since, water is a liquid and in liquids the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Due to which they are able to slide past each other.

Hence, liquids do not have a definite shape but they do have a definite volume as they occupy the volume of container in which they are placed.

Thus, we can conclude that the best explanation for water changes shape to fill the shape of its container is that it's a physical property of water.

Consider a balloon of mass 0.030kg being inflated with a gas of density 0.54kg/m. What will be the volume of the balloon when it
Nonamiya [84]

the weight of the balloon is .030 * 10 = 0.3 N

the weight of the gas of volume v is 0.54*10 N

The lifting force of a volume of v m³ of displaced air is 1.29v N

so, we need

1.29*10*v = 0.3 + 0.54*10*v

or

1.29v = 0.03+0.54v

Find the magnitude of the gravitational force a 63.5 kg person would experience while standing on the surface of Earth with a ma
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: 3976N

Explanation:

Using the formula for calculating gravitational force between two masses, we have

F = GMm/r^2

Where G is the gravitational constant

M and m are the masses

r is the distance between the masses

F= 6.673 × 10-¹¹ × 5.98 × 10²⁴ × 63.5/ (6.37 × 10^6)^2

F= 2.533×10^16/6.37×10^12

F= 0.3976×10⁴N

F= 3976N

Choose the COST tab and check that 1 day is selected. Set the Cost of electricity to 10.0 ¢/kWh. The daily cost is equal to the
AveGali [126]

Answer:

Daily Cost = 24 ¢

Explanation:

Consider a typical incandescent bulb having a power rating of 100 W. Now, we calculate the daily consumption by multiplying the Power with time:

Daily Consumption = (Power Rating)(Time in hours)

Daily Consumption = (0.1 KW)(24 h/1 day)

Daily Consumption = 2.4 KWh

Now, we will calculate the daily cost of the incandescent lamp by multiplying the daily consumption with the unit cost.

Daily Cost = (Daily Consumption)(Unit Cost)

Daily Cost = (2.4 KWh)(10 ¢/KWh)

<u>Daily Cost = 24 ¢</u>
