Answer:

b. the forces of attraction among them limit their motion.

Explanation:

In solids, the particles are tightly packed. The solid has fixed shape and volume.There is strong inter-particle force of attraction which prevents the motion of particles in solids. Thus, the particles in solids can vibrate about their fixed position. Liquids have fixed volume but not shape. Gases don't have fixed shape and volume. The particles of liquid do not spread out like gases. This is because of the inter particle attraction which prevents them from moving far away. In gases, the inter-particle distance is large and thus, particles have weak force of attraction.

How is temperature related to the physical change of a substance?

WINSTONCH [101]

When you heat something of cool it down you don't change the substance you might change the why is looks, but it is still the same substance. For example you cool water to 0 degrees Celsius it turns into ice but it still is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen H2O. Physical changes will change state and/or form but it will still be what it originally was on the molecular level. Hope that helped.

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer : Height, h = 20.4 m

Explanation :

It is given that,

Mass of an object, m = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Gravitational potential energy, PE = 100 J

The Gravitational potential energy is the energy which is possessed due to the height and gravity of an object. It is given as :

PE = m g h

where,

h is the height of the cliff.

$100\ J=0.5\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times h$

h = 20.40 m

So, the height of the cliff is 20.4 m.
