Answer:
A. a uniform mixture that can't be separated
"Mass" is the amount of matter that makes up your body. It doesn't depend on where you happen to be, any more than the amount of money in your pocket depends on where you are. If your mass is 65 kg in your kitchen, then it's 65 kg. Doesn't matter whether you're in the basement, in school, at the bottom of the ocean, in Mexico, in China, anywhere else on Earth, anywhere on the moon, or floating in space.
The cause for a molecular cloud forming fragments when it collapses is indicated correctly by option D. density variations from place to place grow larger as the cloud collapses.
Molecular cloud:
A molecular cloud, also known as a stellar nursery, is a specific kind of interstellar cloud, whose density and size allow the development of molecules, absorption nebulae, and H II regions. In contrast, some regions of the interstellar medium mostly consist of ionized gas.
Molecular clouds are cold, dense areas of space where stars form. The cloud collapses into a proto-star when the gravitational force pulling it in outweighs the internal pressure pushing it in.
When a molecular cloud collapses, it is observed that the density varies from place to place with the variation increasing with collapse. As a result, the collapse is characterized by fragmentation of the cloud.
Thus the correct option is: D. density variations from place to place grow larger as the cloud collapses.

Answer:
Higher, Windward side, Condenses
Explanation:
The Windward side refers to that side of a mountain that faces the direction from which the wind is blowing. In this direction, the moisture containing hot air blowing from a distant place moves upward and strikes the mountain at a greater height, where the air mass is thin and the temperature is relatively cold. As the temperature and pressure decrease with altitude, the hot uprising air cools and gradually condenses. This results in the occurrence of high precipitation over this region i.e. the windward side of the mountain.
Therefore, the precipitation is always higher on the windward side of a mountain as the hot air undergoes condensation at greater height as it rises upward.
Answer:
(a) 2.624
(b) 1.334
Explanation:
The given data in the question is:
Mass = 2.95 kg
Spring constant "k" = 820 N/m
Compression of Spring "x" = 0.0800m
Using this data and the equation to find the answer for spring potential energy:
spring potential energy = 1/2 kx²
= 1/2 (820 N/m)(0.0800m)²
= 2.624 Joules
(b) - It is given that the surface is friction-less which means no loss of energy during the motion of spring. This means that all the potential energy possessed by the spring converts to Kinetic Energy of the block. We can equate spring potential energy with Kinetic energy to find the block's speed as below:
Kinetic Energy = 1/2mv² where "m" is mass and "v" is velocity of the object
1/2mv² = spring potential energy (found in part "a" above)
1/2(2.95 kg)v² = 2.624 Joules
v² = (2.624 x 2) / 2.95
v² = 1.779
v = √1.779
v = 1.334 m/s
