Let h = distance (m) to the water surface.
Initial velocity, u = 0 (because the stone was dropped).
Use the formula
h = ut + (1/2)gt^2
where g = 9.8 m/s^2 (acc. due to graity)
t = time (s)
h = (1/2)*(9.8)*(3^2) = 44.1 m
The best answer is
A) <span>The atoms in the mineral get rearranged
Over time, and under great pressure, the atoms of a substance can become rearranged, forming a new substance. For example, the intense pressure that carbon underground experiences, perhaps in the form of coal, can rearrange the atoms of the substance to create a diamond. </span>
Answer:
D. The temperature does not change during a phase change because the average kinetic energy does not change. Therefore, the potential energy in the bonds between molecules must change.
Explanation:
When there is a change of state (for example, from solid into a liquid, as in this example), when energy is added to the system, the temperature of the substance does not change.
The reason for this is that the energy supplied is no longer used to increase the average kinetic energy of the particle, but instead it is used to break the bonds between the different particles/molecules. For instance, since in this case the substance is changing from solid to liquid, all the energy supplied during the phase change is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the solid: when the process is done, all the molecules will be free to slide past each other, and the substance has turned completely into a liquid.
The bonds between molecules store potential energy: therefore, this means that the energy supplied during the phase change is not used to change the kinetic energy, but to change the potential energy in the bonds between the molecules.
The message is the information being communicated from one place to another.
It used to be called the "intelligence". But as time went on, it became
harder to ignore the obvious fact that that was going too far, and the
label was changed to the more IQ-neutral "message".
