Why does a solid keep its shape

Physics
1 answer:
garri49 [273]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Solids can hold their shape because their molecules are tightly packed together. Atoms and molecules in liquids and gases are bouncing and floating around, free to move where they want. The molecules in a solid are stuck in a specific structure or arrangement of atoms.

Describe the electron transfers that occur in the formation of calcium fluoride from elemental calcium and elemental fluorine.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Check explanation

Explanation:

In the formation of calcium fluoride we take calcium and fluorine.

in elemental form calcium exist in solid form and fluorine in gaseous form.

formation of compound takes place to complete their octet, in case of calcium  need to remove two electron and need to add one elecron in fluorine to complete their octet so two electron will ransferred from calcium to two fluorine atom.

Which of the following is an example of the Doppler effect? A water bug on the surface of a pond is producing small ripples in t
noname [10]

Answer:

A police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase.

Explanation:

In Physics, Doppler effect can be defined as the change in frequency of a wave with respect to an observer in motion and moving relative to the source of the wave.

Simply stated, Doppler effect is the change in wave frequency as a result of the relative motion existing between a wave source and its observer.

The term "Doppler effect" was named after an Austrian mathematician and physicist known as Christian Johann Doppler while studying the starlight in relation to the movement of stars.

<em>The phenomenon of Doppler effects is generally applicable to both sound and light. </em>

An example of the Doppler effect is a police car with its siren on is driving towards you, and you perceive the pitch of the siren to increase. This is so because when a sound object moves towards you, its sound waves frequency increases, thereby causing a higher pitch. However, if the sound object is moving away from the observer, it's sound waves frequency decreases and thus resulting in a lower pitch.

<em>Other fields were the Doppler effects are applied are; astronomy, flow management, vibration measurement, radars, satellite communications etc. </em>

the speed of travel of the moon around the earth, using the formula for the speed of a moving object in a circular path
Svetach [21]

Answer: 1018.26 m/s

Explanation:

Approaching the orbit of the Moon around the Earth to a circular orbit (or circular path), we can use the equation of the speed of an object with uniform circular motion:  

V=\sqrt{G\frac{M}{r}}

Where:  

V is the speed of travel of the Moon around the Earth

G=6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}} is the Gravitational Constant

M=5.972(10)^{24} kg is the mass of the Earth

r=384400(10)^{3} m is the distance from the center of the Earth to the center of the Moon

Solving:

V=\sqrt{6.674(10)^{-11}\frac{m^{3}}{kgs^{2}}\frac{5.972(10)^{24} kg}{384400(10)^{3} m}}

V=1018.26 m/s This is the speed of travel of the Moon around the Earth
