<u>Answer </u>

kinetic


<u>Explanation</u>

Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass. There are four states of matter, solids, liquids, gases and plasma. All this consist of small molecules that are in constant random motion. This is called kinetic theory of matter.

When these molecules are in motion they may collide. No energy is gained or lost during collision. The particle/molecules move in a constant linear motion.

The kinetic theory of matter states that all particles of matter are in constant motion.

<h2>Further Explanation </h2><h3>Matter </h3>

Matter is anything that has weigh and occupies space. There are three states of matter; solid, liquid, and gases.  

<h3>Kinetic theory of Matter  </h3>
  • The kinetic theory of matter states that matter is made up of many small particles such as atoms or molecules that are in continuous random motion.
  • The particles making up matter possess energy which varies depending on the temperature which determines the state of matter. Particles in solid state have the lowest energy while particles in the gaseous state have the highest amount of energy.  
  • Kinetic theory of matter helps explain the states of matter and why there are different states of matter.  

According to kinetic theory of matter:

  1. Matter is made up many particles that are in constant movement
  2. All particles in matter possess energy and depends on temperature
  3. Average kinetic energy of particles is measured by the temperature of a substance
  4. Change in kinetic energy of particles may cause a change in the phase of matter.
  5. Particles in matter experience attractive forces between them which increases with decrease in distance between the particles. The attractive forces are called inter-molecular forces.

She uses a voltmeter, that measures in volts, and an ammeter that measures in amps. Both were correctly placed in her circuit. I
Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

A) the ammeter is x  

B)

  • voltage across R₁ (left resistor) =  0.75 V
  • voltage across the right one  = 0.3 V

C) 1.05 V

Explanation:

From the diagram attached below;

A) Assuming the homes were wired in series, and one of the homes face short circuit then all the houses would face power cut but it doesn't happen. So they must be connected in parallel.

Therefore; The ammeter is  connected in series, Hence, the ammeter is x  and the voltmeter must be z.

B)

Given that:

x = 0.15 A

z = 0.3 V

Resistor (R) on the left = 5 ohms

Then, voltage across R₁ (left resistor) = 5×(x)

= 5×0.15

= 0.75 V

voltage across the right one = z = 0.3 V

C)

The total voltage of battery = 0.75+0.3 = 1.05 V

Cuales son las diferencias entre el helio y el hidrógeno?
allsm [11]

El helio es más ligero que el aire y a diferencia del hidrógeno no es inflamable, siendo además su poder ascensional un 8 % menor que el de este, por lo que se emplea como gas de relleno en globos y zepelines publicitarios, de investigación atmosférica e incluso para realizar reconocimientos militares.espero ke esto ayude!

You throw a rock upward. The rock is moving upward, but it is slowing down. If we define the ground as the origin, the position
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

A. Positive, positive

Explanation:

As we defined the ground is the origin, as long as the rock is above the ground, its position would always be positive.

As for velocity, as long as the rock is moving upwards, its direction is also upward, so its velocity is always positive. The velocity will become negative when the rock falls down.
