Answer:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of an object and also directly proportional to the square of the velocity of that object:

E_k = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

Notice that if we keep velocity constant and only increase the mass of a object, the kinetic energy of that object would increase, as we've already emphasized the direct relationship between the kinetic energy term and the mass term.

Let's take a simple example: assume that object 1 and object 2 are both moving at the same velocity but object 1 has a much lower mass than object 2. According to the equation, object 1 has lower kinetic energy. This object can then transform all of its kinetic energy into some other form, say, heat the ground. The heat transferred will be significantly lower than by the object 2 moving at the same velocity but having a much greater mass.

A balloon originally had a volume of 4.39 L at 44C and a pressure of 729 torr  to what temperature must the balloon be cooled
VMariaS [17]

The new temperature : 11.56 °C

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Boyle's law and Gay Lussac's law  

\tt \dfrac{P_1.V_1}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2.V_2}{T_2}

P1 = initial gas pressure (N/m² or Pa)  

V1 = initial gas volume (m³)  

P2 = final gas pressure  

V2 = final gas volume

T1 = initial gas temperature (K)  

T2 = final gas temperature  

V₁=4.39 L

T₁=44+273=317 K

P₁ = 729 torr = 0,959211 atm

V₂=3.78 L

P₂= 1 atm

\tt \dfrac{0.959211\times 4.39}{317}=\dfrac{1\times 3.78}{T_2}\\\\T_2=\dfrac{1\times 3.78\times 317}{0.959211\times 4.39}\\\\T_2=284.559~K=11.56~C

Surface tension of solid,liquid and gas​
Arisa [49]

Explanation:

<h3>Surface tension is the tendency of liquid surfaces to shrink into the minimum surface area possible. Surface tension allows insects, usually denser than water, to float and slide on a water surface.</h3>

How do you know when a solution is saturated? _____________________________________________________ When a solution is saturated
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

If more solute is added and it does not dissolve, then the original solution was saturated

If more solute is added and it does not dissolve, then the original solution was saturated. If the added solute dissolves, then the original solution was unsaturated. A solution that has been allowed to reach equilibrium but which has extra undissolved solute at the bottom of the container must be saturate
