Answer:

Milimeters

Explanation:

This kind of question must be checked with everyday elements, in this way we will analyze each of the options until we reach the appropriate:

kilograms can not be because this unit serves to measure the mass not the length.

kilometers (km) is a unit of length, but however it does not serve for this measurement since a km is equivalent to 1000 meters, therefore measuring the length of a shoe with a ruler measuring 1000 meters is very impractical.

milliliters is a unit of volume, and can often be found in the measurement of volume content of liquids, for example 700 milliliters of milk or 1000 milliliters of water. Therefore it is impractical to measure a shoe with a unit of volume.

In this way the way to measure a shoe correctly is using a ruler or measuring instrument graduated in millimeters.

Juan amd kym have four samples of matter. They are observing and describing the properties of these samples. Which property will

TiliK225 [7]

Answer: The property that will best provide evidence that the samples are solid includes:

--> if the substance has a definite shape,

-->if the substance has a definite volume

--> if it's tightly packed.

Explanation:

According to the kinetic theory of matter, every substance consist of very large number of very small particles called molecules. These molecules, which are made up of atoms that are the smallest particles of a substance that can exist in a free state.

Matter can exist in the following states:

--> Solid state

--> liquid state or

--> Gaseous state.

The general property of a substance that is in gaseous state includes:

--> Definite shape: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it's shape is fixed that is, it doesn't depend on the shape of other materials.

--> Definite volume: A substance can be grouped as a solid if it occupies its own shape. This is due to the force of cohesion among its molecules.

--> Tightly packed: A substance can be grouped as solid if the molecular movements of the particles are negligible.

From the samples under observation by Juan and kym, if the sample that possesses the above described qualities, it is a solid rather than liquid or gas.

A grape is thrown straight up in the air. If it was thrown at 2 m/s, how high will it go in the air?

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Answer: Height is 0.204 m

Explanation:

At the highest point, it is called the maximum height.

• From third newton's equation of motion:

${ \rm{ {v}^{2} = {u}^{2} + 2gs}}$

• At maximum height, v is zero

• u is initial speed

• g is -9.8 m/s²

• s is the height

${ \rm{0 {}^{2} = {2}^{2} - (2 \times 9.8 \times s)}} \\ \\ { \rm{4 = 19.6s}} \\ \\ { \rm{s = 0.204 \: m}}$

N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2

liberstina [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.
