Answer:

Intensive properties

Density

Color

temperature

Melting point

Extensive properties

Mass

Volume

Total Energy

Explanation:

Intensive properties: In Physics, Intensive properties which are not depend of the amount of matter in a sample, It only depends of the type of matter, some examples of intensive properties are:

1. Density: It is a intensive property. It can explain better with a example: the water density is 1000 kg/m3, So if we have 1 liter or 1000 liters of water the density will be the same for the two samples.

2. Color: Solid sodium chloride is white. If you have 2 samples the first recipient with 2 kilograms of NaCl and the second with 10 kilograms of NaCl. The color of the substance does not depend on the amount of the substance.

As was mentioned before the same theory is applied to temperature and melting point concepts.

On the other hand,

Extensive properties are properties of the matter which depend on the amount of matter that is present in the system or sample. some examples are:

1. Mass: It is a property that measures the amount of matter that an object contains. For example, 10 kilograms of solid Copper contains a higher mass than 2 kilograms of the same metal.

2. Volume: It is a property which measures the space occupied by an object or a substance. For example, the space occupied by a glass of milk is lower than the space occupied by a bottle of milk, Then the volume of the glass of milk is lower than the volume of the bottle of milk.

3. Finally the total energy is contained in molecules and atoms that constituted systems so, if the amount of matter increases the number of molecules too, then the total energy will increase.

I hope it helps you.

Two objects were lifted by a machine.One object had a mass of 2 kilograms and was lifted at a speed of 2 m/sec.The other had a m

NikAS [45]

Answer:

While lifting two object the machine needs the different momentum for different mass object.

Explanation:

Momentum is the quantity of motion contained in an object. Usually it is measured by the product of mass and velocity.
Momentum of first mass = 2 kg × 2 m/sec = 4 kg m/sec
Momentum of second mass = 4 kg × 3 m/sec = 12 kg m/sec
So the machine requires higher mass in motion for second object ( i.e. momentum) than the first one while lifting.

standing side by side, you and a friend step off a bridge and fall for 1.6s to the water below. your friend goes first, and you

Andrew [12]

(a) The distance will be more than 2.0 meters.

In fact, you starts your fall after your friend has already fallen 2.0 meters. This means that your friend has already accelerated for a while, therefore his velocity will be greater than yours. But this statement will be actually true for the entire fall, since you has some delay, therefore when your friend will hit the water, the separation between you and him will be greater than the initial separation of 2.0 meters.

b) First of all we need to calculate the height of the bridge with respect to the water. We know that you take 1.6 s to fall down, therefore we can use the following equation:

$S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(1.6s)^2=12.56 m$

We know that your friend will take 1.6 s to falls down. Instead, you start your jump after he has already fallen 2.0 m, therefore after a time given by the equation:

$S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2$

Using S=2.0 m,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(2.0 m)}{9.81 m/s^2}}=0.64 s$

So we know that you start your fall 0.64 s after your friend. Therefore, now we can find how much did you fall between the moment you started your fall (0.64 s) and the moment your friend hits the water (1.6 s). Using

$t=1.6 s-0.64 s=0.96 s$

we find

$S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2=\frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(0.96 s)^2 =4.52 m$

So, when your friend hits the water, you just covered 4.52 m, while he already covered 12.56 m. Therefore, the separation between you and your friend is more than 2 meters.

Which would be the best metal to use for the insulated wire?

katrin2010 [14]

Copper, because it has the lowest specific electrical resistance.

specific electrical resistance aka volume resistivity is a fundamental property of a material that quantifies how strongly that material opposes the flow of electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the flow of electric current.

In an intergalactic competition, spaceship pilots compete to see who can cover the distance between two asteroids in the short-

pogonyaev

Answer:

a) truc is C, b) correct result is the B

Explanation:

As the speed of the competition is very high, for the judges the speed is

v = d / t

v = 3 109 m / 20

v = 1.5 108 m / s

This is half the speed of light. For these high speeds we must use the relations of special relativity.

For the time t = to γ

For distance L = Lo / γ

γ = √ (1-v2 / c2)

Own time and distance (to and Lo) corresponds to the observer who is not moving the judges in this case

Let's look for the range value

γ = 1 / √ (1 - (1.5 / 3) 2) = 1 / 0.866 = 1.15

The time t = 20 1.15 = 23 s

The distance L = 3 10 9 /1.15 = 2.60 109 m

From these results we see that time increases and the distance is shorter.

Let's review the claims

A) False. It's the opposite

B) False

C) True. It is according to the result found

D) False.

In the nuclear fusion process, we will also use the special relativity that has a relationship between energy and mass

ΔE = c² Δm

As in the process energy is released, for the law of conservation of the mass of energy to be fulfilled, the total mass of the products, He atom, must be reduced.

Therefore the correct result is the B
