Why do solids have a definite shape?

2 answers:

5 0

Any matter that is a solid has a definite shape and a definite volume. The molecules in a solid are in fixed positions and are close together. Although the molecules can still vibrate, they cannot move from one part of the solid to another part. As a result, a solid does not easily change its shape or its volume

A subducting oceanic plate

beks73 [17]

Maybe this would help understand it better.

Tectonic plates can transport both continental crust and oceanic crust, or they may be made of only one kind of crust. Oceanic crust is denser than continental crust. At a subduction zone, the oceanic crust usually sinks into the mantle beneath lighter continental crust

You decide to roll a 0.11-kgkg ball across the floor so slowly that it will have a small momentum and a large de Broglie wavelen

Oksanka [162]

The de Broglie wavelength $\lambda = 4.0\times 10^{-30}$ m

We know that

de Broglie wavelength = $\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}\lambda = \frac{6.63\times 10^{-34}}{0.11\times 1.5 \times 10 ^{-3}}$

$\lambda = 4.0\times 10^{-30}$ m

<h3>What is de Broglie wavelength?</h3>

According to the de Broglie equation, matter can behave like waves, much like how light and radiation do, which are both waves and particles. A beam of electrons can be diffracted just like a beam of light, according to the equation. The de Broglie equation essentially clarifies the notion of matter having a wavelength.

Therefore, whether a particle is tiny or macroscopic, it will have a wavelength when examined.

The wave nature of matter can be seen or observed in the case of macroscopic objects.

You stand on a merry-go-round which is spinning at f = 0:25 revolutions per second. You are R = 200 cm from the center. (a) Find

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(a) ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b) ac = 4.92 m/s²

Explanation:

(a)

The angular speed of the merry go-round can be found as follows:

ω = 2πf

where,

ω = angular speed = ?

f = frequency = 0.25 rev/s

Therefore,

ω = (2π)(0.25 rev/s)

ω = 1.57 rad/s

(b)

The centripetal acceleration can be found as:

ac = v²/R

but,

v = Rω

Therefore,

ac = (Rω)²/R

ac = Rω²

therefore,

ac = (2 m)(1.57 rad/s)²

ac = 4.92 m/s²

(c)

In order to avoid slipping the centripetal force must not exceed the frictional force between shoes and floor:

Centripetal Force = Frictional Force

m*ac = μs*R = μs*W

m*ac = μs*mg

ac = μs*g

μs = ac/g

μs = (4.92 m/s²)/(9.8 m/s²)

μs = 0.5
