This means that this substance has no fixed volume and can expand or shrink however it may want. An example is gas. Gas will always expand to fill up the space it is in.
If this helped please give brainliest answer, rate, and thanks!

Thank you.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

I got everything but i. Don't know why but it's eluding me. So let's do everything but that.

a. PE = mgh so

PE = (2.5)(98)(14) and

PE = 340 J

b. $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ so

$KE=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)(14)^2$ and

KE = 250 J

c. TE = KE + PE so

TE = 340 + 250 and

TE = 590 J

d. PE at 8.7 m:

PE = (2.5)(9.8)(8.7) and

PE = 210 J

e. The KE at the same height:

TE = KE + PE and

590 = KE + 210 so

KE = 380 J

f. The velocity at that height:

$380=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)v^2$ and

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(380)}{2.5} }$ so

v = 17 m/s

g. The velocity at a height of 11.6 m (these get a bit more involed as we move forward!). First we need to find the PE at that height and then use it in the TE equation to solve for KE, then use the value for KE in the KE equation to solve for velocity:

590 = KE + PE and

PE = (2.5)(9.8)(11.6) so

PE = 280 then

590 = KE + 280 so

KE = 310 then

$310=\frac{1}{2}(2.5)v^2$ and

$v=\sqrt{\frac{2(310)}{2.5} }$ so

v = 16 m/s

h. This one is a one-dimensional problem not using the TE. This one uses parabolic motion equations. We know that the initial velocity of this object was 0 since it started from the launcher. That allows us to find the time at which the object was at a velocity of 26 m/s. Let's do that first:

$v=v_0+at$ and

26 = 0 + 9.8t and

26 = 9.8t so the time at 26 m/s is

t = 2.7 seconds. Now we use that in the equation for displacement:

Δx = $v_0t+\frac{1}{2}at^2$ and filling in the time the object was at 26 m/s:

Δx = 0t + $\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)2.7)^2$ so

Δx = 36 m

i. ??? In order to find the velocity at which the object hits the ground we would need to know the initial height so we could find the time it takes to hit the ground, and then from there, sub all that in to find final velocity. In my estimations, we have 2 unknowns and I can't seem to see my way around that connundrum.

Wolfgang pauli hypothesized an exclusion principle. This principle says two electrons in an atom cannot have the same what?.

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

No two electrons can have the same set of quantum numbers .

<h3>What is Wolfgang Pauli hypothesized an exclusion principle?</h3>

Pauli made a significant advance when he proposed the notion of adding a fourth quantum number to the three that were previously used to represent the quantum state of an electron. Physically speaking, the first three quantum numbers made sense since they had to do with how the electron moved about the nucleus.

The following rule was developed by Austrian physicist Wolfgang Pauli. The quantum numbers of any two electrons cannot be identical.

To put it another way, no two electrons can be in the same state. The Pauli exclusion principle is the name given to this proposition since it forbids electrons from being in the same state.

The function h(t) = –16t2 + 96t + 6 represents an object projected into the air from a cannon. The maximum height reached by the

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

3 seconds

Explanation:

Since h(t) represents the height and t represents the time, we can set the equation equal to 150 to find t.

-16t^2+96t+6=150

Subtract 150 from both sides to set the equation equal to 0, to find the solutions.

-16t^2+96t-144=0

Factor out -16, because all of the terms are divisible by it.

-16(t^2+6t+9)=0

Now we can focus on the terms inside the parenthesis and factor it again.

t^2-6t+9=0

We need to find two value that can be multiplied to get 9 and added to get -6.

-3 and -3 works.

Thus, we get (x-3)(x-3).

Now solve for 0.

x-3=0

x=3

The object reaches its maximum height after 3 seconds.
