Explanation:

An object whose particles are held by strong intermolecular forces of attraction is known as a solid substance.

In solids, particles have least kinetic energy and they can only vibrate at their position.

Therefore, solids have a definite shape and volume.

Hence, when we place a solid object in a container then it is unable to take the shape of container because its molecules are held strongly with each other.

Thus, they bond between its molecules cannot be broken down easily.

What is the weight of a 4.2 kg bowling ball on Mars?

Answer:

1.59 kg

Explanation:

The formula is:

F is the gravitational force between two objects,

G is the Gravitational Constant (6.674×10-11 Newtons x meters2 / kilograms2),

M is the planet's mass (kg),

m is your mass (kg), and

r is the distance (m) between the centers of the two masses (the planet's radius).

Hope this helps

A steel ball rolls with a constant velocity on a tabletop 0.950 m high it rolls off and hit the ground 0.352 m from the edge of

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

0.799 m/s if air resistance is negligible.

Explanation:

For how long is the ball in the air?

Acceleration is constant. The change in the ball's height $\Delta h$ depends on the square of the time:

$\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t$ ,

where

$\Delta h$ is the change in the ball's height.
$g$ is the acceleration due to gravity.
$t$ is the time for which the ball is in the air.
$v_0$ is the initial vertical velocity of the ball.

The height of the ball decreases, so this value should be the opposite of the height of the table relative to the ground. $\Delta h = -0.950\;\text{m}$ .
Gravity pulls objects toward the earth, so $g$ is also negative. $g \approx -9.81\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-2}$ near the surface of the earth.
Assume that the table is flat. The vertical velocity of the ball will be zero until it falls off the edge. As a result, $v_0 = 0$ .

Solve for $t$ .

$\displaystyle \Delta h = \frac{1}{2} \;g\cdot t^{2} + v_0\cdot t$ ;

$\displaystyle -0.950 = \frac{1}{2} \times (-9.81) \cdot t^{2}$ ;

$\displaystyle t^{2} =\frac{-0.950}{1/2 \times (-9.81)}$ ;

$t \approx 0.440315\;\text{s}$ .

What's the initial horizontal velocity of the ball?

Horizontal displacement of the ball: $\Delta x = 0.352\;\text{m}$ ;
Time taken: $\Delta t = 0.440315\;\text{s}$

Assume that air resistance is negligible. Only gravity is acting on the ball when it falls from the tabletop. The horizontal velocity of the ball will not change while the ball is in the air. In other words, the ball will move away from the table at the same speed at which it rolls towards the edge.

$\begin{aligned}\text{Rolling Velocity}&=\text{Horizontal Velocity} \\&= \text{Average Horizontal Velocity}\\ &=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}=\frac{0.352\;\text{m}}{0.440315\;\text{s}}=0.0799\;\text{m}\cdot\text{s}^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

Both values from the question come with 3 significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that during the calculation and round the final result to the same number of significant figures.
