- Gravitational force depends only on mass and distance, not on the state of matter.
- The forces of attraction between molecules in matter are electromagnetic in nature, not gravitational.
- These attractive forces are stronger in a solid than in a liquid than in a gas.
- Gravitational forces between molecules is completely negligible compared to the em forces.
So, key answer is inter-molecular forces of solids is stronger than liquids.
Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency
Speed = (.020 m) x (5 / sec)
Speed = 0.1 m/s
When the object is at the top of the hill it has the most potential energy. If it is sitting still, it has no kinetic energy. As the object begins to roll down the hill, it loses potential energy, but gains kinetic energy. The potential energy of the position of the object at the top of the hill is getting converted into kinetic energy. Hope this helped. :)
Answer:
E. Zero Maximum
Explanation:
At the point of maximum displacement, the speed is zero while the restoring force is maximum. In fact:
- The restoring force is given by
, where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement - at the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so F is maximum as well
- the total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:

where m is the mass of the system and v is the speed. Since E (the total energy) is constant due to the law of conservation of energy, we have that when K increases, U decreases, and viceversa. As a result, when x increases, v decreases, and viceversa. At the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so v will have its minimum value (which is zero, since the system is changing direction of motion).
Answer:
When electric voltage is applied, an electric field within the metal triggers the movement of the electrons, making them shift from one end to another end of the conductor. Electrons will move toward the positive side.
