Answer:

State A = piece of metal; State B = air

Explanation:

For the three main states of matter here's how it breaks down.

Solid - Cannot be compressed and retains its shape

Liquid - Cannot be compressed and does not retain its shape

Gas - Compressible and does not retain its shape.

Knowing this State A has to be solid.  Only one of the options has A as a solid, so that's the answer.   Worth knowing state B is a gas though, only one compressible, just like solid is the only one that retains its shape.

8.) If a car moving at 50km/h skids 15m with locked brakes, how far does the same car moving at 100km/h
pantera1 [17]

(8) A car starting with a speed <em>v</em> skids to a stop over a distance <em>d</em>, which means the brakes apply an acceleration <em>a</em> such that

0² - <em>v</em>² = 2 <em>a</em> <em>d</em> → <em>a</em> = - <em>v</em>² / (2<em>d</em>)

Then the car comes to rest over a distance of

<em>d</em> = - <em>v</em>² / (2<em>a</em>)

Doubling the starting speed gives

- (2<em>v</em>)² / (2<em>a</em>) = - 4<em>v</em>² / (2<em>a</em>) = 4<em>d</em>

so the distance traveled is quadrupled, and it would move a distance of 4 • 15 m = 60 m.

Alternatively, you can explicitly solve for the acceleration, then for the distance:

A car starting at 50 km/h ≈ 13.9 m/s skids to a stop in 15 m, so locked brakes apply an acceleration <em>a</em> such that

0² - (13.9 m/s)² = 2 <em>a</em> (15 m) → <em>a</em> ≈ -6.43 m/s²

So the same car starting at 100 km/h ≈ 27.8 m/s skids to stop over a distance <em>d</em> such that

0² - (27.8 m/s)² = 2 (-6.43 m/s²) <em>d</em> → <em>d</em> ≈ 60 m

(9) Pushing the lever down 1.2 m with a force of 50 N amounts to doing (1.2 m) (50 N) = 60 J of work. So the load on the other end receives 60 J of potential energy. If the acceleration due to gravity is taken to be approximately 10 m/s², then the load has a mass <em>m</em> such that

60 J = <em>m g h</em>

where <em>g</em> = 10 m/s² and <em>h</em> is the height it is lifted, 1.2 m. Solving for <em>m</em> gives

<em>m</em> = (60 J) / ((10 m/s²) (1.2 m)) = 5 kg

(10) Is this also multiple choice? I'm not completely sure, but something about the weight of the tractor seems excessive. It would help to see what the options might be.

(a) What is the ionization energy of a hydrogen atom that is in the n = 6 excited state? (b) For a hydrogen atom, determine the
crimeas [40]

Answer:

(a) 0.3778 eV

(b) Ratio = 0.0278

Explanation:

The Bohr's formula for the calculation of the energy of the electron in nth orbit is:

E=\frac {-13.6}{n^2}\ eV

(a) The energy of the electron in n= 6 excited state is:

E=\frac {-13.6}{6^2}\ eV

E=-0.3778\ eV

Ionisation energy is the amount of this energy required to remove the electron. Thus, |E| = 0.3778 eV

(b) For first orbit energy is:

E=\frac {-13.6}{1^2}\ eV

E=-13.6\ eV

Ratio=\frac {E_6}{E_1}

Ratio=\frac {-0.3778}{-13.6}

Ratio = 0.0278

A gas is collected from a radioactive material; upon inspection, the gas is identified as helium. the presence of the helium ind
Flura [38]
The presence of helium gas indicates the radioactive sample is most likely decaying by α-decay, or alpha decay. α-decay is the type of radioactive decay in which an atomic nucleus emits α particles. α particles are Helium nuclei. So the correct answer would be α-decay.
