At the top of the mountain, when he tightens the cap onto the bottole, there is some water and some air inside the bottle. Then he brings the bottle down to the base of the mountain.
The pressure on the outside of the bottle is greater than it was when he put the cap on. If anything could get out of the bottlde, it would. But it can't . . . the cap is on too tight. So all the water and all the air has to stay inside, and anything that can get squished into a smaller space has to get squished into a smaller space.
The water is pretty much unsquishable.
Biut the air in there can be <em>COMPRESSED</em>. The air gets squished into a smaller space, and the bottle wrinkles in slightly.
Answer: electric field
Explanation: when a charge is placed in space, it alters the space around it by creating an electric field.
This electric field has the ability to exert a force (f) on any test charge(q) placed within this vicinity.
This is the reason why a charge can either attract or repel another charge.
<span>Even in space, there is still presence of gravity. The
cause of weightlessness is not how far above the earth the space shuttle is but
rather how fast it is travelling. The shuttle is in free fall causing
weightlessness, but it is travelling fast enough to miss the earth as it falls.
Similarly, the airplane could also provide weightlessness if it went free fall
as well. However, that ends as the plane hits the ground. </span>
Answer:
As ice melts into water, kinetic energy is being added to the particles. This causes them to be 'excited' and they break the bonds that hold them together as a solid, resulting in a change of state: solid -> liquid.
Explanation:
As we may know, the change in state of an object is due to the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles.
This average kinetic energy is proportional to the temperature of the particles.
This is because heat is a form of energy; by adding energy to ice - heat, you "excite" the water molecules, breaking the interactions in the lattice structure and forming weaker, looser hydrogen-bonding interactions.
This causes the ice to melt. This is demonstrated in the image below.
More generally, when you remove energy - the object cools down, the particles move a lot slower. So slow, that they individually attract other molecules more than before, and this results in a physical change that also changes the state.
