The "gas" is ionized and may correctly be described as a fourth state of matter - a plasma - rather than a gas. Both a gas and a plasma would expand indefinitely if not contained somehow but the ionized particles of a plasma could be controlled electromagnetically whereas a gas could not. A typical plasma is contained in an illuminated neon sign.

Irina rode her bike to work at an average speed of 16 miles per hour. It started to rain, so she got a ride home along the same
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

0.7 hours

Explanation:

From the way back, we can calculate the distance between Irina's work and Irina's home. In fact, we know that the car takes 0.4 hourse traveling at 27 mph, so the distance covered should be

d=vt=(27 mph)(0.4 h)=10.8 mi

When Irina rides to work with her bike, she travels at a speed of 16 mph. So we can find the time she takes by dividing the total distance (10.8 miles) by her speed:

t=\frac{d}{v}=\frac{10.8 mi}{16 mph}=0.7 h

Observe the two scenarios involving electrically charged objects. Predict what will happen when you bring the objects close toge
Margarita [4]

Answer:

When one object is rubbed against another, static electricity can be created. This is because the rubbing creates a negative charge that is carried by electrons. The electrons can build up to produce static electricity. For example, when you shuffle your feet across a carpet, you are creating many surface contacts between your feet and the carpet, allowing electrons to transfer to you, thereby building up a static charge on your skin. When you touch another person or an object, you can suddenly discharge the static as an electrical shock.

Explanation:

Similarly, when you rub a balloon on your head it causes opposite static charges to build up both on your hair and the balloon. Consequently, when you pull the balloon slowly away from your head, you can see these two opposite static charges attracting one another and making your hair stand up.
