Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When gas is compressed then molecules of gas will come closer to each other. Though molecules already had kinetic energy and on compressing the molecules will collide more rapidly with each other.

As a result, energy will be released in the form of heat. Thus, there will be rise in temperature.

Hence, we can conclude that when a gas is compressed, the molecules are pushed closer together causing the gas to rise in temperature.

The answer is "rise in temperature". Think of when you're in a crowded place. When it's crowded it gets hot because of the energy radiating off of everyone around you.

Answer:

1.The force required to stop the shopping cart is, F = 12.25 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The mass of the shopping cart, m = 7 kg

The initial velocity of the shopping cart, u = 3.5 m/s

The final velocity of the shopping cart, v = 0 m/s

The time period of acceleration, t = 2 s

The change in momentum of the cart,

                                      p = m(u - v)

                                         = 7 (3.5 - 0)

                                         = 24.5 kg m/s

The force is defined as the rate of change of momentum. To stop the shopping cart, the force required is given by the formula

                                           F = p / t

                                               = 24.5 / 2

                                               = 12.25 N

Hence, the force required to stop the shopping cart is, F = 12.25 N

2.

We have: F = m × v/t

Here, m = 8500 Kg

v = 20 m/s

t = 10 s

Substitute their values into the expression,  

F = 8500 × 20/10

F = 8500 × 2

F = 17000 N

In short, final answer would be 17000 N

Hope this helps!!

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

L = 0.635m

Explanation:

This problem involves the concept of stationary waves in pipes. For pipes closed at one end,

The frequency f = nv/4L for n = 1,3,5....n

For pipes open at both ends

f = nv/2L for n = 1,2,3,4...n

Assuming the pipe is closed at one end and that velocity of sound is 343m/s in air. If we are right we will obtain a whole number for n.

The film solution can be found in the attachment below.

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

spiral

Explanation:

A galaxy may be defined as the huge collection of celestial bodies like the stars, planets, dark matters, dust and gases and the solar systems. It is derived from the Greek work, 'Galaxias' , which means "milky". There are many types of galaxies. They are : Spiral galaxy, Elliptical galaxy, Irregular galaxy and Barred spiral galaxy.

A spiral galaxy is one which contains a sphere shaped bulge which consists of old stars and it is devoid of dust and gas. Its circular shape composes a disk. It is of circular shape having most of the objects concentrated in its center.
