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.

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Total internal reflection is going on. The refractive index of water is about 1.3, so sin 90/sin r=1/sinr=1.3. So the fish can only see objects outside the water within about 50 degrees of the vertical

What is the gravity force between two stars with mass of 5,000,000 kg and 1,000,000 kg if the distance between them is 100 m
Luda [366]

Answer:

0.0334N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

M1  = 5 x 10⁶kg

M2  = 1 x 10⁶kg

Distance  = 100m

Unknown:

Gravitational force  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the Newton's law of universal gravitation.

     Fg  = \frac{G m1 m2}{r^{2} }  

G is the universal gravitation constant

m is the mass

r is the distance

         Fg  = \frac{6.67 x 10^{-11} x 5 x 10^{6}  x 1 x 10^{6} }{100^{2} }   = 0.0334N
