Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When the book was at the shelf, it had only potential energy as potential energy is the energy possessed due to the position of an object.

Therefore, when the book falls from the book shelf it gains kinetic energy as kinetic energy is the energy possessed due to the motion of an object.

Thus, when the books is falling from the top shelf then the motion of book increases therefore, we can conclude that the potential energy decreases as kinetic energy increases.

Josefina and Raul were comparing how sound moves through various mediums and how charge moves through conducting wires. They per
Fed [463]

They found that difference occurs in the speed of both sound and charges occur due to the difference in the type of medium.

Sound and charges needs specific medium for faster movement i.e. sound moves faster in solid as compared to liquid and gas whereas charges moves faster and easily in gold due to lower resistance which is followed by copper. Sound can move from solid, liquid and gases whereas charges move only in solid metal in which free electrons are present. The speed of sound and flow of current are affected due to difference in the arrangement of atoms in solid, liquid and gas.

A high pH value indicates _____.
Mumz [18]

Answer:

A high pH value indicates a high concentration of OH- ion

Explanation:

The higher the OH- ion concentration high will be the pH.In simple words if the concentration of OH- ions are increased then the pH of the solution will also increase which means the solution will turns towards basic with increasing its OH- ion concentration.

  Let us assume that the OH- concentration of a solution is  10-9  so the pOH of that solution will be 9 and the pH will be 5.

  Now the concentration of OH-ion of that solution is increased from 10-9 to 10-8 now the pOH of that solution is 8 and the pH is 6.
