A student blows up a balloon and then places it in a very cold freezer. After a few hours, the balloon has shrunk. Which of the

following best explains why the balloon shrunk? A. As the balloon gets cooler, the molecules gain energy and move closer together, causing the balloon to shrink. B. As the balloon gets cooler, the molecules lose energy and move closer together causing the balloon to shrink. C. As the balloon gets cooler, the molecules break apart, decreasing the volume of the gas. D. As the balloon absorbs energy, the molecules move more quickly, making the balloon expand.

A 0.200-kilogram ball A is traveling at a velocity of 2 meters/second. It hits a 1-kilogram stationary ball B. Which statement i
ioda

As we know that collision is elastic  so we will have

e = 1 = \frac{v_2 - v_1}{2 - 0}

v_2 - v_1 = 2 m/s

also we can use momentum conservation

P_{1i} + P_{2i} = P_{1f} + P_{2f}

0.200(2m/s) + 0 = 0.200 v_1 + 1v_2

0.4 = 0.2v_1 + v_2

now from above two equations we will have

1.2 v_1 = -1.6

v_1 = -1.33 m/s

also we have

v_2 = 0.66 m/s

so both balls will separate after collision and move in opposite direction as the final velocities are opposite in sign

So correct answer will be

<em>D. The balls separate and move in opposite directions.</em>

What is the process by which water dissolves certain minerals in the soil and carries them away?
Mademuasel [1]
The correct answer would be LEACHING. When at first thought, it would seem that it is erosion. Erosion not only eliminates the soil minerals, it also washes everything else and that includes the soil. <span>In a different manner, Leaching can happen when certain minute particles of the minerals are melted and mixes with water. All that is left in the soil will be the bigger particles that are not soluble by water. In this manner, only a soil that cannot properly nourish remains as it is stripped off of minerals.</span>

When a object is electrically charged, ____ have been added or removed.
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

B, electrons.

Explanation:

An electrical charge is created when electrons are transferred to or removed from an object. Because electrons have a negative charge, when they are added to an object, it becomes negatively charged. When electrons are removed from an object, it becomes positively charged.

An object carries a +15.5 uC charge.
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

3.67 N

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Charge of 1st object (q₁) = +15.5 μC

Charge of 2nd object (q₂) = –7.25 μC

Distance apart (r) = 0.525 m

Force (F) =?

Next, we shall convert micro coulomb (μC) to coulomb (C). This can be obtained as follow:

For the 1st object

1 μC = 1×10¯⁶ C

Therefore,

15.5 μC = 15.5 × 1×10¯⁶

15.5 μC = 15.5×10¯⁶ C

For the 2nd object:

1 μC = 1×10¯⁶ C

Therefore,

–7.25 μC = –7.25 × 1×10¯⁶

–7.25 μC = –7.25×10¯⁶ C

Finally, we shall determine the force. This can be obtained as follow:

Charge of 1st object (q₁) = +15.5×10¯⁶ C

Charge of 2nd object (q₂) = –7.25×10¯⁶ C

Distance apart (r) = 0.525 m

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Force (F) =?

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = 9×10⁹ × 15.5×10¯⁶ × 7.25×10¯⁶ / 0.525²

F = 3.67 N

Therefore, the force on the object is 3.67 N
