my hypothesis is that If you drop a piece of buttered toast, it will land butter side down.


I tested it by dropping 10 pieces of buttered toast off the table and noted on which side it landed


It could be falsified cause I just made all of this up. In essence, it's like flipping a coin, 50/50 chance so I could say that 5 landed butter up and 5 landed butter down.

How would you describe the appearance of the substance after the phase change?
Leona [35]

Answer:

Substances can change phase—often because of a temperature change. At low temperatures, most substances are solid; as the temperature increases, they become liquid; at higher temperatures still, they become gaseous. The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting.

The volume of 2.0 kg of helium in a piston-cylinder device is initially 7 m3. Now the helium is compressed to 5 m3 while its pre
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

A) T1 = 269.63 K

T2 = 192.59 K

B) W = -320 KJ

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial volume: V1 = 7 m³

Final Volume; V2 = 5 m³

Constant Pressure; P = 160 KPa

Mass; m = 2 kg

To find the initial and final temperatures, we will use the ideal gas formula;

T = PV/mR

Where R is gas constant of helium = R = 2.0769 kPa.m/kg

Thus;

Initial temperature; T1 = (160 × 7)/(2 × 2.0769) = 269.63 K

Final temperature; T2 = (160 × 5)/(2 × 2.0769) = 192.59 K

B) world one is given by the formula;

W = P(V2 - V1)

W = 160(5 - 7)

W = -320 KJ

If an object moving at 12 m/s has a kinetic energy of 72 j what is the mass
EleoNora [17]
Simply, apply the formula E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} and insert the values of m = mass, v = velocity and E = Energy.
The result will be 72J =  \frac{1}{2}m(12m/s)^{2}, m = 1 kg
