Answer: by breaking it up into smaller pieces

Explanation:

Rate of solubility of solids in liquids depend on 4 main factors:

1.) Temperature: Increasing the temperature means more solute can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent because the energy of the solute particles increases and more it can interact with the solvent particles. The rate of dissolution of solid also increases in liquids.

2.) Size of the solute particles: If the solute particles is present in smaller size, more it can be dissolved because decreasing the size increases the surface area of the solute particles. Hence, the dissolution increases.

3.) Stirring: This process brings fresh solvent particles to come in contact with the solute particles and hence, fast stirring increases the rate of dissolution.

Thus the sugar chunk can be dissolved faster by breaking it into smaller pieces.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The speed of the wave in the rope is 2 m/s

Explanation:

1. Data:

a) ν = 4 Hz

b) λ = 0.5 m

c) s = ?

2. Physical principles and formula:

The propagation of waves in a rope is a classical example of transverse waves: the pulse is inflected in the vertical direction and the wave travels in the horizontal direction, i.e. the pulse or vibration is perpendicular to the motion of the media particles.

The equation that relates speed (s), wavelength (λ), frequency (ν) is:

distance = speed × time

wavelength = speed × period

wavelenfth = speed / frequency

λ = s / ν

meter = (meter/second) / second⁻¹

m = (m /s) / s⁻¹

3. Solution:

λ = s / ν⇒ s = λ·ν

s = 0.5 m × 4 Hz = 2 m/s

Which of the following is true about nuclear fusion

Sonja [21]

Answer:

i would assume that it would be (a)

Explanation:

The Sun generates its energy by nuclear fusion

NUCLEAR FISSION is when the heavy atom is split

fusion energy is scientifically feasible. Plasma conditions that are very close to those required in a fusion reactor are now routinely reached in experiments

mass gets lost is nuclear fusion

so (a) is the most accurate

Liquids do not have the energy to overcome the ___ and move to the gaseous state.

Ugo [173]

Answer - Inter-molecular attractions

Explanation-

As we know everything around us is made up of matter that means everything has molecules as their basic structure. The state of anything is decided by the spaces between the molecules.

The state of the objects that have strong inter-molecular attractions a solid and gradually the lesser will be in state of liquid and gas. The attraction between the molecules is overcome only when a certain amount of energy is provided from outside.
