Solids, liquids and gases :
In solids the particles like molecules of the substance - are very close to each other. They cannot move far from their positions. In liquids they are separated by some more distance. SO molecules are freely moving inside liquid. But in gases the molecules are free to move with in the volume.
Gaseous molecules have higher speeds.

Solids have good conductivity of electricity. Some liquids are also conductive. gases may be less conductive.

Gases have no shape of their own. Liquids do not have a shape too. Solids can have some shape and retain their shape.

Gases and Liquids flow. Solids do not flow.

Many gases may be invisible or may be faint in color. Visibility of liquids and solids is high.

Gases may not taste. they may smell. Solids and liquids may taste and may or may not smell.

Solids may be transparent to light or may be opaque. Gases may be highly transparent to light.

Sound travels in solids faster than in gases.

The current code of ethics in p</span>sychological research states that researchers absolutely must debrief human test subjects at the end of every study regardless or whether or not harm or deception was involved.

Debriefing a subject after a study is an essential opportunity for the researcher to explain the purpose and aim of the study to the subject, make sure the subject is not harmed or mentally disturbed, clarify why deception was used (if deception was involved) and overall, to clarify any questions or doubts the subject might have.

This dude was sitting in the chair. Someone pulls the chair out from under him. He does not move in the direction of the chair.

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

This shows inertia because inertia is an object's resistance to change in motion. When the person (imma call them a she) who pulled the chair from under the guy did that, the chair was the one affected by the force of the girl, not the guy. The guy continued heading in the direction he was originally going, which was down.

At least, that's about how I would answer this question.
