The atoms in a solid move about freely

Physics
1 answer:
ivolga24 [154]3 years ago

No, not exactly.  They jiggle and tremble and vibrate a lot, but
they always basically stay in very nearly the same place.

It's like if you're allowed to go anywhere you want in your jail cell,
you wouldn't exactly call that "moving about freely".

Un objeto se mueve con una rapidez constante de 8 m/s. Esto significa que el objeto: a) Aumenta su rapidez en 8m/s cada segundo
Hatshy [7]

Explanation:

Constant speed means that the object is covering equal distance in equal interval of time. The motion is called uniform motion for such case. In this problem, it is given that an object is moving with a constant speed of 8 m/s. It means that it does not change its speed. It is moving with a single speed constantly.

We can say that it moves 8 meters every second or 800 cm every second.

A dinner plate falls vertically to the floor and breaks up into three pieces, which slide horizontally along the floor. Immediat
Olegator [25]

Answer:

Explanation:

There will be conservation of momentum along horizontal plane because no force acts along horizontal plane.

momentum of first piece = .320 kg x 2 m/s

= 0.64 kg m/s along x -axis.

momentum of second piece = .355 kg x 1.5 m/s

= 0.5325 kg m/s along y- axis .

Let the velocity of third piece be v and it is making angle of θ with x -axis .

Horizontal component of its velocity = .100 kg x v cosθ = .1 v cosθ

vertical  component of its velocity = .100 kg x v sinθ = .1 v sinθ

For making total momentum in the plane zero

.1 v cosθ = 0.64 kg m/s

.1 v sinθ = 0.5325 kg m/s

Dividing

Tanθ = .5325 / .64 = .83

θ = 40⁰.

The angle will be actually 180 + 40 = 220 ⁰ from positive x -axis.

Una pelota recorre 20 m hacia la derecha y luego 10 m hacia la izquierda, todo en un lapso de tiempo de 10 s , cual es si veloci
zvonat [6]

Answer:

v = 1  i ^ m / s,   v = 1 m / s

Explanation:

In this problem we show the difference between vectors and scalars.

The average speed is

          v = Δx / Δt

The bold are vectors            

          Δx = 20-10 = 10 i^  m

           v = 10/10

           v = 1  i ^ m / s

the unit vector indicates that the velocity is on the x-axis

The average speed is

           v =Δx / Δt

           v = 10/10

           v = 1 m / s

in this case we have a scalar

Explain how microorganisms are friend and foe.​
Helga [31]

Answer:

Because they are beneficial

Explanation:

There are microorganisms in our large intestine that synthesis vitamins and allow them to be absorbed into the bloodstream. However a tiny minority are pathogens (disease-causing agents). These pathogens often called germs or bugs, are a threat to all life forms.
