What determines the state of matter for any substance

Physics
1 answer:
Andrews [41]3 years ago
7 0

Amount of molecules present in the substance

Explanation:

In general state of matter is classified into three types based on the amount of molecules present in the matter. They are widely classified as

  • SOLID
  • LIQUID
  • GAS

SOLID

In solid the molecules are tightly packed without any free space to move inside. Therefore Solids  have strong Inter-Molecular Force of attraction and have definite shape and volume.  

LIQUID      

In Liquid the molecules are  not tightly packed. So that molecules move  freely   inside the matter. Therefore Liquids  have Weaker Inter-Molecular Force of attraction and have no definite shape and  no definite volume.

GAS

In Gas the molecules are loosely packed with  more  free space to move inside. Therefore Gas  have the weakest Inter-Molecular Force of attraction and don't have definite shape and  definite volume.

Ashley is flying a plane that has to reach a gradient of 360m/km in order to take off and not crash. Her goal is to travel from
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

She is likely to crash because her flight gradient is lesser than the flight gradient required gradient to avoid crashing

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The required gradient of the plane Ashley is flying needs to reach in order to take off and not crash = 360 m/km

The initial elevation of the plane Ashley is flying = Sea level = 0 m

The goal Ashley intends to make = Elevation of 1000 m at 2.8 km. distance

∴ Ashley's goal = Traveling from sea level to 1000 m at 2.8 km horizontal distance

We have;

The gradient  = Rate of change of elevation/(Horizontal distance)

Therefore;

The gradient of Ashley's flight = (1000 - 0)/(2.8 - 0) = 357.143 m/km

The gradient of Ashley's flight ≈ 357.143 m/km which is lesser than the required 360 m/km in order to take off and not crash, therefore, she will crash.

A parallel-plate capacitor has a plate area of 0.2m^2 and a plate separation of 0.1mm. To obtain an electric field of 2.0 × 10^6
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

3.536*10^-6 C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the charge is expresses as Q = CV

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

V is the voltage across the capacitor

Get the capacitance

C = ε0A/d

ε0 is the permittivity of the dielectric = 8.84 x 10-12 F/m

A is the area = 0.2m²

d is the plate separation = 0.1mm = 0.0001m

Substitute

C = 8.84 x 10-12 * 0.2/0.0001

C = 1.768 x 10-8 F

Get the potential difference V

Using the formula for Electric field intensity

E = V/d

2.0 × 10^6  = V/0.0001

V = 2.0 × 10^6  * 0.0001

V = 2.0 × 10^2V

Get the charge on each plate.

Q = CV

Q =  1.768 x 10-8 * 2.0 × 10^2

Q = 3.536*10^-6 C

Hence the magnitude of the charge on each plate should be 3.536*10^-6 C

You are piloting a helicopter which is rising vertically at a uniform velocity of 14.70 m/s. When you reach 196.00 m, you see Ba
Cloud [144]

Answer:

The ball reaches Barney  head in  t = 8 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The rise velocity is  v  =  14.70 \  m/s

  The height considered is h =  196 \  m

   The horizontal velocity of the large object is  v_h  =  8.50 \  m/s

   

Generally from kinematic equation  

   s = ut + \frac{1}{2} gt^2

Here s is the distance of the object from Barney head ,

        u is the velocity of the object along the vertical axis which is equal but opposite to the velocity of the helicopter

So  

     u = -14.7 m/s

So

    196  = -14.7 t  + \frac{1}{2} * 9.8 * t^2

=  4.9 t^2 - 14.7t - 196 = 0

Solving the above equation using quadratic formula  

    The value of  t obtained is  t = 8 \ s
