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.

A chicken crosses a 7.50 m wide road at a constant speed of 0.367 m/s. How much time does it take to cross (in seconds)?

mars1129 [50]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

= 20.436 seconds

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Speed = Distance × time

Therefore;

Time = Distance/speed

Distance = 7.50 m, speed = 0.367 m/s

Time = 7.50/0.367

<u>= 20.436 seconds </u>

Use Snell's Law to solve the following:

azamat

Answer:

1.171

Explanation:

if n₁sinΘ₁=n₂sinΘ₂, then n₂=n₁sinΘ₁ / sinΘ₂;

$n_2=\frac{1.5*sin45}{sin65}=\frac{1.5*0.707}{0.906} =1.1705$

Newton’s second law of motion addresses the relationship between what two variables that influence the force on a body?

Helen [10]

Answer:

A. Mass and acceleration

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, the resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum
Therefore; F = ma , where F is the resultant force, m is the mass, and a is the acceleration of the body.
<u>Resultant force depends on the acceleration and the mass of a body in motion, an increase in acceleration causes a corresponding increase in resultant force.</u> A body with higher mass will have a larger strong force if the acceleration is kept constant.

A disk of radius R = 11 cm is pulled along a frictionless surface with a force of F = 16 N by a string wrapped around the edge.A

kenny6666 [7]

Answer: 1.76 Nm

Explanation:

If the force pulls horizontally, this means that the force is tangent to the disk at any point of the string unwinding process, so the distance d is irrelevant.

In this case, the torque is directly given by the product of the force times the distance perpendicular to the center of the disk, which is just the radius, as follows:

τ = F * r = 16 N. (0.11) m = 1.76 Nm
