The liquid in a thermometer is sometimes colored alcohol but can also be a metallic liquid called mercury. Mercury and alcohol expand when heated and shrink when cooled. Inside the glass tube of a thermometer, the liquid has no place to go but up when the temperature is hot and down when the temperature is cold. That's how a thermometer that uses liquid to measure temperature.

A rule of thumb is that liquid expands when heated, so when liquid is in a given space one can measure how far the liquid moves when it gets heated.

rjkz [21]

Not exactly the best way to describe it but, it is used to calculate resistance of a lever as in the use of a pry bar or pulley. Technology used to increase output with little input.

Match the type of boundary with it's characteristic

vodomira [7]

Answer:

Transform= not destroyed or created

Divergent= crust created

Convergent= crust destroyed

Explanation:

The plates move in the opposite or away from each other at a transforming plate boundary. The two platform borders are not produced or destroyed in this case. As both plates converge on each other and thus destroy the plates for converging plate boundaries. When the plate is divergent, both plates shift away from each other by opening up and solidification for a new crust.

The lower the value of the coefficient of friction,the_the resistance to sliding

malfutka [58]

Answer:

lower

Explanation:

The lower the value of the coefficient of friction, the lower the resistance to sliding.

The coefficient of friction is the ratio of the frictional force and the normal force pressing two surfaces in contact together.

U = $\frac{F}{N}$

U is the coefficient of friction

F is the frictional force

N is the normal force

We see that coefficient of friction is directly proportional to frictional force.

Can a body have constant speed and still be acclerating ? Give an Example

Allushta [10]

Hi Pupil Here's Your answer :::

➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡➡

An object moving with constant speed can be accelerated if direction of motion changes. For example, an object moving with a constant speed in a circular path has an acceleration because its direction of motion changes continuously.
