Liquid can flow but solid cannot give reason ​

Physics
1 answer:
Airida [17]3 years ago
6 0

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>well..</em>

<em>Explana</em><em>tion</em><em>:</em>

<em>L</em><em>iquid</em><em> can flow but solid cannot because of differences in their properties</em>

<em>property of liquid which lets it flow:</em>

  • <em>i</em><em>nter-particular</em><em> space is large</em>
  • <em>inter-particular attraction is small</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>hese</em><em> properties tend to make the molecules of liquid free to flow</em><em> </em>

<em>property</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>solid</em><em> </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>tends</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>obstruct</em><em> </em><em>flow</em><em>:</em>

  • <em>inter-particular</em><em> </em><em>spa</em><em>c</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>small</em><em> </em><em>and</em><em> </em><em>so</em><em> </em><em>it's </em><em>compac</em><em>t</em>
  • <em>inter-molecular</em><em> </em><em>attra</em><em>ction</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>strong</em><em> </em><em>hence</em><em> </em><em>no</em><em> </em><em>tenden</em><em>cy</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>flow</em>

<em>H</em><em>o</em><em>p</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>this</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em>!</em>

Yanka [14]

Answer:

Either heat added or mechanical work done.

Explanation:

Since he found stirring rod on the desk and a cigarette lighter. This means that the beaker was probably either heated with the aid of fire from the lighter.

Also, the stirring rod could have been used to stir the water which will increase the kinetic energy which also means an increase in temperature.

Thus, it's either heat was added or mechanical work was done as a result of stirring.

A string has its 4th harmonic at 31.5 Hz. What is the fundamental frequency?
seropon [69]

Given data

*The given 4th harmonic frequency is 31.5 Hz

The fundamental frequency is calculated as

\begin{gathered} f_n=\frac{31.5}{4} \\ =7.875\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}

Hence, the fundamental frequency is 7.875 Hz

A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the
Dimas [21]

Answer:

98N and 147N

Explanation:

We have the following information:

m=50kg\\\mu_s =0.4\\\mu_k = 0.2\\F=140N

We can find the static fricton force as follow,

F=\mu_s * N

Where N is the normal force (mg)

F=0.3*50*9.8\\F=147N

Static friction force at 147N is greater than the force applied hence body does not move.

F=\mu_k N = 0.2*50*9.8= 98N
