As a substance is changing from a liquid to a gas, the distance between its molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same.
Option A
<u>Explanation:</u>
The external energy required to change from one state to another is mostly considered as temperature. So on increase in temperature, the solid changes to liquid and the liquid changes to gases. But the temperature remains constant in the system after changing the phase.
This is because when the temperature is increased on a liquid system, the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and thus the molecules will be distanced from each other. If we consider liquid - gas phase transition, the gas molecules are farther distanced compared to liquid molecules.
So the rise in temperature is utilized for breaking the bonds and also to provide the kinetic energy to the gas molecules as they are tend to move more freely compared to liquid. Thus, the distance between the molecules increases, and the temperature of the system remains the same on changing from liquid to gas.
Answer:
The total voltage of the circuit is 18 volts.
Explanation:
We have, three identical resistors of resistance 3 ohms are connected in series in a circuit.
For a series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by the sum of individual resistances i.e.
Let V is the voltage of the battery if the current in the circuit is 2 A. So,
So, the total voltage of the circuit is 18 volts.
This is in the thermosphere which is at an altitude of 85-520km
Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position or configuration . And energy is the capacity of doing work since power is work divided by time therefore change in potential energy divided by time is equal to the power of the object.
Answer:
15.75 m
Explanation:
First, let's look at the top brick by itself. In order for it not to tip over the bottom brick, its center of gravity must be right at the edge of the bottom brick. So the edge of the top brick must be 10.5 m from the edge of the bottom brick.
Now let's look at both bricks as a combined mass. We know the total length of this combined brick is 10.5 m + 21 m = 31.5 m. And we know that for it to not tip over the edge of the surface, its center of gravity must be at the edge. So the edge of the combined brick must be 31.5 m / 2 = 15.75 m from the edge of the surface.
