Answer: When a liquid substance is poured into a vessel, it takes the shape of the vessel, and, as long as the substance stays in the liquid state, it will remain inside the vessel. Furthermore, when a liquid is poured from one vessel to another, it retains its volume (as long as there is no vaporization or change in temperature) but not its shape.

Explanation: A solid has a definite shape and volume. A liquid has a definite volume, but takes the shape of its container. A gas lacks either a defined shape or volume. Plasma is similar to a gas in that its particles are very far apart, but a gas is electrically neutral and plasma has a charge.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

92.81 psia.

Explanation:

The density of water by multiplying its specific gravity by the density of sea water.

SG = density of sea water/density of water

ρ = SG x ρw

1 kg/m3 = 62.4 lbm/ft^3

= 1.03 * 62.4

= 64.27lbm/ft^3.

The absolute pressure at 175 ft below sea level as this is the location of the submarine.

P = Patm +ρgh

= 14.7 + 64.27 * 32.2 * 175

Converting to pound force square inch,

= 14.7 + 64.27 * (32.2ft/s^2) * (175ft) * (1lbf/32.2lbm⋅ft/s^2) * (1ft^2/144in^2 )

= 14.7 + 78.11 psia

= 92.81 psia.

-A 180 kg hippo is riding a bicycle at a speed of 6.0
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

0.0675 seconds

Explanation:

From the question,

We apply newton's second law of motion

F = m(v-u)/t.................... Equation 1

Where F = force exert by the brake, v = final speed, u = initial speed m = mass of the bicycle, t = time.

make t the subject of the equation

t = m(v-u)/F................... Equation 2

Given: m = 180 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (comes to stop), F = -1600 N ( agianst the dirction of motion)

Substitute these value into equation 2

t = 180(0-6.0)/-1600

t = -1080/-1600

t = 0.0675 seconds.

Which one of the following scenarios accurately describes a condition in which resonance can occur? A. A column of air has a hei
Butoxors [25]
The correct option is B.
Resonance is said to occur when one object which is vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces the second object into vibrational motion. When resonance is achieved a big loud voice is usually heard. Resonance generally requires three conditions to occur:
1. An object that has a natural frequency.
2. A force that is functioning at the same frequency as the natural frequency.
3. Prevention of energy loss.
