Describe the relationship between the forces of attraction and the kinetic energy of particles in a solid, a liquid and a gas

Physics

Answer:

Described below

Explanation:

1) Solids: In solids, the strong attractive forces between the particles ensure that the particles are packed tightly enough and this means little or no movement between each other. However, when they experience vibration which has relationship with the kinetic energy between them

2) Liquids; In liquids due to the lesser forces of attraction between the particles, it means they tend to glide over each another but however, toward the bottom of the container they will settle. This means that the attractive forces between the liquid particles are barely strong enough to hold onto a specific volume. However, they are not strong enough to keep the molecules from sliding over one other.

3) Gases; In gases, there is almost no existing attractive force in most cases and as a result we can say the kinetic energy of the gas molecules is always greater than the attractive force between them and they are therefore far apart from each other and also move independent of each other.

The critical angle for a certain air-liquid surface is 47.7°. What is the index of refraction of the liquid? Round to the neares
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

The index of refraction of the liquid is 1.35.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Critical angle for a certain air-liquid surface, \theta_1=47.7^{\circ}

Let n₁ is the refractive index of liquid and n₂ is the refractive index of air, n₂ =1

Using Snell's law for air liquid interface as :

n_1\ sin\theta_1=n_2\ sin(90)

n_1\ sin(47.7)=1

n_1=\dfrac{1}{sin(47.7)}

n_1=1.35

So, the index of refraction of the liquid is 1.35. Hence, this is the required solution.
