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.

A sport car moving at constant speed travels 110m in 5.0 s. if it then brakes and comes to a stop in 4.0 s, what is the magnitud

stiks02 [169]

D = 110 m, t = 5 s
v o = 110 cs : 5 m = 22 m/s
-------------------------------------
v = v o - a t
v = 0 m/s, v o = 22 m/s, t = 4 s
0 = 22 - 4 a
4 a = 22
a = 22 : 4
a = 5.5 m/s²
g = 9.80 m/s²
9.80 : 5.5 = 0.56
Answer:
The magnitude of its acceleration is 5.5 m/s or 0.56 g.

Radio waves travel 300,000,000 m/s. The frequency is 101,700,000. ehats the wavelength

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

we have formula of frequency :

frequency(f)= speed of sound(c)/wavelength(λ)

for wavelength we swipe it with frequency as follows

λ=c/f

λ=300,000,000/101,700,000

λ=2.949

if you have several different substances mixed together, like Italian salad dressing, where do the most dense materials go where

Alecsey [184]

If you've ever mixed water and oil together,you've probably noticed that the oil rises to the top and the water stays at the bottom-- no matter how much you try to shake them. This is because oil is less dense than water, making it float to the top. The molecules in oil are larger than those in water, so they don't pack as tightly together as they do in water. In a mixture of oil and vinegar, the oil floats on the vinegar/water mixture, while the solids sink to the bottom. So, if one material floats over another, the material on top is less dense.

Let me know if this helps! :)

Help awnser need experts

pishuonlain [190]

12. The answer would be C. 1.50 s. This is because if you divide 60 by 40, you will get 1.5.

13. For this one I'm not sure, but what I can tell you is that the heavier something is the faster it will sink, the lighter it is, it will float.
