"In a pure substance all the particles must be identical; therefore pure substances are composed only of elements." Do you agree

with this statement? Why or why not?

I do not agree with the statement.
The "substance" can be a compound.  It's "pure"
as long as there's nothing else in it but its name.

'Pure' water is 100% H₂O with nothing else in it.
'Pure' table salt is 100% NaCl with nothing else in it.
'Pure' carbon dioxide is 100% CO₂ with nothing else in it.

These example substances are all compounds, not elements.

A mass on a spring vibrates in simple harmonic motion at an amplitude of 8.0 cm. If the mass of the object is 0.20 kg and the sp
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Frequency, f = 3.73Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of a simple harmonic 6is given by:

f = w/2pi

But w= Sqrt( k/m)

Where k is the spring constant

And m is the mass

Given:

Mass=0.20kg

Spring constant, k=130N/m

w= Sqrt(130/0.20)

w= Sqrt(650)

w= 25.50 m

Frequency, f = w/2pi

f = 25.50/(2×3.142)

f = 3.73Hz

You send a beam of light from a material with index of refraction 1.21 into an unknown material. In order to help identify this
White raven [17]

Answer:

refractive index of the unknown material is 1.33.

Explanation:

μ₁ = 1.21

incidence angle (i) = 41.9°

refraction angle (r) = 37.3°

Let us assume μ be the refractive index of the unknown material

according to snell's law of refraction.

μ₁ sin i = μ₂ sin r

1.21 × sin 41.9° =  μ × sin 37.3°

μ = 1.33

hence the refractive index of the unknown material comes out top be 1.33

John dragged a wooden block across a table with 4 different surfaces and the results
AnnyKZ [126]

If the surface is rough then the average force needed to move the wooden block will be more as the friction between the surfaces will be more.

Hence, the least force will be required on the smoothest surface and the greatest force will be required for the roughest surface.

a) Hence, the order will be: B > D > A > C

b) When the surface is glued then the force of friction will increase. Hence, it will require more force to move the wooden block on the surface. Hence, the more required will be more than 105 N.
