Using kinetic energy explain why a liquid has a definite volume but a gas does not

The attractions between the particles in a liquid are strong enough to keep the particles close together. Without any significant attractions between particles in a gas, the particles are free to expand into any volume that is available

If length of wire is doubled keeping the diameter constant ,its Youngs modulus will be​
Luda [366]

Answer:

Y = Stress / Strain = (F / A) / (l / L)   where l is the change in length

Since L is doubled and A remains the same one would expect l, the change in length to also double so Y remains the same.

As an example think of hanging a weight from a spring and the same weight from a similar spring of twice the length - one would expect the longer spring to show twice the extension of the shorter spring.

If the force of kinetic friction on a crate is 50 N and the weight of the crate is
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

The coefficient of kinetic friction μ = 0.278

Explanation:

The frictional force on the crate is given by F = μN where μ = the coefficient of kinetic friction and N = normal force. The normal force equals the weight of the crate W = 180 N.

Since the kinetic friction F = 50 N, and the normal force which is the weight of the crate equals N = W = 180 N, the coefficient of kinetic friction μ is given by μ = F/N

= 50 N/180 N

= 0.278

So, the coefficient of kinetic friction μ = 0.278

What are Prevailing Westerlies? a Calm area with rising air b Wind blowing West to East away from horse latitudes c Wind blowing
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

b Wind blowing West to East away from horse latitudes

Explanation: prevailing Westerlies are winds which blows away from the horse latitudes, this type of wind blow towards the poles between latitude 30 degrees to latitude 60degrees.

Prevailing Westerlies are known to be strongest in the winter months in the and weakest in the summer months

They are also very strong when the pressures are low over the poles and also very weak when the pressures are high over the poles.
