Explain why gases are more compressible than solid

Physics
1 answer:
Oduvanchick [21]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

If we put pressure on a solid or a liquid, there is essentially no change in volume. ... The kinetic-molecular theory explains why gases are more compressible than either liquids or solids. Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.

Balboa Park in San Diego has an outdoor organ. When the air temperature increases, the fundamental frequency of one of the organ
musickatia [10]

The fundamental frequency of one of the organ pipes will go up or increase.

When pressured air is forced into an organ pipe, it echoes at a particular pitch, generating the sound of the pipe organ. Each pipe has been adjusted to a particular pitch on the musical scale.

A musical instrument called an outdoor pipe organ is used to perform music. It produces some calming tones and has a really serene sound. The organ pipe produces the sound of the outdoor organ. The wavelength of the sound is also dependent on the length of the pipe. The fundamental frequency of one of the organ pipes will grow as the speed of the sound increases as the ambient air temperature rises.

The correct option is (c).

Imagine you can take all the atoms in a single drop of water and put them on a single line as closely packed as they can be. How
tester [92]

Answer:

option a

Explanation:

Size of an atom (diameter) = 10⁻¹⁰ m

There are approximately 10²² atoms in a single drop of water. If they are put in  a straight line, the length would be

l = diameter of an atom × number of atoms

l = 10²²×  10⁻¹⁰ m = 10¹² m

Distance between the Sun and the Earth is 1.47 × 10¹¹ m. The calculated length is greater than the distance between the Sun and the Earth.

Thus, option a is correct.

A runner of mass 53.0 kg runs around the edge of a horizontal turntable mounted on a vertical, frictionless axis through its cen
const2013 [10]

Answer:

0.336 rad/s

Explanation:

\omega_1 = Angular speed of the turntable = -0.2 rad/s

R = Radius of turntable = 2.9 m

I = Moment of inertia of turntable = 76\ kgm^2

M = Mass of turn table = 53 kg

v_1 = Magnitude of the runner's velocity relative to the earth  = 3.6 m/s

As the momentum in the system is conserved we have

Mv_1R+I\omega_1=(I + MR^2)\omega_2\\\Rightarrow \omega_2=\dfrac{Mv_1R+I\omega_1}{I + MR^2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_2=\dfrac{53\times 3.6-76\times 0.2}{76+53\times 2.9^2}\\\Rightarrow \omega_2=0.336\ rad/s

The angular velocity of the system if the runner comes to rest relative to the turntable which is the required answer is 0.336 rad/s
