What is solid matter and can we covert matter into something else

Physics
1 answer:
lbvjy [14]3 years ago

Answer: Solid matter is one of the three main states of matter, along with liquid and gas. Matter is the "stuff" of the universe, the atoms, molecules and ions that make up all physical substances. In a solid, these particles are packed closely together and are not free to move about within the substance.

All matter exists as solids, liquids, or gases. These are called the states of matter. Matter can change from one state to another if heated or cooled. If ice (a solid) is heated it changes to water (a liquid).

A 1.70 m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.550 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1
Nikitich [7]
Resistance = ρ * (L/A) and Rf = Ri * ([1 + α * (Tf – Ti)] 
ρ = Resistivity L = length in meters A = cross sectional area in m^2 α = temperature coefficient of resistivity 
L = 1.50 m Area = π * r^2 r = d/2 = 0.25 cm = 2.5 * 10^-3 m Area = π * (2.5 * 10^-3)^2 

The cylindrical rod is similar to a resistor. Since the current is decreasing, the resistance must be increasing. This means the resistance is increasing as the temperature increases. Resistance = Voltage ÷ Current At 20˚, R = 15 ÷ 18.5 At 92˚, R = 15 ÷ 17.2 

Now you know the resistance at the two temperatures. Let’s determine the resistivity at the two temperatures. Resistance = ρ * (L/A) ρ = Resistance * (A/L) 
At 20˚, ρ = (15 ÷ 18.5) * [π * (2.5 * 10^-3)^2] ÷ 1.5 = At 92˚, ρ = (15 ÷ 17.2) * [π * (2.5 * 10^-3)^2] ÷ 1.5 = 
Now you know the resistivity at the two temperatures. Let’s determine the temperature coefficient of resistivity for the material of the rod. 
Rf = Ri * ([1 + α * (Tf – Ti)] Rf = 15 ÷ 17.2, Ri = 15 ÷ 18.5, Tf = 92˚, Ti = 20˚ 
15 ÷ 17.2 = 15 ÷ 18.5 * [1 + α * (92 – 20)] Multiply both sides by (18.5 ÷ 15) (18.5 ÷ 15) * (15 ÷ 17.2) = 1 + α * 72 Subtract 1 from both sides (18.5 ÷ 15) * (15 ÷ 17.2) – 1 = α * 72 Divide both sides by 72 α = 1.05 * 10^-3

Why does the moon's gravity have a greater effect on the earth's ocean than the sun.
White raven [17]

Answer:

Tides on our planet are caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and Sun. Earth's oceans "bulge out" because the Moon's gravity pulls a little harder on one side of our planet (the side closer to the Moon) than it does on the other. The Sun's gravity raises tides, too, but lunar tides are twice as big.

A simple pendulum has a bob of mass M. The bob is on a light string of length . The string is fixed at C. At position A, the str
Vlad [161]

Answer:

v=\sqrt{2gL}

Explanation:

mass of bob = M

string is fixed at C, at position A the string is horizontal and at position B teh string is vertical.

Let the length of the string is L.

At the point C, it has maximum potential energy which is equal to

U = M x g x L   ..... (1)

At the position B, it has maximum kinetic energy and the velocity is v.

K = 1/2 Mv²     ...... (2)

According to the conservation of energy

The potential energy at the position A is equal to the kinetic energy at position B.

M x g x L = 1/2 M x v²

v² = 2 x g x L

v=\sqrt{2gL}

tangare [24]

Answer:

1890J

Explanation:

375+45 = 420kg (total mass)

kinetic energy = 1/2 × mass × velocity²

1/2 × 420 × 3² = 1890J

How does a football work
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

As the football travels up, gravity slows it down until it reaches a point where it stops briefly at its highest peak; then the football comes down, and gravity accelerates it until it hits the ground hard.

Have a great day!
