Answer:

gases.

Explanation:

gases have the highest volume. if you compress (increase pressure) a gas, the volume decreases and it will take up less space as a liquid, and if you compress more, the liquid will become a solid.

additionally info: this is generally true, but as you get into more difficult subjects, this rule does not hold. for example, some substances cannot obtain a certain phase of matter when they are a certain temperature and or pressure. but that could be way more out of this questions league.

A car with a mass of 710 kg is traveling at 37 km/hr. It accelerates to a speed of 120 km/hr in 12.6 seconds. What is the net fo

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer: The net force acting on the car 1,299.3 N.

Explanation:

Mass of the car = 710 kg

Initial velocity of the car of the ,u= 37 km/h= 10.27 m/s $(1km\h=\frac{5}{18} m/s)$

Final velocity of the car,v = 120 km/h = 33.33 m/s

time taken b y car = 12.6 sec

v-u=at

$33.33m/s-10.27m/s=23.06 m/s=a(12.6 sec)$

$a = 1.83 m/s^2$

$Force=mass\times acceleration$

$Force=710 kg\times 1.83 m/s^2$

$Force=1,299.3 N$

The net force acting on the car 1,299.3 N.

a 10 kilogram steel ball is dropped from the top of a tower 100 meters high the kinetic energy of the ball just before it sttike

EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

If we assume negligible air resistance and heat loss, we can assume that all of the Gravitational potential energy of the ball will turn into Kinetic energy as it falls toward the ground.

Therefore our Kinetic energy = mgh = (10kg)(9.81N/kg)(100m) = 9,810J.

The turn signal indicator should be activated at least _____ before merging.

Anika [276]

The turn signal indicator should be activated at least FIVE SECONDS before merging. This is done in order to let the other drivers behind you know that you want to turn and to slow down for you, this keeps you and other road users safe and prevent accident.
