What state of matter can easily be compressed (squeezed into a much smaller space)? *

Physics
1 answer:
avanturin [10]3 years ago
6 0

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.

Calculated the measurement uncertainty for Kinetic Energy when :mass = 1.3[kg] +/- 0.4[kg]velocity= 5.2 [m/s] +/- 0.2 [m/s]KE= 1
andriy [413]

Answer:

\rm KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Mass, \rm m\pm\Delta m = 1.3\pm 0.4\ kg.
  • Velocity, \rm v\pm \Delta v = 5.2\pm 0.2\ m/s.

where,

\rm \Delta m,\ \Delta v are the uncertainties in mass and velocity respectively.

The kinetic energy is given by

\rm KE = \dfrac 12 mv^2 = \dfrac 12 \times 1.3\times 5.2^2=17.576\approx 17.6\ J.

The uncertainty in kinetic energy is given as:

\rm \dfrac{\Delta KE}{KE}=\dfrac{\Delta m}{m}+\dfrac{2\Delta v}{v}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=\dfrac{0.4}{1.3}+\dfrac{2\times 0.2}{5.2}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=0.384\\\Rightarrow \Delta KE = 17.6\times 0.384 = 6.7854\ J\approx6.8\ J\\\\Thus,\\\\KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.

As an emergency vehicle approaches Bob and moves away from Jill, how does the actual frequency of the siren change? A) As an eme
Tamiku [17]
The correct answer is: 
<span>C) The actual frequency of the siren does not change despite appearances.

In fact, Bob will observe an increase in the apparent frequency as the emergency vehicle approaches him, while Jill will observe a decrease in the apparent frequency as the emergency vehicle moves away from him, because of the Doppler effect (the relative velocity between the observer and the source of the sound is changing), but this effect involves the apparent frequency, while the real frequency of the siren will remain the same.</span>
