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.

what was the acceleration of the cart with Low fan speed cm/s squared? what was the acceleration of the cart with medium fan spe

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Explanation:

The attached figure shows data for the cart speed, distance and time.

For low fan speed,

Distance, d = 500 cm

Time, t = 7.4 s

Average velocity,

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{500}{7.4}\\\\v=67.56\ cm/s$

Acceleration,

$a=\dfrac{v}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{67.56}{7.4}\\\\a=9.12\ cm/s^2$

For medium fan speed,

Distance, d = 500 cm

Time, t = 6.4 s

Average velocity,

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{500}{6.4}\\\\v=78.12\ cm/s$

Acceleration,

$a=\dfrac{v}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{78.12}{6.4}\\\\a=12.2\ cm/s^2$

For high fan speed,

Distance, d = 500 cm

Time, t = 5.6 s

Average velocity,

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}\\\\v=\dfrac{500}{5.6}\\\\v=89.28\ cm/s$

Acceleration,

$a=\dfrac{v}{t}\\\\a=\dfrac{89.28}{5.6}\\\\a=15.94\ cm/s^2$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 meters p

bagirrra123 [75]

Complete question is;

A rocket ship starts from rest and turns on its forward booster rockets, causing it to have a constant acceleration of 4 m/s² rightward. After 3s, what will be the velocity of the rocket ship?

Answer:

v = 12 m/s

Explanation:

We are given;

Initial velocity; u = 0 m/s (because ship starts from rest)

Acceleration; a = 4 m/s²

Time; t = 3 s

To find velocity after 3 s, we will use Newton's first equation of motion;

v = u + at

v = 0 + (4 × 3)

v = 12 m/s

The main difference between a series and a parallel circuit is that

ale4655 [162]

C) is correct

series circuit - in the same path : current flow on one path so they are equal on each component and equal to the source's. voltage on each components may be different.

parallel circuit - between same nodes : voltage of the components are equal and equal to the source's. current on each components may be different.
