I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. When liquid gold becomes a solid, its particles get closer together. This happens due to the rearrangement of particles in a physical change. Hope this answers the question.

Answer: option D. The rearrangement of particles in a physical change.

Explanation:

1) The change occured when a liquid substance becomes a solid is named freezing.

Yes, such as when liquid water becomes ice.

2) Such change is a change of phase or physical state of the matter. As such it is just a physical change: the chemical composition of the substance and the chemical bonds do not change.

3) At atomic or molecular level, what happens with the particles during freezing is that they come closer and are arranged in fixed positons one respect to the each other, so the particles do not slide over others. By occupying a fixed position, the substance acquires a definite shape and volume, and is not able to flow.

Answer:

Greater than

Explanation:

Here, angular momentum is conserved.

l_1\omega_1 =l_2\omega_2

When the cloud shrinks under the right conditions, a star may be formed.

Thus, Diameter of clouds are much higher than a star.

Moment of inertia of cloud is greater than the star's inertial.

so, angular velocity of the star would be greater than angular velocity of the rotating gas.

A flashlight converts?
sammy [17]

Answer:

Energy conversion in flashlight.

Explanation:

When the switch of a flashlight is on, then the batteries inside them will be connected in a circuit and chemical energy from the batteries will be converted into electrical energy and then the electrical energy will be converted into light energy.

Light energy is also called electromagnetic energy.

Hence, among the given options the correct one is the first option that is:

1. Electrical energy into electromagnetic energy is the answer.

Un cubo de madera de densidad 0.780 g/cm³ mide 11.2 cm en un lado. Cuando se coloca en agua, ¿qué altura del bloque flotará sobr
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

2.464 cm above the water surface

Explanation:

Recall that for the cube to float, means that the volume of water displaced weights the same as the weight of the block.

We calculate the weight of the block multiplying its density (0.78 gr/cm^3) times its volume (11.2^3  cm^3):

weight of the block = 0.78 * 11.2^3  gr

Now the displaced water will have a volume equal to the base of the cube (11.2 cm^2) times the part of the cube (x) that is under water. Recall as well that the density of water is 1 gr/cm^3.

So the weight of the volume of water displaced is:

weight of water = 1 * 11.2^2 * x

we make both weight expressions equal each other for the floating requirement:

0.78 * 11.2^3 = 11.2^2 * x

then x = 0.78 * 11.2 cm = 8.736 cm

This "x" is the portion of the cube under water. Then to estimate what is left of the cube above water, we subtract it from the cube's height (11.2 cm) as follows:

11.2 cm - 8.736 cm = 2.464 cm

An airplane dropped a flare from a height of 2860 feet above a lake. How many seconds did it take for the flare to reach the wat
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: 13.2 seconds.

Explanation: using equation of motion; S= ut +1/2at² where u = initial velocity=0

S= distance travelled

a = acceleration due gravity

t= time.

1 foot = 0.305m so,

S= 2860 feet =872.3m

S= ut+1/2 at²

872.3 = 0×t + 1/2×10 × t²

872.3 =0 + 5t²

T²= 872.3/5

T²= 174.46

Take the square root of T we then have;

t = 13.2 seconds to one decimal place.
