Why the formation of sand is a physical change.

1 answer:

7 0

This is a physical change because there isn’t a change in composition of the substance, sand. It is only changing the shape, not having a chemical reaction of any sort.
I hope this helps!

Daltons theory was identified using

Margaret [11]

<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

Dalton’s theory can be classified by the following hypotheses:

1) All material was formed of particles, unbreakable and strong construction segments.

2) All particles of a given component are indistinguishable in volume and characteristics

3) Compounds are determined by a mixture of two or more distinct kinds of atoms.

4) Chemical responses appeared in the rearrangement of the reacting atoms.

This theory was to explain all matter in terms of atoms and their characteristics, the law of conservation of volume and the law of constant composition.

A coat rack weighs 65.0 lbs when it is filled with winter coats and 40.0 lbs when it is empty. The base of the coat rack has an

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.

Explanation:

First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:

P₁ = F/A

where,

P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?

F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²

P₁ = 0.088 psi

Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.

P₂ = F/A

where,

P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?

F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb

A = Base Area = 452.4 in²

Therefore,

P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²

P₂ = 0.144 psi

Now, the difference between both pressures is:

ΔP = P₂ - P₁

ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi

Which quantities below of a solid object on this planet are NOT the same as on Earth?

AysviL [449]

Answer:

Weight, acceleration when it falls vertically, are not same as that of earth.

Explanation:

Weight of the object is given by the product of mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity of the planet.

So, the weight of object is not same as that on earth.

The mass is defined as the amount of matter contained in the object.

So, the mass of the object is same as that of earth.

The volume of the object is defined as the space occupied by the object.

So, the volume of the object is same as that of earth.

The density is defined as the ratio of mass of the object to its volume.

So, the density of the object is same as that of earth.

The acceleration due to gravity on a planet depends on the mass of planet and radius of planet.

So, the acceleration is not same as that of earth.

The color of the object is its characteristic.

It is same as that of earth.

Thought Experiment: A monkey escapes from a zoo and climbs a tree. After failing to entice the monkey down, a zookeeper fires a

Andreyy89

Explanation:

When bullet is shot towards the monkey then let say the distance of monkey from the bullet is "d"

so we can find the time to reach the bullet to the monkey

$t = \frac{d}{vcos\theta}$

Now similarly we can find the vertical displacement of the bullet in the same time

$\Delta y = vsin\theta t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$\Delta y = v sin\theta (\frac{d}{vcos\theta}) - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

so it is given as

$\Delta y = d tan\theta - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

here if the monkey is initially at height H above the ground at given angle then we can say

$H = dtan\theta$

so we can say that

$\Delta y = H - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

So if at the same time monkey will fall down then the height of monkey from ground after time "t" is given as

$\Delta y = H - \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

so here bullet will hit the monkey as both monkey and bullet are at same position.
