Explanation:

In liquids the particles have more energy. This allows the particles in liquids to roll past each other, but they are still tightly packed. Gases can be compressed because the particles can be forced closer together. The particles in a liquid are already as close as they can be.

To balance a chemical equation we use______. -coefficients -subscripts

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products.

Which person is weightless?

ahrayia [7]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on an object helps in determining the weight of an object. But a place where there will be no gravity or have zero gravitational pull then it means the person will be weightless.

For example, force of gravity on moon is zero which means any object or person on moon will be weightless.

On the other hand, when a child is in the air as she plays on a trampoline then it means gravitational pull form the earth is acting on it. So, it will definitely has some weight.

Similarly, a scuba diver exploring a deep-sea wreck is under the ground where there will be force of gravity. Hence, it will also have some weight.

Thus, we can conclude that an astronaut on the Moon is the person who is weightless.

Which type of multiplexing is defined by wavelength instead of frequency? a. wdm b. cwdm c. dwdm d. fdm?

Rina8888 [55]

Multiplexing is the process of combining numerous signal of data or sound on to a single carrier like an optical fiber by using different wavelengths. The type of multiplexing that is defined by wavelength instead of frequency is CWDM which is also known as Coarse Wavelength Division Multiplexing.
