Answer:

<em>Liquid:</em> A state of matter that consists of loose, free moving particles which form the shape set by the boundaries of the container in which the liquid is in. This happens because the motion of the individual particles within a liquid is much less restricted than in a solid. One may notice that some liquids flow readily whereas some liquids flow slowly. A liquid's relative resistance to flow is viscosity.

<em>Solid</em>: A state of matter with tightly packed particles which do not change the shape or volume of the container that it is in. However, this does not mean that the volume of a solid is a constant. Solids can expand and contract when temperatures change. This is why when you look up the density of a solid, it will indicate the temperature at which the value for density is listed. Solids have strong intermolecular forces that keep particles in close proximity to one another. Another interesting thing to think about is that all true solids have crystalline structures. This means that their particles are arranged in a three-dimensional, orderly pattern. Solids will undergo phase changes when they come across energy changes.

<em>Gas: </em>A state of matter where particles are spread out with no definite shape or volume. The particles of a gas will take the shape and fill the volume of the container that it is placed in. In a gas, there are no intermolecular forces holding the particles of a gas together since each particle travels at its own speed in its own direction. The particles of a gas are often separated by great distances.

Why do heavier objects fall at the same speed as lighter ones?

GaryK [48]

Speed of any freely falling object is always same. Provided, both are left to fall from the same height. If you perform this experiment in a perfect vacuum or near vacuum laboratory, both of them will reach ground with same velocity this is because there is no resistance to their motion. This is always true no matter where you go and perform this experiment.
It can be easily proved from conservation of mechanical energy. Why conserving energy? because there are no forces acting on the freely falling objects other than conservative force(mg).

What kind of tectonic plate boundary must have existed in the past where copper deposits are found, based on the way they are fo

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

older plates that are subducting almost perpendicularly, and when the location is far away from the edge of other tectonic plates, are the most likely areas for copper deposits to form

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a particle of mass 1.45 g be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward-

sergey [27]

$q = -21 * 10^{-6} C$

<h3>What is Free-fall acceleration?</h3>

The acceleration is constant and equal to the gravitational acceleration g which is 9.8 m/s at sea level on the Earth.

As we know that charge and its sign that remains in equilibrium is under gravity must be such that it will balance the gravitational force by electric force,

mg =qE

$1.45 * 10^{-3}(9.80)=q(600)\\\\q = 21 *10^{6} C\\\\$

and its sign must be negative so that it will have upward electric force

so it is

$q = -21 * 10^{-6} C$

The charge of a particle of mass is $-21 * 10^{-6} C$
