What is a characteristic of a gas?

Physics
2 answers:
DerKrebs [107]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Gases have three characteristic properties: 1. they are easy to compress, 2. they expand to fill their containers, and 3.they occupy far more space than the liquids or solids from which they form. Compressibility. An internal combustion engine provides a good example of the ease with which gases can be compressed.

Gases consist of particles in constant, random motion. They continue in a straight line until they collide with something—usually each other or the walls of their container.

Hope this helps!

How do i find the number of leptons in an atom??
Serjik [45]

Answer:

In particle physics, a lepton is an elementary particle of half-integer spin (spin 1⁄2) that does not undergo strong interactions.[1] Two main classes of leptons exist: charged leptons (also known as the electron-like leptons or muons), and neutral leptons (better known as neutrinos). Charged leptons can combine with other particles to form various composite particles such as atoms and positronium, while neutrinos rarely interact with anything, and are consequently rarely observed. The best known of all leptons is the electron.

A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir
mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b.  11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm

Whats the difference between speed and velocity of an object
ss7ja [257]
The difference between speed and velocity is that the speed is a scalar quantity which means that you can say that this object has a speed of x m/s but you don't have to define its direction
while the velocity is a vector quantity which means that you have to express the velocity by which it moves in x,y and z directions and its norm is the speed

Hey Tori's are the rim of a canyon yells hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello four seconds later if the speed of
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

The wall is 680 meter away from the person.

Explanation:

Given data

Speed of sound = 340 \frac{m}{s}

Given that Persons said hello toward the opposite side she has an echo hello 4 seconds later means it takes 2 seconds for the sound to reach the wall & again 2 seconds to reach the persons ear.

Therefore the distance between the person & wall is

D = speed × Time

D = 340 × 2

D = 680 meter

Therefore the wall is 680 meter away from the person.
