Answer and Explanation:

The texture of the slabs affects the type of bonding the water molecules has with each other.

The dry glass slab allows the water to form cohesive bonds with each other, making the water stick to itself and not the slab, which makes it flow uniformly, or regularly.

The Waxed glass slab has a different texture that forms an adhesive-type bonding with water, making the water stick to the slab at certain parts/forming the spherical droplets.

Hi! I really need help on these questions, it would be great if you can answer them!

1: Equilibrium

[] When two forces are equal in opposite directions, they are in a state of equilibrium

2: Friction

[] It can be hard to sometimes slide a paper across a table, roll a car across the ground, etc etc. This is because of a force called friction which resists motion

3: Displacement

[] Work is only "done" when the object or surroundings are having movement, or in motion, and this creates displacement

4: Force

[] A force is a push/pull in any direction, this is a simple definition so not much can be added.

5: Inertia

[] Inertia is a force that likes to remain unchanged, or without movement

6: Effort

[] "Meg is holding up weight without movement. She hasn't done any work since it did not move, but is tired. Why?" Effort! She still put in effort even though no "work" happened

7: Work

[] Force times displacement is the equation for work

8: Motion

[] Look back to #3, when there is motion we can tell work is done

Have a nice day!

I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)
