Have a definite shape.        Don't have a definite shape.

Have a definite mass.         Have a definite mass.

Have a definite volume.       Have a definite volume.

GASES

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]
inna [77]
This is a defective, misleading question, and should never be asked in a Physics class.

There is no such thing as the force due to the impact.

If you know how long it takes the clam to stop once it begins to hit the dirt,
then you can calculate the impulse transferred to it, and tease a force out
of that.  But the question doesn't give us the time. 

It depends on the material of the surface.  Was the clam dropped onto dirt ? 
Into a dumpster ?  Onto grass ?  Concrete ?  Styrofoam ?  Mud ?  The answer
is different in each case, and we still need to know the short length of time
AFTER it first encountered whatever surface brought it to rest.

I would kick this question back to the Physics teacher.  It's meaningless,
and the longer you try to work on it, the more nonsense you'll plant into
your head that'll need to be dug out later.

A long electric cable is suspended above the earth and carries a current of 345 A parallel to the surface of the earth. The eart
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

0.906 N

Explanation:

Formula for magnetic force acting on current carrying cable:

F = IBLsin(\theta)

Where I = 345A is the current in the wire, B = 5.6*10^{-5} T is the magnetic magnitude generated by Earth. L = 46.9 m is the cable length. \theta = 88.2^o is the angle between vector B and cable direction.

F = 345*5.6*10^{-5}*46.9*sin(88.2^o)

F = 0.906 N

Define second class lever​
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Please find detailed explanation of second class levers below

Explanation:

Levers are one of the classes of machine that possesses three levels namely: first class, second class and third claas. A second class lever is the level of levers in which the load (L) is in between the pivot (F) and the effort (E).

Examples of second class levers include; wheelbarrow, a bottle opener etc. In the bottle opener for example, the bottle lid (load) is in between the pivot of the opener and the hand opening it (effort).

Light from a laser of wavelength λ1 shines normally on a pair of narrow slits separated by distance D. This results in a differe
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The angular position of first intensity maxima is given by the expression

= λ / d where λ is wave length of light and d is slit separation

putting the values given in the problem. ,

.02 = λ₁ / D

Now wavelength has been increased to 2λ₁

angular separation of first maxima

=  2λ₁ /D

= 2 x .02

= .04 radians.
