Explanation:

The unit of volume derived from SI units(1) is the cubic meter, m3.

Chemists in a laboratory usually deal with much smaller volumes than cubic meters and the metric but non-SI units of liter or litre (L) and milliliter or millilitre (mL or ml) are in common use.

In 1964 the litre was redefined as being equal to exactly 1 cubic decimetre:

1 L = 1 dm3

So 1 milliltre = 1 cubic centimetre

1 mL = 1 cm3 (= 1cc)

Other metric units of measuring volume are given in the table below:

large volume → → → → → → → → → → small volume

symbol TL GL ML kL hL daL dL cL mL µL nL pL fL aL

volume (L) 1012 L 109 L 106 L 103 L 102 L 101 L 10-1 L 10-2 L 10-3 L 10-6 L 10-9 L 10-12 L

What happens to a wave if its frequency decreases?

iragen [17]

Answer:hen frequency increases more wave crests pass a fixed point each second. That means the wavelength shortens. So, as frequency increases, wavelength decreases. The opposite is also true—as frequency decreases, wavelength increases.

What name is given to a process where a substance melts under pressure?

Digiron [165]

Answer:

Melting

Explanation:

The process of a solid becoming a liquid is called melting. (an older term that you may see sometimes is fusion). The opposite process, a liquid becoming a solid, is called solidification. For any pure substance, the temperature at which melting occurs—known as the melting point—is a characteristic of that substance.

A box is initially sliding across a frictionless floor toward a spring which is attached to a wall. the box hits the end of the

Serjik [45]

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
where k is the spring's constant and x is the displacement with respect to the relaxed position of the spring.

The work done by the spring is the negative of the potential energy difference between the final and initial condition of the spring:
$W=-\Delta U = \frac{1}{2}kx_i^2 - \frac{1}{2}kx_f^2$

In our problem, initially the spring is uncompressed, so $x_i=0$ . Therefore, the work done by the spring when it is compressed until $x_f$ is
$W=- \frac{1}{2}kx_f^2$
And this value is actually negative, because the box is responsible for the spring's compression, so the work is done by the box.
