What causes the random, zig-zag movement (Brownian motion) of smoke particles suspended in air?​

Physics
1 answer:
lidiya [134]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It is caused by air molecules colliding with smoke particles

Explanation:

To start with, Brownian motion is the erratic or irregular movement of very small particles in a medium due to continuous bombardment by molecules that surround the medium.

Thus, smoke moves in a Zig-Zag manner (Brownian motion) due to continious air bombardment. If it were pollen grain suspended in water, the erratic movement (Brownian motion) of the grains is caused by bombardment from water molecules.

Answer:

change the

  • time
  • distance
  • force.

P = W/time

W = F*d

You have control over how fast you go up the stairs.

You also have control over how far up the stairs you go.

Therefore the answer is

  • time
  • distance

If you don't like distance as an answer, you can carry something up the stairs -- anything that increases F will do.

3. What is the main difference between a physical change and a chemical
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

B and D could both be right as they are quit similar.

Consider two rods of the same length and diameter,

Increasing the diameter of one would change the expansion qualities of that rod even though there would be no chemical changes,

However, leaving the physical appearance of both rods the same while applying a reactive substance (acid or something) to one of the rods would not necessarily change the physical appearance of that rod but could make a considerable change in the  physical properties of that rod.
