QUESTION:

Explain melting and freezing using the kinetic theory of matter.

ANSWER:

As a liquid is cooled its molecules lose kinetic energy and their motion slows. When they’ve slowed to where intermolecular attractive forces exceed the collisional forces from random motion, then a phase transition from liquid to solid state takes place and the material freezes. These attractive forces can be any of several types:

  • Covalent.
  • Hydrogen (polar).
  • Ionic.
  • Van der Waals.

The temperature of solid which melts and turned into liquid when heat is applied is called melting.

The temperature of a liquid which becomes a solid at normal atmosphereic pressure is called freezing .

hope it is helpful to you ☺️☺️☺️

Three observers watch a train pull away from a station toward the right of the platform. Observer A is in one of the train’s car
juin [17]

Observer A is moving inside the train

so here observer A will not be able to see the change in position of train as he is standing in the same reference frame

So here as per observer A the train will remain at rest and its not moving at all

Observer B is standing on the platform so here it is a stationary reference frame which is outside the moving body

So here observer B will see the actual motion of train which is moving in forward direction away from the platform

Observer C is inside other train which is moving in opposite direction on parallel track. So as per observer C the train is coming nearer to him at faster speed then the actual speed because they are moving in opposite direction

So the distance between them will decrease at faster rate

Now as per Newton's II law

F = ma

Now if train apply the brakes the net force on it will be opposite to its motion

So we can say

- F = ma

a = \frac{-F}{m}

so here acceleration negative will show that train will get slower and its distance with respect to us is now increasing with less rate

It is not affected by the gravity  because the gravity will cause the weight of train and this weight is always counterbalanced by normal force on the train

So there is no effect on train motion

 <span>AnalStage. </span>According to Freud, a<span>dults fixated in this area could feel constantly out of control or could need to be in control all the time. Pleasure focus is on the anus, which occurs when a child learns to control bladder and bowel movements. Fixation in this area can be caused from struggles during potty training.</span>

An object attached to one end of a spring makes 20 vibrations in 10 seconds. Its angular frequency is: 0. 79 rad/s 1. 57 rad/s 2
morpeh [17]

Angular frequency in radian per second for 20 vibrations in 10 seconds is 12.6 rad/s

<h3>What is Angular frequency?</h3>

Angular frequency is the number of vibrations in radian per second.

The total number of vibrations n is 20 and the time taken for these vibrations is 10 s

The frequency of the vibrations will be

f = 20 / 10 = 2 Hz

Angular frequency is related to the frequency as

ω = 2πf

ω=2π × 2

ω = 12.6 rad/s

Thus, the angular frequency is 12.6 rad/s.

State the condition for maximum current to be drawn from the cell
larisa86 [58]
Use the equation I=V/R where I is current and V is the voltage plus R is the resistance so when voltage is the highest and resistance is lowest the current is the highest

How can you be both at rest and also moving at 100,000 km/h at the same time
4vir4ik [10]

You could be lying completley still on your bed, and all though it seems you are at rest, you are moving along with the earth around the sun and hence are motion. This is why 'being at rest' is more of a relative term. Hope this helps!
