The vapor pressure of a liquid is a measure of how much vapor of a liquid sits in the air above the liquid in a closed container

. So, for example, a steam room has a very high vapor pressure of water. Do you think a substance that has weaker forces between molecules would in general have a greater or lesser vapor pressure than a substance with stronger forces between the molecules? For example, compare isopropyl alcohol and water.

Answer: When the isopropyl alcohol was boiled, it quickly boiled away. The water ALSO boiled away, but the alcohol was quicker. Isopropyl alcohol had a high vapor pressure because it boiled away very fast, and isopropyl alcohol had strong forces between its molecules (seen with the surface tension experiment.) The water boiled away slower, and had weaker forces between its molecules. So, the stronger the forces, the higher the vapor pressure

When I throw a ball in the air at what point will it have the least kinetic energy
pickupchik [31]
When you throw the ball in the air it is considered kinetic energy. Once the ball reaches its max height, it stops moving and all kinetic energy turns into potential energy. So when the ball is at its highest point.

Using examples, explain why the first and second Newton laws of motion are significant for living organisms.
Triss [41]

Answer:

1) Newton's first law of motion states an object will remain at rest or in uniform will be in uniform motion in a straight line unless a force acts on it

2) Newton's second law states the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the applied force acting on an object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object

Explanation:

1) With Newton's first law, we are able arrange things within a space and schedule meetings in time knowing that they will remain in place unless an external force changes their positions

2) An example of Newton's second law of motion is that small objects such as a ball are easily accelerated and can be given appreciable acceleration for flight by single, one time contact (such as kicking the ball) while larger objects such as a rock require sustained force application to change their location.
