Which are characteristics of a gas? (Select all that apply.)It cannot move.It fills the container it is in.It can be compressed.

It has a fixed volume.
Physics
1 answer:
Aleonysh [2.5K]2 years ago

Answer:  no definite shape (takes the shape of its container)

no definite volume.

particles move in random motion with little or no attraction to each other.

highly compressible.

Explanation:

Gases have three characteristic properties: (1) they are easy to compress, (2) they expand to fill their containers, and (3) they occupy far more space than the liquids or solids from which they form.

An electron is moving east in a uniform electric field of 1.47 {\rm N/C} directed to the west. At point A, the velocity of the e
zimovet [89]

Answer:

a) v = 6.25\times 10^{5} m/s

b) v = 1.73\times 10^{4} m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

Electric field = 1.47 N/C

velocity of electron is 4.55\times 10^5 m/s

distance of point b from point A is 0.55 m

we know that acceleration of particle is given as

a) for electron

a =\frac{q E}{m}

a = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times 1.47}{9.1\times 10^{-31}}

a = 2.58\times 10^{11} m/s^2

from equation of motion we have

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

      = 20.7025 \times 10^{10} + 2\times 2.58\times 10^{11} \times 0.355

v = 6.25\times 10^{5} m/s

b) for proton

a = \frac{1.6\times 10^{-19} \times -1.47}{1.6\times 10^{-27}}

a = -1.41\times 10^{8} m/s^2

from equation of motion we have

v^2 = u^2 + 2aS

       = 3.8025 \times 10^{8} - 2\times 1.41\times 10^{8} \times 0.355

v = 1.73\times 10^{4} m/s

Which of the following wavelengths will produce standing waves on a string that is 3.5 m long?
denpristay [2]

In a string of length L, the wavelength of the n-th harmonic of the standing wave produced in the string is given by:

\lambda=\frac{2}{n} L


The length of the string in this problem is L=3.5 m, therefore the wavelength of the 1st harmonic of the standing wave is:

\lambda=\frac{2}{1} \cdot 3.5 m=7.0 m


The wavelength of the 2nd harmonic is:

\lambda=\frac{2}{2} \cdot 3.5 m=3.5 m


The wavelength of the 4th harmonic is:

\lambda=\frac{2}{4} \cdot 3.5 m=1.75 m


It is not possible to find any integer n such that \lambda=5 m, therefore the correct options are A, B and D.

A student wearing a frictionless roller skates on a horizontal is pushed by a friend with a constant force of 55N. How far must
umka21 [38]

Answer:

6.58m

Explanation:

The kinetic energy = Workdone on the roller

Workdone = Force * distance

Given

KE = Workdone = 362J

Force = 55N

Required

Distance

Substitute into the formula;

Workdone = Force * distance

362 = 55d

d = 362/55

d = 6.58m

Hence the student must push at a distance of 6.58m

A hazard sign has 3 identical
melomori [17]

Answer and Explanation: To know how much tape he will need, we have to calculate the perimeter of each parallelogram-shaped stripe.

Perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a figure.

For a parallelogram:

P = 2*length + 2*width

So, we need to determine width and length of the stripe.

Width is 3 inches. Length is the hypotenuse of the right triangle, whose sides are 6 and 18 inches. Then, length is

h=\sqrt{18^{2}+6^{2}}

h=\sqrt{360}

h = 19 in

Perimeter of the first stripe is

P = (2*19) + (2*3)

P = 44 inches

The hazard sign has 3 stripes. So total perimeter is

P_{t}= 44 + 44 + 44

P_{t}= 132 inches

To outline the parallelogram-shaped stripes, Charles need a total of 132 inches of tape. Since one roll has 144 inches, he will have enough tape to finish the job.
