The length of the room is 96 ft.

Let L be the length of the room and W be the width of the room.

Since the length is twice its width, L = 2W.

Its area A = LW

= 2W × W

= 2W²

If each side were increased by 1 foot, then its new area is A' = (L + 1)(W + 1)

= (2W + 1)(W + 1)

= 2W² + 3W + 1

Since the room would contain 145 ft more if each side were increased by 1 foot, then its new area is A' = A + 145 = 2W² + 3W + 1

2W² + 145 = 2W² + 3W + 1

145 = 3W + 1

3W = 145 - 1

3W = 144

W = 144/3

W = 48 ft.

Since its length L = 2W, substituting W = 48 into the equation, we have

L = 2(48)

L = 96 ft

So, the length of the room is 96 ft.

The Kelvin scale has no negatives on it.

Zero Kelvin is 'Absolute Zero', and nothing can get colder than that.

Describe the energy change in the particles of a substance during melting. A) The kinetic energy of the particles remains unchan
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

As ice melts into water, kinetic energy is being added to the particles. This causes them to be 'excited' and they break the bonds that hold them together as a solid, resulting in a change of state: solid -> liquid.

Explanation:

As we may know, the change in state of an object is due to the change in the average kinetic energy of the particles.

This average kinetic energy is proportional to the temperature of the particles.

This is because heat is a form of energy; by adding energy to ice - heat, you "excite" the water molecules, breaking the interactions in the lattice structure and forming weaker, looser hydrogen-bonding interactions.

This causes the ice to melt. This is demonstrated in the image below.

More generally, when you remove energy - the object cools down, the particles move a lot slower. So slow, that they individually attract other molecules more than before, and this results in a physical change that also changes the state.

An object of mass 30 kg is in free fall in a vacuum where there is no air resistance. Determine the acceleration of the object.
velikii [3]

Answer:

In free fall, mass is not relevant and there's no air resistance, so the acceleration the object is experimenting will be equal to the gravity exerted. If the object is falling on our planet, the value of gravity is approximately 9.81ms2 .
