What is the definition of the particle?

Answers

Answer 1

A particle is a small piece of anything. If you mean a subatomic particle, that's a body that you can't see because it is so incredibly small, though it does have a miniscule mass and internal structure. These particles are even smaller than atoms. You can also say a crumb or speck of something is a particle.

Answer 2
A particle is a small portion of matter

A person throws a ball up into the air, and the ball falls back toward Earth. At which point would the kinetic energy be the lowest?(1 point)
A)when the ball is at its highest point

B) at a point when the ball is still rising

C)when the ball leaves the person’s hand

D) at a point before the ball hits the ground

Answers

it would be d bc when it’s at its lowest point it means not that much energy and that would be its lowest point which is D

When a person throws a ball up into the air, and the ball falls back toward Earth, the kinetic energy will be the lowest when the ball is at its highest point (option A).

Kinetic energy is given by:

[tex] K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} [/tex]

Where:

m: is the mass

v: is the velocity  

So, the kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity and the mass of the object.

When the person throws the ball up into the air, the ball will move upward to a maximum height and then will move down until it hits the ground.

In the upward motion, the ball's velocity will decrease until it reaches the maximum height, where it will be zero.  In the downward motion, the magnitude of the ball's velocity will increase because of the acceleration due to gravity until it reaches the ground.  

From the statements:

A) When the ball is at its highest point, the velocity will be zero, so the kinetic energy will be zero.  

B) When the ball rises, the velocity decreases, so the kinetic energy will also decrease.    

C) When the ball leaves the person's hand, it has an initial velocity that is the highest, so the kinetic energy has at this point, the maximum value.  

D) Before the ball hits the ground, the ball's velocity has the same value (in magnitude) as the initial value (when the ball leaves the person's hand), so the kinetic energy will be the highest at this point (like statement C).  

Therefore, the kinetic energy will be the lowest when the ball is at its highest point (option A).

On the Periodic Table of Elements, columns are called groups ,all of these elements have same number of valence electrons and the rows are called periods and have same number of valence shells.

Periodic table is a tabular arrangement of elements in the form of a table. In the periodic table, elements are arranged according to the modern periodic law which states that the properties of elements are a periodic function of their atomic numbers.

It is called as periodic because properties repeat after regular intervals of atomic numbers . It is a tabular arrangement consisting of seven horizontal rows called periods and eighteen vertical columns called groups.

Elements present in the same group have same number of valence electrons and hence have similar properties while elements present in the same period show gradual variation in properties due to addition of one electron for each successive element in a period.

Thus, columns are called groups ,all of these elements have same number of valence electrons and the rows are called periods and have same number of valence shells.

What is the main difference between a chemical and a physical change? Use examples to support your answer.

Answers

Answer:

Physical changes are usually about physical states of matter. Chemical changes happen on a molecular level when you have two or more molecules that interact. Chemical changes happen when atomic bonds are broken or created during chemical reactions.

Explanation:

Example of an chemical reaction: explosion

Example of an physical reaction: Ice melting

Plz put me in the brain list  

Examples of physical changes are freezing, melting(melting of ice cubes).

Examples of chemical changes are combustion, rusting of iron.

A physical change is a change that alters the physical properties of matter particularly the form and state.  In many cases, the change is easily reversible. Examples are freezing, melting(melting of ice cubes). A chemical change is a change in which a new kind of matter is formed. It is always accompanied by energy changes which can either be evolution or absorption of heat or light or both.  The process is not reversible. Examples are combustion, rusting of iron, precipitation, e.t.c. An example of chemical change which we see in our daily life is the conversion of milk to curd.

Answers

Answer: A

Explanation:

A Gold (Au) atom has 79 protons and 79 electrons. A typical gold atom has 118 neutrons, though there are 18 other radioisotopes discovered so far. 79 is its charge (atomic number), which is both its proton number and electron number

D. Protons, if you change the number of protons you change the element. You cannot change nuclei. You can have the same element with different numbers of neutrons (isotopes) and different numbers of electrons (ions). So protons will allow you to identify the element.

He isolates the white particles and finds that they have properties that are very different from any of the three starting materials. Which statement BEST explains Steve's observation?

Group of answer choices


A physical change occurred because no color change was observed.


A chemical change occurred because a new substance formed.


A physical change occurred because stirring did not change the solution.


A chemical change occurred because a solid substance formed.

Answers

A physical change occurred because stirring did not change the solution is the right answer
It’s a chemical change that occurred because a new substance formed.

Even though not much seemed to change, the question mentioned that Steve is unable to reverse the substance, which means there was a chemical reaction. If he was able to reverse it by heating or stirring, this would be a physical change because those can be reverted back to its original property.

As he was not able to do so, this was a chemical change. A new substance was formed. I think there was also a precipitate involved because of what was produced at the bottom, which is also a chemical change.

This assignment must be at least 200 words. Loyalists, Fence-sitters, and PatriotsPatriots tear down statue of King George III. After patriots tore down the statue of King George III in New York City on July 9, 1776, they melted parts of it down and made bullets to use against the British. It is impossible to know the exact number of American colonists who favored or opposed independence. For years it was widely believed that one third favored the Revolution, one third opposed it, and one third were undecided. This stems from an estimate made by John Adams in his personal writings in 1815.Historians have since concluded that Adams was referring to American attitudes toward the French Revolution, not ours. The current thought is that about 20 percent of the colonists were LOYALISTS those whose remained loyal to England and King George. Another small group in terms of percentage were the dedicated PATRIOTS, for whom there was no alternative but independence.Thomas PaineIn "Common Sense," Thomas Paine argued for independence from Britain and the creation of a democratic republic. Its publication in January 1776 immediately added fuel to the patriots' cause.Even with military victory, it would have been impossible for the Crown to regain the allegiance of the people. Revolution would merely flare up at a later date.The British understood the need to attract American popular support for the parent country, as well. Some colonists who were not persuaded by the political struggle joined the British for personal gain or military glory. Some joined out of sheer loyalty to the Crown they still believed themselves loyal British citizens. There were also many American farmers willing to sell their goods to the British for profit.In the long run, however, the patriots were much more successful attracting support. American patriots won the war of propaganda. Committees of Correspondence persuaded many fence-sitters to join the patriot cause. Writings such as Thomas Paine's "Common Sense" stirred newfound American nationalism.Excerpt of "Common Sense"IN the following pages I offer nothing more than simple facts, plain arguments, and common sense: and have no other preliminaries to settle with the reader, than that he will divest himself of prejudice and prepossession, and suffer his reason and his feelings to determine for themselves that he will put on, or rather that he will not put off, the true character of a man, and generously enlarge his views beyond the present day ...The Sun never shined on a cause of greater worth. 'Tis not the affair of a City, a County, a Province, or a Kingdom; but of a Continent of at least one-eighth part of the habitable Globe. 'Tis not the concern of a day, a year, or an age; posterity are virtually involved in the contest, and will be more or less affected even to the end of time, by the proceedings now. Now is the seed-time of Continental union, faith and honour. The least fracture now will be like a name engraved with the point of a pin on the tender rind of a young oak; the wound would enlarge with the tree, and posterity read in it full grown characters. Thomas Paine, "Common Sense" (1776)William FranklinThe American Revolution not only separated neighbors and friends, it devastated many families, including the Franklins. William Franklin, pictured here, a Loyalist, rarely, if ever, spoke to his Patriot father Ben after the war.Patriots subjected Loyalists to public humiliation and violence. Many Loyalists found their property vandalized, looted, and burned. The patriots controlled public discourse. Woe to the citizen who publicly proclaimed sympathy to Britain.Families were sometimes divided over the revolution. Benjamin Franklin's son, William, a Loyalist governor of New Jersey, supported the British effort during the war.What Happened to the Loyalists?In the end, many Loyalists simply left America. About 80,000 of them fled to Canada or Britain during or just after the war. Because Loyalists were often wealthy, educated, older, and Anglican, the American social fabric was altered by their departure. American history brands them as traitors. But most were just trying to maintain the lifestyles to which they had become accustomed.
