(a) From an atomic point of view, why do you have to heat a solid to melt it? (b) If you have a solid and a liquid at room temperature, what conclusion can you draw about the relative strengths of their inter-atomic forces?

If the chemical properties of a substance remain unchanged and appearance or shape of a substance changes it is called a ?

Aball with a mass of 275 g is dropped from rest, hits the floor and rebounds upward. if the ball hits the floor with a speed of 2.40 m/s and rebounds with a speed of 1.70 m/s, determine the following. (a) magnitude of the change in the ball's momentum (let up be in the positive direction.)

You are the coordinator for a program that is going to take place at night in a rectangular amphitheater in the mountains. you will have no access to any electricity, but you must be able to illuminate the entire grounds. you know the intensity of the light from a lantern varies inversely as the square of the distance from the lantern. suppose the intensity is 90 when the distance is 5 m. a. write an equation to model the situation. b. solve for the constant of variation. c. write the equation to model the situation using the constant () of variation. d. you have been given lanterns with 40 light intensity. use your equation to solve for the distance from the lantern. e. you need to illuminate 225 km. how many meters do you need to light? f. how many lanterns will you need?
