4x The statement can be made that atoms and molecules are always in motion. Formulate a reason that solids can exist. A The internal energy of the atoms is not enough to allow the atoms to disassociate from its neighbors. B External energy output is strong enough to allow the atoms to withdraw from its nearest neighbors. C Intermolecular forces are inadequate to allow the atoms to break away from its nearest neighbors. D Activation energy is equivalent to allow the atoms to migrate away from its nearest neighbors.
What does a negative velocity indicate? The object is moving backwards The object is speeding up The object is at rest The object is slowing down
What is the speed of sound in air that students need to remember? 550 meters per second 330 meters per second 250 meters per second 1000 meters per second
How does the speed of sound waves change in different mediums? It only changes in water It only changes in air It remains constant It varies depending on the medium
What is the relationship between velocity and acceleration? Acceleration is the change in velocity over time. Velocity is the change in acceleration over time. Velocity and acceleration are equal and opposite. Velocity and acceleration have nothing to do with each other.
19. The process by which atomic nuclei spontaneously decay is called relative dating radioactivity erosion deposition 20. The time it takes for 50 percent of the nuclei in a radioactive sample to decay to its stable isotope is called the daughter product geologic time the half-life the half-time 21. The scientist who developed the theory of evolution was Harry Hess James Hutton Charles Darwin William Smith
