What else can I help you with?
What happens when particles in a solid are packed so close together?
particles in a solid are packed so close together they can only
Can you compress a gas because its particles are close together?
No. You can compress a gas because the particles are NOT close together. If they are close together (as in a solid) it is extremely difficult to compress any further.
When steam turns to water the particles get?
When steam turns to water, the particles lose energy and slow down, coming closer together. This causes the steam to condense into liquid water.
What is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles are close together called?
Compression is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are crowded together. Rarefaction is the part where the particles are spread apart.
What is close together in a longitudinal wave?
In a longitudinal wave, the particles of the medium oscillate back and forth in the same direction as the wave propagation. When the particles are close together, the wave is in compression, where the particles are closest together.
What happens to particles in steam when cooled?
When steam is cooled, its particles lose energy and slow down. As a result, the steam condenses back into water vapor or liquid water. The particles move closer together due to the decrease in thermal energy.
What is the region of a compressional wave where particles are close together called?
The region of a compressional wave where particles are close together is called the compression zone. In this zone, particles are crowded closely together, creating areas of high pressure.
What is it called when sound particles are close together?
When sound particles are close together, it is called compression. This occurs during the peaks of a sound wave, where air molecules are densely packed together.
Does steam or water have the greatest distance between particles?
Steam has a greater distance between particles compared to water because steam is in a gaseous state where the particles have more space between them and move more freely. Water, on the other hand, is a liquid with particles that are more closely packed together.
What is the movement particles of solid?
In solids, particles tend to stay still, and are close together
How are particles of a liquid different from the particles of a solid?
The particles of a solid are close together and the particles of a liquid are slightly farther apart.
What depends upon how close the individual particles are together?
The state of matter depends on the closeness of the particles. Gases have particles that are very far apart and solids are close together. This is determined by the strength of attraction of these particles to one another.
