Why cant a substance no longer be compressed when changes from gas to liquid?
A lquid has a more compact structure.
Is it the speed or the size of the vibration that changes the pitch of a sound?
Neither. Speed of sound waves doesn't change unless there is a change in the medium (substance through which the wave moves). the size of the vibration determines how loud the sound is. the length of the vibration is what determines the pitch.
What is the difference between high and low explosive?
one burns...the other changes from a solid form to a gaseous form instantaneously upon the application of an electrical charge or other form of initiation.
Why does chemistry involve the study of the changes in the world at a submicroscopic level?
Atoms and molecules are submicroscopic and it is their behavior that determines the macro behavior of chemicals in bulk.
Why are gas thermometers more sensitive than liquid thermometers?
bc gas is easily compressed so it would have a more versitile range of measurement at least in our atmoshperic conditions. liquid not so easily compressed so very little pressure via mass w/gravity or heat would cause it to quickly jump between changes.
Can fine sugar be compressed?
Like most solids, it can be compressed to whatever pressure you like but with only very small changes in volume.

What changes the speed at which rock is broken apart?
climates and weather determines the speed
Is explosive a physical change?
By explosion, you mean combustion I presume. Because combustion is a type of reaction, explosions are chemical changes.
When a file is moved to the recycle bin the size of the file changes?
Yes. This is because the files that are moved to the recycle bin are compressed.
Convegent boundarie what changes to the crust occur?
The crust is compressed into mountains (if it is continental crust) or subducted back into the mantle if it is oceanic crust.
The energy of shape or position?
This is called "potential" energy. For instance, a rock standing at the edge of a cliff has the potential to fall and cause physical changes. However, it has not yet fallen, so the energy is considered "potential". An unreleased, stretched elastic holds the same type of energy, as does an undetonated explosive and a tank of compressed air.
Who determines congressional salary?
Congress does. But according to the constitution, changes can't kick in until after the next election.
What determines the pitch or frequency of a string on a violin or guitar?
It changes because it depends if you do it soft or hard that is why it sounds different
Why are elevations vertically exaggerated on a cross sectional map?
The aren't. The scale is compressed and so the changes across the sectional map seem extreme.
Why would hiking up a tall mountain be a good way to observe how climate determines an area biome?
The climate changes dramatically as you move up a tall mountain. Climate determines the distribution of species on the mountain.
