Why the water flows faster through the cylinders containing large particles than through the cylinders containing smaller particles?
because the surface area of the larger particles propels them faster which has a recipical effect on the water around the particles
What is needed for a sound to travel?
Particles, e.g gas particles in air, because sound travels through the vibration of particles. Sound waves cannot travel in a vacuum, as there are no particles.
Why does sound travel slowly through gas?
Sound travels slowly through gas because the particles in a gas are further away then the particles in a solid or a liquid. This makes it take longer for the sound waves to travel through the particles in gases because it takes longer for them to collide with each other; this makes it take longer for the particles to pass on the sound vibration.
Light can travel through a vacuum as is evidenced when you see the sun or the moon. Can sound travel through a vacuum also?
No, sounds cannot travel through a vacuum. This is because sound requires a medium to travel through because it requires the vibration of particles to travel and there need to be particles to vibrate for it to travel through.
What state of matter does radiation happen you n?
Radiation can travel through; solids, liquids, gases and it can also pass through a vacuem (where particles are not present). This is because radiation uses waves to emit not particles.
What type of mixture contains insoluble particles mixed evenly through a liquid?
suspension
The ability of gases to spread rapidly through other gases is explained by what?
Constant random motion of particles
Why does cytoplasm need to enclosed by a semi-permeable membrane?
The cytoplasm is the body of a cell. It is surrounded by the Cell membrane. Permeable means its ability to allow particles or nutrients to pass through. It is called semi-permeable [membrane] because it only allows some particles or nutrients to pass through, not all.
How a wooden table can show that sound waves can travel through solids?
Put your ear on a table and hit the table the soundwave is caused by the vibration of particles in the table which transfer the sound wave to your ear where it is picked up as a vibration. sound travels through everything which contains particles. It will not travel through space as it is a vacuum and contains no particles therefore cannot pass the vibrations on.
Why the water flows faster through the cylinders containing large particles than through the cylinders containing smaller particles?
because the surface area of the larger particles propels them faster which has a recipical effect on the water around the particles
Why do the particles of a solution not separate?
Because the Particles are too small to fit through the filter paper. Hope this helps!
