"An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force." This describes which of Newton's laws of motion?

73% Answer Correctly

fourth

second

third

first

2

An element in the physical state of __________ maintains neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.

75% Answer Correctly

gas

solid

plasma

liquid


Solution

The gaseous state occurs at a higher temperature range than the solid and liquid states of the same substance. In this state, molecules flow very freely around each other and will spread out as far as they're able. Gases maintain neither a constant volume nor a constant shape.


3
