Answer #1

This question emphasizes on the concept of inertia.

If the body/particle is at rest in some frame of reference and the frame is intertial then net force on the particle is zero.

In otherwords there is no interaction or the sum total of interaction is zero. Now in this case when you see the change in position then we must say that some interaction is there.

Now we will take the case when the particle / body is already in motion, in some inertial frame of reference, then due to inertia of motion it will continue moving in the direction of initial velocity and will change its position continuously without any interaction. And clearly either no interaction has taken place whatsoever or the sum total of interaction is zero.

from the above discussion, it can be said that the change in position of object is NOT the indicator of interaction.

This assignment involves using a binary search tree (BST) to keep track of all words in a text document. It produces a cross-reference, or a concordance. This is very much like assignment 4, except that you must use a different data structure. You may use some of the code you wrote for that assignment, such as input parsing, for this one. Remember that in a binary search tree, the value to the left of the root is less than the...

If the ethanol water system is considered an ideal system, an equilibrium curve can be plotted using only the ‘combined Raoult’s Law’, as shown. (This curve is not completely accurate as activity coefficients are not considered.) Along the x axis is the liquid mole fraction of ethanol, the light key, with the vapor mole fraction of ethanol along the y axis. For this problem, assume that you can use this curve to estimate the number of necessary distillation stages for...
