What type of matter has particles that take the shape of the entire container they are in?

What is air resistance?

• An attractive force that acts between all matter, proportional to mass. Larger objects exert a larger influence.

• A force that is caused by particles in air colliding with a moving object. The force acts in the opposite direction to the moving object.

• A force that does not allow a parachute to slow a parachutist down when opened.

• A force that keeps the planets orbiting the Sun, the Moon orbiting the Earth, and keeps us from floating into space.

• An attractive force that acts between all matter, proportional to mass. Larger objects exert a greater influence.

• A force that is caused by particles in air colliding with a moving object. The force acts in the opposite direction to the moving object.

• A force that keeps the planets orbiting the Sun, the Moon orbiting the Earth, and keeps us from floating into space.

• A force that causes an object's weight. It is responsible for causing an object with a larger mass to have a greater weight.

How does a parachute use the particles in air to slow a skydiver down?

• When the skydiver jumps out of an airplane, he or she experiences two forces, acting in opposite directions.

• The skydiver's weight acts downwards, while the air resistance acts upwards.

• The skydiver's weight acts upwards, while the air resistance acts downwards.

• The particles of gas in the air cause air resistance, an object colliding with these particles produces a force in the direction opposite its movement.

Which statements below explain how particles are arranged in a solid? Choose all that apply.

• The forces between solid particles are weaker that those in a liquid, but still strong.

• The particles are packed very closely together in a regular pattern.

• The particles vibrate around fixed points, but are unable to move around freely.

• The attraction between the particles is very strong, meaning solids cannot flow, they hold their shape, and have a constant volume.

Which statements below explain how particles are arranged in a liquid? Choose all that apply.

• The particles are close together but then can move more freely, so liquids don't have a fixed shape.

• Liquids can flow, because their particles can slide over one another.

• The forces between liquid particles are weaker that those in a solid, but still strong.

• The particles are much farther apart, with empty space between them.
