Called a(n) convection current
Answer: (C)
The frequency increases as the wavelength decreases
Explanation:
The relation between the frequency and wavelength of a wave is
Frequency = 1 / Wavelength
The Frequency of electromagnetic wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength. So, as the frequency increases, the wavelength of the wave decreases and vise-versa.
The frequency of a wave is number of complete cycles passing a particular point per second. Its S.I unit is Hertz whereas the wavelength of a wave is the distance between two consecutive crest and trough in meters.
So, on increasing the frequency of a wave, there will be more number of the cycles of wave per second which will decrease the distance between the consecutive crest and trough i.e wavelength.
Answer: option D) energy was absorbed and entropy increased.
Explanation:
1) Given balanced equation:
2H₂O (l) + 571.6 kJ → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂(g).
2) Being the energy placed on the side of the reactants means that the energy is used (consumed or absorbed). This is an endothermic reaction.
So, the first part is that energy was absorbed.
3) As for the entropy, it is a measure of the disorder or radomness of the system.
Since, two molecules of liquid water were transformed into three molecules of gas, i.e. more molecules and more kinetic energy, therefore the new state has a greater degree of radomness, is more disordered, and you conclude that the entropy increased.
With that, you have shown that the right option is D) energy was absorbed and increased.
Answer:
Have you ever seen a "shooting star" race across the sky at night? Shooting stars are meteors zooming at high speed through Earth's atmosphere and burning up along the way from friction. And right now is one of the best times to see them in person. The Perseids, which are impressive meteor showers that happen each year from mid-July to late August, have their peak activity around August 11 to 14. They're caused by Earth traveling through debris from the Comet Swift-Tuttle. Luckily, most meteors are tiny and burn up before hitting the ground. But if a meteor doesn't disintegrate, what's its impact on Earth? In this activity you'll explore how a meteorite’s size is related to the size of the crater it makes on impact.
