Boiling water is a common method used to sterilize water that may be contaminated. subjecting microbes to such high temperatures is an example of a(n) microbicidal technique.

A substance that eliminates microorganisms (such as bacteria) is known as microbicide and the techniques that involve destruction of microbes are known as microbicidal techniques.

The pathogen biofilm was effectively destroyed by the combined microbicidal effects of hot water (50, 60, or 70 °C) and 2% citric acid. It was discovered that the combination of hot water and citric acid caused sub-lethally harmed cells.

A fairly easy way to disinfect water is to boil it. The majority of dangerous organisms, notably viruses and bacteria that cause waterborne infections, are killed when water is heated to a high temperature of 100°C. The water must boil for at least 20 minutes in order to be most effective.

Hence, water that may be polluted is frequently sterilized by boiling. Using such high temperatures to kill germs is an example of a microbicidal method.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Sarah is right

Explanation:

This is an exercise that differentiates between scalars and vectors.

A scalar is a number, instead a vector is a number that represents the module in addition to direction and sense.

In this case, the distance (scalar) traveled is a number, which is why it is worth 1500m, but the displacement is a vector and since the point where it leaves is the same point where the vector's modulus arrives is zero, so the DISPLACEMENT VECTOR is zero

consequently Sarah is right

In which situation is work not being done?
almond37 [142]

AS

work done =W = F.d = F d cosФ     (Ф is angle between force F and displacement d) If a body/object is moving on a smooth surface (friction-less surface ) .There is no force acting on that body.  F=0 so W=FdcosФ= (0)dcosФ ⇒ W=0

Now if a body is facing some amount of force but under the action of force there is no displacement covered. d=0 so W =FdcosФ= F(0)cosФ ⇒W=0

example:  A person is applying a force on rigid wall but wall remains at rest there is no displacement occurs in wall.

The third term upon which work done  dependent is angle between force and displacement i.e Ф. If Ф=90° then W= FdcosФ= Fdcos90⇒ W=0   ( as cos 90°=0)

Montano1993 [528]

Answer: Object B

Explanation: Acceleration is directly proportional to force and inversely proportional to mass. It implies that more massive objects accelerates at a slower rate.
