The fine horizontal scratches etched onto a bullet after it has been fired are called Striations.

<h3>What is Striations?</h3>
  • Striations are the minute differences in the curve of the bullet's surface. The bullet and the gun barrel are the harder and softer materials, respectively, in firearms evidence.
  • The striations left on the fired bullet are used as a comparison by firearm examiners.
  • When a gun is discharged, the bullet blasts down the barrel where it strikes ridges and grooves, spinning and improving shot accuracy.
  • These ridges cause striations in the bullet's soft metal by digging into it.
  • An examiner analyses these distinctive markings to verify whether a given bullet was shot from a specific firearm.
  • A barrel will produce individual markings in addition to a bullet's land and groove impressions as the projectile passes through.

An insulated Thermos contains 140 cm3 of hot coffee at 85.0°C. You put in a 15.0 g ice cube at its melting point to cool the cof
Pavel [41]

Answer:

T = 69^o C

Explanation:

Here at thermal equilibrium we can say that thermal energy given by Hot coffee is equal to the thermal energy absorbed by ice cubes

So here we have

Q_{ice} = Q_{coffee}

now since ice cubes are added into coffee when it is at melting temperature

So here we can say that final temperature of coffee is T degree C

Now we have

m_1L + m_1c_1\Delta T_1 = m_2c_2\Delta T_2

here we have

m_1 = 15 gram

L = 333 kJ/kg = 333 J/g[/tex]

c_1 = c_2 = 4186 J/kg C = 4.186 J/g C

\Delta T_1 = T - 0

\Delta T_2 = 85 - T

now we have

15(333) + 15(4.186)(T - 0) = 140(4.186)(85 - T)

4995 + 62.79T = 49813.4 - 586.04T

648.83 T = 44818.4

T = 69^o C

Determine the density of a rectangular piece of concrete that measures 3.7 cm by 2.1 cm by 5.8 cm and has a mass of 43.8 grams.
Novay_Z [31]
It is customary to work in SI units.

Calculate the volume of the concrete.
V = 3.7*2.1*5.8 cm³ = 45.066 cm³ = 45.066 x 10 ⁻⁶ m³

The mass is  43.8 g = 43.8 x 10⁻³ kg

The density is mass/volume.
Density = (43.8 x 10⁻³ kg)/(45.066 x 10⁻⁶ m³) = 971.9 kg/m³

Answer: 971.9 kg/m³

A cosmic catastrophic event occurred that caused the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to its plane of orbit to increase from 23
Gnom [1K]

Answer: The elimination of seasonal variations

Explanation:

Since the cosmic catastrophic event which occurred led to the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to the plane of orbit to increase from 23.5° to 90°, the most obvious effect of this change would be the elimination of seasonal variations.

It should be noted that seasonal variation refers to the variation in a time series that's within a year which is repeated. The cause of seasonal variation can include rainfall, temperature, etc.
