Sea water contains 3.5% salts, dissolved gasses, organic substances and undissolved particulate matter. The presence of salts influences most physical properties of sea water to some degree but does not determine them. Some properties are not significantly affected by salinity. Two properties which are determined by the amount of salt in the sea are conductivity and osmotic pressure.

Ideally, salinity should be the sum of all dissolved salts in grams per kilogram of sea water. In practice, this is difficult to measure. The observation that - no matter how much salt is in the sea - the various components contribute in a fixed ratio, helps overcome the difficulty. It allows determination of salt content through the measurement of a substitution quantity and calculation of the total of all material making up the salinity from that measurement.

Determination of salinity could thus be made through its most important component, chloride. Chloride content was defined in 1902 as the total amount in grams of chlorine ions contained in one kilogram of sea water if all the halogens are replaced by chlorides. The definition reflects the chemical titration process for the determination of chloride content and is still of importance when dealing with historical data.

Salinity was defined in 1902 as the total amount in grams of dissolved substances contained in one kilogram of sea water if all carbonates are converted into oxides, all bromides and iodides into chlorides, and all organic substances oxidized. The relationship between salinity and chloride was determined through a series of fundamental laboratory measurements based on sea water samples from all regions of the world ocean and was given as

So the correct answer would be

High salinity and cold temperature result in denser water.

After driving a portion of the route, the taptap is fully loaded with a total of 27 people including the driver, with an average
belka [17]

We will define the Total mass to calculate the force, so our values are:M_p = 69*27=1823Kg\\M_g=15*3=45Kg\\M_c=3*5=15Kg\\M_B=25Kg

Total Mass = 1863+45+15+25=1948Kg

The Weight is,

F=mg=1948*98=19090.4N

Through the hook's Law we calculate X.

F_s=Kx, where x is the lenght of compression and K the Spring constant.

We don't have a K-Spring, but we can assume a random value (or simply let the equation in function of K)

X = \frac{F_s}{x} \\X = \frac{1909.4}{k}

I assume a value of K=4*10^4N/m

X= \frac{1909.4}{4*10^4} = 0.48m

The specific gravity of a substance is given by G = DS/DW, where DS is the density of the substance in kg/m3 and DW is the densit
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

G=0.5\pm0.005

Explanation:

The specific gravity is given by,

G=\frac{D_S}{D_W}=\frac{500}{1000} =0.5

Now, in order to calculate the uncertainty (relative error) in G, we must first take log (base e) on both sides of the equation,

lnG=ln(\frac{D_S}{D_W} )=lnD_S-lnD_W

Differentiating the above equation,

\frac{dG}{G}=\frac{dD_S}{D_S}

The second term is zero because it is known that D_W=1000kg/m^3 and hence a constant.

Putting the appropriate values, we get,

\frac{dG}{G}=\frac{dD_S}{D_S}=\frac{5}{500} =0.01

Therefore, uncertainty in G = 0.01\times0.5=0.005

The doppler effect is the change in observed frequency due to
Serga [27]

Answer: relative motion between observer and the sound source.

Explanation: The Doppler effect states that when there is a relative motion between an observer and a sound source the frequency of sound perceived by the observer is different in frequency from the original from the source.

The mathematical back up for this claim is given below.

f' = (v+v') /(v-vs) × f

Where f' = observed frequency

v = speed of sound in air

v' = velocity of observer

vs = velocity of source

f = frequency of sound source.

From the formulae, it can be seen that a change in the value of the velocity of observer (v') and source (vs) produces different value of observed frequency (f').

Note, frequency of sound (f) is a constant.

Answer:

Galileo

Explanation:

Galileo Galilei pioneered the experimental scientific method, and was the first to use a refracting telescope to make important astronomical discoveries. He is often referred to as the "father of modern astronomy" and the "father of modern physics". Albert Einstein called Galileo the "father of modern science."
