Jeremiah is conducting an investigation about the water cycle. He is given the following

Vlada [557]

The water cycle outlines the continuous water movement in liquid, solid and gaseous state between locations on the Earth's surface.

The glass jar represents the lake while the atmosphere is represented by the space above the water, and the sky is represented by the (clear) plastic wrap

Arrangement description and Processes;

The processes of the water cycle includes;

Evaporation;

Condensation

Precipitation

Sublimation

Runoff

Infiltration

The arrangement of the materials is as follows;

Place the glass jar (the lake) containing water and the lamp (the Sun) side by side, such that the lamp light shines on the water surface

Cover the glass jar by wrapping the plastic wrap (the sky) around it to prevent the escape of water vapor when the water is hot.

Switch on the lamp so that it heats the water by radiation heat transfer

Observed processes;

The processes demonstrated by the above experiment includes;

1) Evaporation: As the water in the glass jar becomes warmer, the level of the water in the jar can be observed to decrease slightly due to evaporation

2) Condensation: Fog formation, Clouds

When hotter, the water surface as seen through the clear plastic wrap becomes less clearer due to evaporation, and condensation of the vapor while floating above the water surface, similar to the clouds seen in the sky.

3. Precipitation: Rain;

The clear plastic wrap covering the top of the glass jar, prevents the movement of the vapor further away, such that the tiny condensed vapor gather together, to form big droplets under the plastic wrap that falls back into the jar, which is similar to the process of rainfall

The above processes are repeated as more water evaporates from the jar condenses on the plastic wrap and falls back into the jar, showing the process by which water is recycled from the lake into the atmosphere and back to the lake.

While riding in a hot air balloon, which is steadily decreasing at a speed of 1.14 m/s, you accidentally drop your cell phone. H

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The distance covered by the balloon is 47.52 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the balloon, u = 1.14 m/

Let us assumed we need to find the distance covered by the balloon after t = 3 second. Let d is the distance covered by the balloon. It can be given by :

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2$

Here, a = g

$d=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

$d=1.14\times 3+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (3)^2$

d = 47.52 meters

So, the distance covered by the balloon is 47.52 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the speed of a cyclist that rides west 88 km in 32 minutes?

suter [353]

Answer:

The speed of the cyclist is 2.75 km/min.

Explanation:

Given

The distance d = 88 km

Time t = 32 minutes

To determine

We need to find the speed of a cyclist.

In order to determine the speed of a cyclist, all we need to do is to divide the distance covered by a cyclist by the time taken to cover the distance.

Using the formula involving speed, time, and distance

$s=\frac{d}{t}$
