Most of the time the towns get flooded and many people die and lose their homes and their jobs, businesses by the floods and the natural environment is destroyed ,air pollution is produced, the ecosystem could be disrupted and dams are known to fall over and dams are really expensive to build, The dams also cause geological damage, example earthquakes and spills happen.

Write a question about how changing temperature affects gas
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

"How does the volume of a gas kept at constant pressure change as its temperature is increased?"

Explanation:

One possible question can be:

"How does the volume of a gas kept at constant pressure change as its temperature is increased?"

The answer to this question is contained in Charle's law, which states that for a gas at constant pressure, the volume of the gas is proportional to its absolute temperature:

V\propto T

Or also written as

\frac{V}{T}=const.

By looking at this equation, we can find immediately the answer to our question: as the (absolute) temperature of the gas increases, the volume increases as well, by the same proportion.

What is the highest energy photon that can be absorbed by a ground-state hydrogen atom without causing ionization?
lakkis [162]

Highest energy photon absorbed: 2.18\cdot 10^{-18}J

Explanation:

An atom is said to be (positively) ionised when it absorbs a photon, and as a consequence, an electron becomes energetic enough to escape the atom, leaving an excess of positive charge behind.

In order for the electron to escape, the energy of the absorbed photon must be exactly equal to the (negative) energy of the level in which the electron lies.

For an hydrogen atom, the energy levels are given by

E_n = -13.6 \frac{1}{n^2}

where this energy is measured in electronvolts, and n is the number of the energy level.

Since the energy is negative, this means that the electron which requires most energy is the one lying in the ground state (n=1). Therefore, for an electron in the ground state, the most energy that can be absorbed from the incoming photon is

E_1 = -13.6 eV

Converting into Joules, this is equal to

E_1 = 13.6 \cdot 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}=2.18\cdot 10^{-18}J

Two families meet at the park at 10:00am. Each family uses a different way of transportation to get there. The Gonzalez family l
pav-90 [236]

Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.

1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.

For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.

P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.

What are the effects of gravity on earth?​
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Without it, we could not survive on Earth. Earth orbits the sun due to the gravity of the sun, which maintains us at a convenient distance from it to enjoy the sun's warmth and light. It keeps the air we need to breathe and our atmosphere in place. Our planet is held together by gravity.
