Explain why dogs pant during hot summer days using the evaporation concept?
damaskus [11]
All, or almost all, warm-blooded creatures get rid of excess heat by evaporating moisture from their bodies. It's a great system, because evaporation takes a lot of heat. That's the reason people perspire when we're active and build up a lot of heat inside. The evaporation of sweat from our skin carries away heat with it. Dogs do not sweat on their skin. The only place they can evaporate moisture is through their mouth. Panting speeds up the evaporation by blowing air across the moisture.

A tightrope walker more easily balances on a tightwire if his pole
cestrela7 [59]
B) droops.

Why?
To maintain balance, you do not need something short so you're balanced well... You need something long and droopy to maintain balance. The pole should be held by your waist and it should be light.

I am Lyosha [343]

The steps in the heating of a metal seat in a park are:

Step 1: Heat travels from the sun to Earth

Step 2: Heat travels through atmosphere to the top of the seat

Step 3: Heat from the top of the seat travels through the seat to the lower parts of the seat.

-- Heat is transferred by radiation in Step 1 and Step 2. <em>(B)</em>

-- From the top of the seat to the bottom, heat is transferred by conduction.  

There's no convection happening anywhere in the park-hot-seat scenario.

Consider a container of oxygen gas at a temperature of 23°C that is 1.00 m tall. Compare the gravitational potential energy of a
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

Yes, it is reasonable to neglect it.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, a single molecule of oxygen weights 32 g (diatomic oxygen) thus, the mass of kilograms is (consider Avogadro's number):

m=1molec*\frac{1mol}{6.022x10^{23}molec} *\frac{32g}{1mol}*\frac{1kg}{1000g}=5.31x10^{-26}kg

After that, we compute the potential energy 1.00 m above the reference point:

U=mhg=5.31x10^{-26}kg*1.00m*9.8\frac{m}{s^2}=5.2x10^{-25}J

Then, we compute the average kinetic energy at the specified temperature:

K=\frac{3}{2}\frac{R}{Na}T

Whereas N_A stands for the Avogadro's number for which we have:

K=\frac{3}{2} \frac{8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}}{6.022x10^{23}/mol}*(23+273)K\\ \\K=6.13x10^{-21}J

In such a way, since the average kinetic energy energy is about 12000 times higher than the potential energy, it turns out reasonable to neglect the potential energy.

Regards.
