Alvin (DSV-2) is a manned deep-ocean research submersible owned by the United States Navy and operated by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) in Woods Hole, Massachusetts. The vehicle was built by General Mills' Electronics Group[2] in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Named to honor the prime mover and creative inspiration for the vehicle, Allyn Vine, Alvin was commissioned on 5 June 1964. The submersible is launched from the deep submergence support vessel RV Atlantis (AGOR-25), which is also owned by the U.S. Navy and operated by WHOI. The submersible has made more than 4,400 dives, carrying two scientists and a pilot, to observe the lifeforms that must cope with super-pressures
This is a list of well known characteristics of acids:
1) acids increase the concentration of hydronum ions ([H3O+]) when dissolved in water
2) acids taste sour
3) many are corrosive (the higher the acidity the higher the corrosive property)
4) when acids react with some metals produce hydrogen gas
5) acids conduct electricity (due to the presence of hydronium ions)
6) acids neutralize bases
7) acids combine with bases to produce water and salt
8) acids lower the pH of solutions.
They do not feel sticky to the touch. Bases fell slippery but there is not that property of sticky sensation about acids, although some highly concentrated strong acids have high viscosity. You cannot touch highly concentrated strong acids.
Answer:
The power dissipated in the 3 Ω resistor is P= 5.3watts.
Explanation:
After combine the 3 and 6 Ω resistor in parallel, we have an 2 Ω and a 4 Ω resistor in series.
The resultating resistor is of Req=6Ω.
I= V/Req
I= 2A
the parallel resistors have a potential drop of Vparallel=4 volts.
I(3Ω) = Vparallel/R(3Ω)
I(3Ω)= 1.33A
P= I(3Ω)² * R(3Ω)
P= 5.3 Watts
Answer:
The scientific method helps test and arrive at conclusions for a variety of hypotheses that are created when studying environmental science.
Explanation:
What is the scientific method in environmental science?
The scientific method is a method of research with defined steps that include experiments and careful observation. One of the most important aspects of this method is the testing of hypotheses by means of repeatable experiments. A hypothesis is a suggested explanation for an event, which can be tested.
Answer:
Explanation:
Force of gravity = GMm/r^2 = ma
a being the acceleration due to gravity at some distance r from the center of the Earth. I'll use 6400 km for the radius of the Earth so r = 6734 km or 6734000 meters
a = GM/r^2
plugging in G = 6.67 x 10^-11
M is the mass of the Earth = 6 x 10^24
and r is from above
a = 8.825 m/s^2 = 0.9g
so 90% the acceleration of gravity on the surface.
