Density, (D) is the answer. Heat and Temperature, we all should know what that is. And pressure is like pushing down on something or along those lines. Leaves us with density, the definition explained it.

Because the pressure falls, water boils at a lower temperature with increasing altitude. Consequently, cake mixes and boiled egg

Answer:

1) The boiling point of water reduces by 3.28°C at 1,000 m above sea-level

2) The boiling point of water reduces by 6.56°C at 2,000 m above sea-level

Explanation:

The variation of the boiling point of water with elevation is given as follows

The boiling point reduces by 0.5°C for every 152.4 meter increase in elevation

At sea-level, the boiling point temperature of water = 100°C

1) At 1,000 m elevation, the boiling point temperature, T = 100 - (1,000/152.4) × 0.5 ≈ 96.72 °C

Therefore, the boiling point of water reduces by 100° - 96.72° = 3.28°C at 1,000 m above sea-level

2) At 2,000 m elevation, the boiling point temperature, T = 100 - (2,000/152.4) × 0.5 ≈ 93.44°C

The boiling point of water reduces by 100° - 93.44° = 6.56°C at 2,000 m above sea-level

what would the mass be of an object that was moving at a velocity of 35 m/s and has a kinetic energy of 500j be?

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

0.816 kg

Explanation:

$E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\\$

so $m=\frac{2E_k}{v^2}=\frac{2\times500}{35^2}=0.816 kg$

a snail can move approximately 0.30 meters per minute.How many meters can the snail cover in 15 minutes ?

hichkok12 [17]

Sometimes if you have the word per, you need to multiply. In this problem, they are asking you to find the amount of meters a snail can travel per minute.They are giving you the amount of minutes, so in this case you multiply 15 times 0.30. The answer is 4.5 meters.

Consider a river flowing toward a lake at an average speed of 3 m/s at a rate of 550 m3/s at a location 58 m above the lake surf

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

1. 0.574 kJ/kg

2. 315.7 MW

Explanation:

1. The mechanical energy per unit mass of the river is given by:

$E_{m} = E_{k} + E_{p}$

$E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}v^{2} + gh$

Where:

Ek is the kinetic energy

Ep is the potential energy

v is the speed of the river = 3 m/s

g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h is the height = 58 m

$E_{m} = \frac{1}{2}(3 m/s)^{2} + 9.81 m/s^{2}*58 m = 0.574 kJ/Kg$

Hence, the total mechanical energy of the river is 0.574 kJ/kg.

2. The power generation potential on the river is:

$P = m(t)E_{m} = \rho*V(t)*E_{m} = 1000 kg/m^{3}*550 m^{3}/s*0.574 kJ/kg = 315.7 MW$

Therefore, the power generation potential of the entire river is 315.7 MW.

I hope it helps you!

Why do astronomers believe that triton is a captured moon?

Dafna11 [192]

Answer: Accoding to research "Triton is unique among all the large moons in the solar system because it orbits Neptune in a direction opposite to the planet's rotation (a "retrograde" orbit). It is unlikely to have formed in this configuration and was probably captured from elsewhere."
