Which of the following is not an example of a mechanical wave?

Chemistry
1 answer:
stepladder [879]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Option D

Explanation:

A mechanical wave is a wave of energy that can travel long distances and could go through characteristics of matter such as solids, liquids, and gases. Mechanical waves can also travel through vacuums. A good example of a mechanical wave would be sound, sound is a wave spread through a object and can go through different types of matter. Which is why your answer is option D "sunshine." Light cannot go through a vacuum while sounds, and water can.

Hope this helps.

A diesel truck produces 47.5kJ of useful output energy from 125kJ of diesel fuel.what is the truck efficiency?.show the solution
Alex Ar [27]
You have to do a report :
\frac{E_f}{E_i} =  \frac{47,5}{125} = 0,38

So the truck efficiency is 38%.

Students in class argue about whether salt (NaCl) or water (H2O) has stronger intramolecular forces. Which argument is BEST?
Yanka [14]

Since intermolecular forces is stronger in a solid than a liquid, then NaCl has stronger intermolecular forces than H2O.

Intermolecular forces exists between molecules of the same or different kinds. Water has a dipole moment hence it can interact effectively with the ions in NaCl. This leads to an ion dipole interaction that results in the dissolution of NaCl in H2O.

NaCl is a solid and water is a liquid. Since intermolecular forces is stronger in a solid than a liquid, then NaCl has stronger intermolecular forces than H2O.

Hence, the best argument that compares the intermolecular interactions in water and NaCl is; salt is a solid and water is a liquid, so water has stronger intramolecular forces.

Which of the following reactions is endothermic?
Andreyy89
<h2>Which of the following reactions is endothermic-</h2><h2>½N2(g) + O2(g) + 8.1 kcal → NO2(g)</h2>

Explanation:

Chemical reaction

When two or more substances react and form some new substance it is called as chemical reaction .

A + B --> C + D

(reactants )   (products )

When ever chemical reaction occurs following changes can occur :

  • Change in colour
  • Ppt formation
  • energy changes
  • Change in state
  • Evolution of gas etc

On the basis of energy changes : reactions are of two types :

Endothermic

Exothermic

Endothermic reaction

A reaction in which heat is absorbed .

Example :½N2(g) + O2(g) + 8.1 kcal → NO2(g)

Exothermic reaction

A reaction in which heat is released .

For example : H2(g) + ½O2(g) → H2O(g), ΔH = -57.82 kcal

½N2(g) + 3/2H2(g) → NH3(g) + 11.0 kcal

C(diamond) + O2(g) → CO2, ΔH = -94.50 kcal

What determines how many items make up a particular unit
Ierofanga [76]
The Avogadro's number determines how many items make up a particular unit, such that 1 mole of a substance contains 6.022 × 10^23 items.
These items may be particles such as molecules, atoms, ions , etc
Therefore, 1 mole of anything has 6.022×10^23 items.
This number is called the Avogadro's constant and applies to all substances, and is normally used by researchers and scientists to determine the number of moles of elements and compounds.
