Surface tension _____.

Physics
1 answer:
Trava [24]3 years ago
5 0

Answer : The correct option is, (D) Surface tension is caused by cohesion between water molecules on the surface.

Explanation :

Surface tension : It is caused by the cohesion between water molecules on the surface or we can say that it is a tension of the surface of liquid caused by the attraction of the particles which are present on the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area.

And due to the surface tension phenomena the shape of the water molecule tend to assume a spherical shape to attain the minimum surface area.

Hence. the correct option is, (D) Surface tension is caused by cohesion between water molecules on the surface.

<span>9000 Pascals Looking on the internet, it appears that a human can only suck about 3 feet of water. So let's convert that measurement into a few more convenient units. cmH2O = 36 * 2.54 = 91.44 cmH2O cmHg = 91.44 * 0.73555912101486 = 67.26 mmHg Pascal = 91.44 * 98.0665 = 8967 Pascals PSI = 91.44 * 0.0142233 = 1.3 psi Since we're dealing with science and the metric system is the most common system used in science, I'd recommend an answer of 9000 Pascals.</span>

Electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of 525 nm appears as green light to the human eye. Calculate the frequency of this l
12345 [234]

Answer:

5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................. Equation 1

Where v = speed of the electromagnetic radiation, λ = wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation, f = frequency

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: λ = 525 nm = 5.25×10⁻⁷ m,

Constant: Speed of electromagnetic wave (v) = 3.0×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = (3.0×10⁸)/(5.25×10⁻⁷)

f = 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz

Hence the frequency of light is 5.71×10¹⁴ Hz
