Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?

1 answer:

3 0

The density would decrease because the mass of an object deals with the amount of atoms in the object and since none of the object was reduced "a" wouldn't be the answer. Depending on the amount and period of time that the heat is applied the liquid could change into a gas so "d" wouldn't be correct. Density is the mass÷ volume, and when you add heat to an object it could take up different amounts of space because of its particles gaining energy and spreading apart. So the density would decrease because of the volume increasing. So I believe that "c" is the answer.

The law of conservation of matter states that matter can be neither created nor destroyed. Your friend shows you the following c

MrRa [10]

Yes, our friend is right, because there is no contradiction to the law of conservation of mass in the above equation. It just the mass of the product is equal to the mass of reactants.. and that is shown in the equation you have presented earlier

The engine of a locomotive exerts a constant force of 8.1*10^5 N to accelerate a train to 68 km/h. Determine the time (in min) t

Bumek [7]

Answer:443.1 s

Explanation:

Given

Engine of a locomotive exerts a force of $8.1\times 10^5 N$

Mass of train $=1.9\times 10^7$

Final speed (v) $=68 km/h \approx 18.88 m/s$

F=ma

so $acceleration(a) =\frac{F}{m}=\frac{8.1\times 10^5}{1.9\times 10^7}$

$a=0.042631 m/s^2$

and acceleration is

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

$0.042631=\frac{18.88-0}{t}$

$t=443.089 \approx 443.1 s$

Which telescope would be better viewing a faint, distant star? Why?

grin007 [14]

Reflecting telescope. Reflecting telescopes tend to have larger objective (due to the use of mirrors, mirrors are a lot cheaper than lenses) and have the ability to collect more light, while refracting telescopes are limited to objective lenses with smaller diameters due to their structural limitations (chromatic abbreviation, for example). Therefore, reflecting telescopes should be better at viewing faint distant stars

Nresistors, each having resistance equal to 1 2, are arranged in a circuit first in series and then in parallel. What is the rat

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

Let the resistance of each resistor is R.

In series combination,

The effective resistance is Rs.

rs = r + R + R + .... + n times = NR

Let V be the source of potential difference.

Power in series

Ps = v^2 / Rs = V^2 / NR ..... (1)

In parallel combination

the effective resistance is Rp

1 / Rp = 1 / R + 1 / R + .... + N times

1 / Rp = N / R

Rp = R / N

Power is parallel

Rp = v^2 / Rp = N V^2 / R ..... (2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2) we get

Ps / Pp = 1 / N^2
