What happens to the boiling point of water as you climb higher up a mountain?

The higher the pressure, the higher boiling point of water. At lower the pressure, the boiling point of water comes down. So, the lower pressure inreases the boiling resulting more evaporation. As we go higher in altitude, the atmospheric pressure decreases. This results in decreasing the boiling point at higher altitude and increase in boiling of water. In fact, at the sea level ,the the sea water boils at 100 degree C where atmospheric pressre is normal. However , the boiling takes place at a lower temperature at the top of a mountain due to low pressure. In other words the boling is faster at the top of a mountain than that at its foot.

A 2.0-kilogram ball traveling north at 4.0 meters per second collides head on with a 1.0-kilogram ball traveling south at 8.0 me
enyata [817]

Answer:

We know the momentum after the collision MUST be equal to the momentum BEFORE the collision.  

Momentum is a VECTOR quantity having both magnitude and direction.  The first ball has momentum P =m*v = 2*4 = 8 at 90degrees.  The second ball has momentum P = 1*8 = 8 at -90 or 270 degrees.  They sum to zero when you perform vector addition.

A cue ball has a mass of 0.5 kg. During a game of pool, the cue ball is struck and now has a velocity of 3 . When it strikes a s
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: 3 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: during the collision between the two balls, the total momentum of the system before the collision and after the collision must be conserved:

p_i = p_f

The total momentum before the collision is given only by the cue ball, since the solid ball is initially at rest, therefore

p_i = m_c u_c = (0.5 kg)(3 m/s)=1.5 kg m/s

So, the final total momentum will also be

p_f = 1.5 kg m/s

And the total momentum after the collision is given only by the solid ball, since the cue ball is now at rest, therefore:

p_f = m_s v_s

from which we find the velocity of the solid ball

v_s = \frac{p_f}{m_s}=\frac{1.5 kg m/s}{0.5 kg}=3 m/s

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length l and mass m swings with period t. If both l and m are doubled, what is t
iVinArrow [24]

If l and m both are doubled then the period becomes √2*T

what is a simple pendulum?

It is the one which can be considered to be a point mass suspended from a string or rod of negligible mass.

A pendulum is a weight suspended from a pivot so that it can swing freely.

Here,

A certain frictionless simple pendulum having a length l and mass m

mass of pendulum = m

length of the pendulum = l

The period of simple pendulum is:

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

Where k is the constant.

Now the length and mass are doubled,

m' = 2m

l' = 2l

T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{2l}{g} }

T' = \sqrt{2}* 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

T' = \sqrt{2} * T

Hence,

If l and m both are doubled then the period becomes √2*T

75kg man climbs a mountain 1000m high in 3hrs and uses 4100 joulse/min. (a) calculate the power consumption in watt, (b) what is
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Power consumption is 4100 J/min / 60 s/min = 68.3 W(atts)

work done raised the potential energy

b) 75(9.8)(1000) / (3(3600)) = 68.055555... 68.1 W

c) efficiency is 68.1 / 68.3 = 0.99593... or nearly 100%

Not a very likely scenario.
