Answer:
I know that the 100-mL graduated cylinders are always read to 1 decimal place.
I think for 50 mL graduated cylinders, it lets you measure volumes up to 50.0 mL to the nearest 0.1 or 0.2 mL, depending on your exact cylinder.
Answer:
Heat
Explanation:
Temperature is the average thermal energy (or heat) in a substance. Sound isn't really related, thermometers measure temperature, and chemical reactions can produce heat, but none of those are measured by temperature.
Answer:
creation of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings, spent (used) reactor fuel, and other radioactive wastes.
Explanation:
Nuclear energy produces radioactive waste
A major environmental concern related to nuclear power is the creation of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings, spent (used) reactor fuel, and other radioactive wastes. These materials can remain radioactive and dangerous to human health for thousands of years.
D. a compound can only be separated into its components by chemical means
Answer:
- <u>1. Since the temperature of your body is higher than the temperature of the air and of the water, heat will flow from your body to the air and pool.</u>
<u></u>
- <u>2. The pool feels cooler than air because the water can absorb heat energy faster than the air, due to liquids are better conductors than gases.</u>
<u></u>
Explanation:
Heat always flows from warmer substances to colder ones.
The normal body temperature is 98ºF. Therefore, the heat will flow from your body to the air and pool, which are at a lower temperature of 80ºF. In both cases, you will lose thermal energy and the external parts of your body will cool down.
The difference between both cases is in the heat conduction capacity of both air and water.
Liquids (and solids) are better <em>thermal conductors </em>than gases because the conduction of heat occurs as result of the direct contact between the particles of matter: the atoms or molecules in hot matter vibrate faster than their neighbors and transmit them kinetic energy by direct contact.
Therefore, the liquid water in the swimming pool, at the same temperature than the air, will be able to absorb more heat in the same time from the body.
In conclusion, the body will cool down faster in water than in air which is why the pool feels cooler than air.
