hhTwo cups of the same size are filled to the brim with clear liquids. Cup A holds water. Cup B contains alcohol. Your teacher c

hallenges you to figure out which cup holds water. Because of your great science knowledge, you know that all substances have their own special properties. You and your lab partner add an ice cube to each cube. The ice floats in one liquid. You predict it is water. And the ice sinks in the other liquid. You predict that liquid is alcohol. What property of matter did you use to identify the liquids?

You used density, because water/ice has a density of 1, and ice will sink in anything with a lesser density

A projectile rolls off a cliff with a velocity of 40 m/s. The cliff is 60 meters high.
masya89 [10]

Answer:

1) t = 3.45 s, 2)  x = 138 m, 3) v_{y} = -33.81 m /s, 4) v = 52.37 m / s ,

5) θ = -40.2º

Explanation:

This is a projectile exercise, as they indicate that the projectile rolls down the cliff, it goes with a horizontal speed when leaving the cliff, therefore the speed is v₀ₓ = 40 m / s.

1) Let's calculate the time that Taardaen reaches the bottom, we place the reference system at the bottom of the cliff

      y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

When leaving the cliff the speed is horizontal  v_{oy}= 0 and at the bottom of the cliff y = 0

      0 = y₀ - ½ g t2

      t = √ 2y₀ / g

      t = √ (2 60 / 9.8)

      t = 3.45 s

2) The horizontal distance traveled

     x = v₀ₓ t

     x = 40 3.45

     x = 138 m

3) The vertical velocity at the point of impact

     v_{y} = I go - g t

     v_{y} = 0 - 9.8 3.45

     v_{y} = -33.81 m /s

the negative sign indicates that the speed is down

4) the resulting velocity at this point

   v = √ (vₓ² + v_{y}²)

   v = √ (40² + 33.8²)

   v = 52.37 m / s

5) angle of impact

    tan θ = v_{y} / vx

    θ = tan⁻¹ v_{y} / vx

    θ = tan⁻¹ (-33.81 / 40)

    θ = -40.2º

6) sin (-40.2) = -0.6455

7) tan (-40.2) = -0.845

8) when the projectile falls down the cliff, the horizontal speed remains constant and the vertical speed increases, therefore the resulting speed has a direction given by the angle that is measured clockwise from the x axis

Fiona followed these steps for a scientific investigation: 1. Collect baking soda and vinegar 2. Pour baking soda into a bowl. 3
horrorfan [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct statement is combining baking soda and vinegar will cause a chemical change.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A chemical reaction is defined as the reaction in which two or more chemical substances react to form two or more different chemical substances

A new substance (product) is formed in a chemical reaction when the bonds between the reactants are broken so that the new bonds between the products can be formed.

A physical process is defined as the process in which the physical state of matter takes place. Like, in the process of vaporization, a liquid state changes to the gaseous state without changing the composition of species.

When baking soda (Sodium bicarbonate) is reacted with vinegar (acetic acid), it leads to the formation of sodium acetate, water, and carbon dioxide.

A new compound is getting formed in this process which is denoted by the chemical equation:

NaHCO_3+CH_3COOH\rightarrow CH_3COONa+H_2O+CO_2

Hence, the correct statement is combining baking soda and vinegar will cause a chemical change.

A speedy tortoise can run with a speed of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_T" id="TexFormula1" title="v_T" alt="v_T" align="a
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

t_{H}  = t_{T}  - 60

Explanation:

Thinking process:

Let:

distance = speed × time

for the hare:

d_{H}  = s_{H} t_{H}

for the tortoise:

d_{T}  = s_{T} t_{T}

Let the length of the shell be s. Then the two are related. So:

d_{H}  = d_{T}  - s

Let's say the hare ran at x times the speed of the tortoise:

s_{H}  = xs_{T}

So, the equation still holds : t_{H}  = t_{T}  - 60
