Answer:False

Explanation:

Turn the key to lock is not advisable as it lock the steering wheel and may create a dangerous situation.

Following steps can be taken in this situation

  • Try to press the brake to stop the vehicle
  • Shift gear to neutral in order to cease the acceleration of car.
  • Try to lift the gas pedal in order to decrease the velocity of car.

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The above statement is true as when we turn the key to lock the steering wheel the engine is  also turned off. This makes the situation safer for the driver. Provided the driver need not change direction. Moreover, warn other drivers by blinking or flashing the hazard lights.

How do hydrogen bonds affect boiling points?
Yuri [45]

Boiling points are raised by hydrogen bonds because they make different molecules desire to "attach" to one another, which requires more energy to do so. In water, for instance, the hydrogen proton is in a state that resembles ionization because the connections between oxygen and hydrogen, while covalent, are strongly polar. The oxygen also receives a partial negative charge. Therefore, hydrogen bonds are formed when the electro-positive H in one molecule is strongly electrostatically attracted to the electro-negative O in nearby molecules. Despite being weak links, they are powerful enough to significantly alter the liquid's characteristics.  

Thanks!

Explain how energy balance sets planetary temperature? Imagine a planet colder than expected for energy balance and explain why
RUDIKE [14]

The planetary temperature energy balance is obtained by radiating back the absorbed radiation energy from outer-space, by the planet and thus acquiring thermal equilibrium.

What is the process of attaining thermal equilibrium by Earth?

The Stefan-Boltzmann law states that the more the temperature a planet has, the more it will radiate out to reach thermal equilibrium.

We know that outer space contains large masses of radiative energy freely distributed in its vast expanse. A small fraction of this energy is absorbed by the Earth through the atmosphere, surface land, clouds etc.

Now, radiative balance is achieved when a planet's surface continuously warms up until it reaches its peak at which point the same amount of absorbed energy can then be radiated back to space. The relative amount of energy radiated back by a planet is dependent upon the size of the planet.

A colder planet relatively absorbs lower amount of radiation energy from space. In some time, as the planet heats up enough, the energy is radiated back to the space attaining thermal equilibrium.

A spherical soap bubble with a surface-tension of 0.005 lbf/ft is expanded from a diameter of 0.5 in to 3.0 in. How much work, i
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:W = 1.23×10^-6BTU

Explanation: Work = Surface tension × (A1 - A2)

W= Surface tension × 3.142 ×(D1^2 - D2^2)

Where A1= Initial surface area

A2= final surface area

Given:

D1=0.5 inches , D2= 3 inches

D1= 0.5 × (1ft/12inches)

D1= 0.0417 ft

D2= 3 ×(1ft/12inches)

D2= 0.25ft

Surface tension = 0.005lb ft^-1

W = [(0.25)^2 - (0.0417)^2]

W = 954 ×10^6lbf ft × ( 1BTU/778lbf ft)

W = 1.23×10^-6BTU
