use the different characteristics of water such as freezing and boiling points, waters density, or using your five senses. Smell it, but don't taste it, feel it, listen to it. It might crackle or pop if it has carbon.

I know that density of water is 1000kg per cubic meter or 1g per 1ml
I would take beaker and scales.
1) I would measure liquid's weight (in g)
2) measure volume (in mL)
3) divide weight by measure
4) if would get 1 as result - it's water
5) if it's above or below 1 - it's not the water

Maurinko [17]

This question is not complete.

The complete question is as follows:

One problem for humans living in outer space is that they are apparently weightless. One way around this problem is to design a space station that spins about its center at a constant rate. This creates “artificial gravity” at the outside rim of the station. (a) If the diameter of the space station is 800 m, how many revolutions per minute are needed for the “artificial gravity” acceleration to be 9.80m/s2?

Explanation:

a. Using the expression;

T = 2π√R/g

where R = radius of the space = diameter/2

R = 800/2 = 400m

g= acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s^2

1/T = number of revolutions per second

T = 2π√R/g

T = 2 x 3.14 x √400/9.8

T = 6.28 x 6.39 = 40.13

1/T = 1/40.13 = 0.025 x 60 = 1.5 revolution/minute

The parachute on a drag racing car deploys at the end of a run. If the car has a mass of 820 kg and the car is moving 36 m/s, wh

Lelechka [254]

In order to determine the required force to stop the car, proceed as follow:

Calculate the deceleration of the car, by using the following formula:

$v^2=v^2_o-2ax$

where,

v: final speed = 0m/s (the car stops)

vo: initial speed = 36m/s

x: distance traveled = 980m

a: deceleration of the car= ?

Solve the equation above for a, replace the values of the other parameters and simplify:

$\begin{gathered} a=\frac{v^2_o-v^2}{2x} \\ a=\frac{(36\frac{m}{s})^2-(0\frac{m}{s})^2}{2(980m)}=0.66\frac{m}{s^2} \end{gathered}$

Next, consider that the formula for the force is:

$F=ma$

where,

m: mass of the car = 820 kg

a: deceleration of the car = 0.66m/s^2

Replace the previous values and simplify:

$F=(820kg)(0.66\frac{m}{s^2})=542.20N$

Hence, the required force to stop the car is 542.20N

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

frequency of the sound = f = 1,030.3 Hz

phase difference = Φ = 229.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data:

Xini = 0.540m

Xfin = 0.870m

v = 340m/s

Step 2: frequency of the sound (f)

f = v / λ

λ = Xfin - Xini = 0.870 - 0.540 = 0.33

f = 340 / 0.33

f = 1,030.3 Hz

Step 3: phase difference

phase difference = Φ

Φ = (2π/λ)*(Xini - λ) = (2π/0.33)* (0.540-0.33) = 19.04*0.21 = 3.9984

Φ = 3.9984 rad * (360°/2π rad)

Φ = 229.09°

Hope this helps!
