When water freezes, it expands. what does this say about the density of ice compared with the density of water?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>When water freezes to form ice, its volume expands. However, we know from conservation of mass that the mass of the ice is the same as the mass of the water. Since density is defined fundamentally as mass / volume, and we have an expanding volume at a constant mass, the denominator of the equation grows, and thus the density of ice is lower than that of liquid water.</span>

<h3>What is a survey?</h3>

A survey is a useful tool based on population samples, which is used to make statistical analyses in a given investigation.

Differences in surveys are generally due to small sample sizes, which may lead to errors in the analysis of data.

28. Ken and Musa shared a cake such that Ken got twice the size

ratelena [41]

Answer:

$Musa = \frac{1}{3}$

$Ken = \frac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

Given

$Ken = 2 * Musa$ --- Ken's share

Required

The fraction each got

Since they both shared a cake, we have:

$Ken + Musa = 1$

Substitute: $Ken = 2 * Musa$

$2 * Musa+ Musa = 1$

Factorize

$Musa(2+ 1)= 1$

$Musa(3)= 1$

Divide both sides by 3

$Musa = \frac{1}{3}$

Recall that: $Ken = 2 * Musa$

$Ken = 2 * \frac{1}{3}$

$Ken = \frac{2}{3}$

Why do temperatures differ between air, land, and water?

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:the ocean water isn't moving into or through the atmosphere as a result of the sun's heating of the water, convection isn't the process influencing air and water temperature difference. The heat of the ocean is being given off radiated into the air, making the air substantially warmer

Calculate the acceleration of a helium nucleus (charge +2e, where e-electronic charge), when it enters an electric field of stre

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

3.8 x 10^10 m/s^2

Explanation:

Charge, q = 2 e = 2 x 1.6 x 10^-19 C = 3.2 x 10^-19 C

Electric field strength, E = 790 N/C

mass of helium nucleus, m = 6.645 x 10^-27 Kg

the force due to electric filed on a charge particle is given by

F = q x E

Where, q be the charge on the charged particle and E be the strength of electric field.

By substituting the values

F = 3.2 x 10^-19 x 790

F = 2528 x 10^-19 N

According to the Newton's second law

F = m x a

Where, me be the mass and a be the acceleration

By substituting the values

$2528\times 10^{-19}=6.645\times 10^{-27}\times a$

a = 3.8 x 10^10 m/s^2
