Formula\ for\ density:\\\\
p=\frac{m}{V}\\p-density,\\m-mass,\\V-volume\\\\
Data:\\
m=50,4grams\\
V=57,9cm^3\\\\
p=\frac{50,4g}{57,9cm^3}=0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}\\\\Density\ of\ paraffin\ is\ equal\ to\ 0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}.

A student witnesses a flash of lightning and then t=2.5s later the student hears assiciated clap of thunder. (please show work)
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

857.5 m

2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds

Explanation:

Time taken by the sound of the thunder to reach the student = 2.5 s

Speed of sound in air is 343 m/s

Speed of light is 3×10⁸ m/s

Distance travelled by the sound = Time taken by the sound × Speed of sound in air

⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 2.5×343 = 857.5 m

⇒Distance travelled by the sound = 857.5 m

Time taken by light = Distance the light travelled / Speed of light

\text{Time taken by light}=\frac{857.5}{3\times 10^8}\\\Rightarrow  \text{Time taken by light}=2.8583\times 10^{-6}

Time taken by light = 2.8583×10⁻⁶ seconds

1. For a reaction to occur, energy must be
amm1812

For a reaction to occur, energy must be absorbed to break chemical bonds

<u>Explanation:</u>

Reactions can be classified as chemical reaction, nuclear reaction, thermal reaction. So in these three reaction types, the nature of energy will only be varying.

But in order to execute a reaction, there should be breaking of existing bonds and then formation of new bonds. So for breaking of the bonds of reactants, energy should be absorbed from the surrounding.

Then the extra energy will be released after forming the products. Thus, the process of absorption of energy will lead to endothermic process and the process of releasing of energy will lead to exothermic reaction. So for a reaction to occur, energy must be absorbed to break the chemical bonds.

Why is the picture above not an accurate representation of charges and their field lines?
pochemuha
Because field lines don’t all go in to the pole. The bottom half go outwards not inwards.

What is the direction of the centripetal force when applied to an object?
mihalych1998 [28]
For an object moving in a path that's a circle or a part of one,
the centripetal force acts in the direction toward the center of
the circle.  That direction is perpendicular to the way the object
is moving.
