Calculate the speed of a dog running through a field if he is covering 23.7 meters in 54 seconds.
Elenna [48]

Explanation:

speed = distance/time

= 23.7/54 m/s

= 0.44 m/s

speed of a dog running through a field = 0.44 m/s

What general trend applies to solubility?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Basically, solubility increases with temperature. It is the case for most of the solvents. The situation is though different for gases. With increase of the temperature they became less soluble in each other and in water, but more soluble in organic solvents.

A rectangular block of solid carbon (graphite) floats at the interface of two immiscible liquids.
Sergio039 [100]

Explanation:

Let us take the volume of block is x.

Since, the block is floating this means that it is in equilibrium. Formula to calculate net force will be as follows.

                F_{net} = Buoyancy force(F_{b}) - weight force(w)

Also, buoyancy force (F_{b}) = (volume submerged in water × density of water) + (volume in oil × density of oil)

          (F_{b}) = (0.592 V \times \rho) + (1 - 0.592)V \times 1000 g          

                      = (0.592 V \times \rho + 408 V) g

As,   W = V × density of graphite × g

It is given that density of graphite is 2.16 g/cm^{3} or 2160 kg/m^{3}.

So, W = 2160 V g

F_{net} = (0.592 V \rho + 408 V) g - 2160 V g = 0

            0.592 \rho = 1752

     \rho = 2959.46 kg/m^{3} or 2.959 g/cm^{3} is the density of oil.

It is given that mass of flask is 124.8 g.

Mass of 35.3 cm^{3} oil = 35.3 \times 2.959 104.7 g

Hence, in second weighing total mass will be calculated as follows.

                       (124.8 + 104.7) g

                       = 229.27 g

Thus, we can conclude that in the second weighing mass is 229.27 g.
