Answer : Scale

Explanation : The area on the thermometer marked with the letter A is called the scale.

The scale of temperature is a way to measure temperature quantitatively.

A thermometer is a device that measures temperature.

we use three temperature scale

1. Fahrenheit

2. Celsius

3. Kelvin

the average american receives 2.28 mSv dose equivalent from radon each year. Assuming you receive this dose, and it all comes fr

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The approximate number of decays this represent is $N= 23*10^{10}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The amount of Radiation received by an average american is $I_a = 2.28 \ mSv$

The source of the radiation is $S = 5.49 MeV \ alpha \ particle$

Generally

$1 \ J/kg = 1000 mSv$

Therefore $2.28 \ mSv = \frac{2.28}{1000} = 2.28 *10^{-3} J/kg$

Also $1eV = 1.602 *10^{-19}J$

Therefore $2.28*10^{-3} \frac{J}{kg} = 2.28*10^{-3} \frac{J}{kg} * \frac{1ev}{1.602*10^{-19} J} = 1.43*10^{16} ev/kg$

An Average american weighs 88.7 kg

The total energy received is mathematically evaluated as

$1 kg ------> 1.423*10^{16}ev \\88.7kg --------> x$

Cross-multiplying and making x the subject

$x = 88.7 * 1.423*10^{16} eV$

$x = 126.2*10^{16}eV$

Therefore the total energy deposited is $x = 126.2*10^{16}eV$

The approximate number of decays this represent is mathematically evaluated as

N = $\frac{x}{S}$

Where n is the approximate number of decay

Substituting values

$N = \frac{126 .2*10^{16}}{5.49*10^6}$

$N= 23*10^{10}$

How much heat is evolved when 1234 g of water condenses to a liquid at 100.°c?

lbvjy [14]

During the phase transition vapour --> liquid water, the temperature of the water does not change; the molecules of water release heat and the amounf of heat released is equal to
$Q=mL_e$
where
m is the mass of the water
$L_e$ is the latent heat of evaporation.

For water, the latent heat of evaporation is $L=2257 kJ/kg$ , while the mass of the water is
$m=1234 g=1.234 kg$

so, the amount of heat released in the process is
$Q=mL_e = (1.234 kg)(2257 kJ/kg)=2785 kJ$

Meter #1 can measure voltage to within 0.1 volts. Meter #2 can measure voltage to within 0.01 volts.

Ann [662]

Meter #2 is more precise.

There's no information here that tells us which meter is more accurate.
