How does the vacuum between the inner and outer walls of a thermos bottle limit energy loss through conduction and convection?

By having no solid matter between the walls (like styrofoam) conduction is eliminated since conduction requires matter to be in contact with other matter.  The vacuum state eliminates convection since that is the heating of gas that then carries the energy to another body by traveling there and exchanging heat with it.

A clay ball with a mass of 0.48kg has an initial speed of 4.08m/s it strikes a 3.04kg clay ball at rest and the two balls stick
Rom4ik [11]
Final velocity = 0, thus final kinetic energy is 0
Initial kinetic energy:
0.5mv²
= 0.5 x 0.48 x 4.08²
= 4.0 J
Decrease in kinetic energy = 4 - 0 = 4 Joules

The standard normal curve is not symmetrical. <br> a. True<br> b. False
FrozenT [24]

Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;

Symmetrical distribution, commonly known as symmetric distribution or normal distribution, is typically unimodal, meaning it shows only one peak in graph form.

It is a type of distribution where the left side of the distribution mirrors the right side. By definition, a symmetric distribution is never a skewed distribution.

All normal distributions are symmetric and have bell-shaped density curves with a single peak.

ra1l [238]

Answer:

- Peat soil

- Loamy soil

- Clay soil

Explanation:

Peat soil is dark, highly decomposed organic matter found in soil.

Loamy soil is a mixture of materials that holds moisture and drains well and also contains coarse grains and allows water to drain quickly.

Clay soil contains medium grains and retains water. Also it contains fine grains and has little space for water.

Given that the concentration of bovine carbonic anhydrase is 3.3 pmol ⋅ L − 1 and R max ( V max ) = 222 μmol ⋅ L − 1 ⋅ s − 1 , d
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The turnover number of the enzyme molecule bovine carbonic anhydrase = 67,272,727.27 s^–1.

Explanation:

Given:

The concentration of bovine carbonic anhydrase = total enzyme concentration = Et = 3.3 pmol⋅L^–1 = 3.3 × 10^–12 mol.L^–1

The maximum rate of reaction = Rmax (Vmax) = 222 μmol⋅L^–1⋅s^–1 = 222 × 10^–6 mol.L^–1⋅s^–1

The formula for the turnover number of an enzyme (kcat, or catalytic rate constant) = Rmax ÷ Et = 222 × 10^–6 mol.L^–1⋅s^–1 ÷ 3.3 × 10^–12 mol.L^–1 = 67,272,727.27 s^–1

Therefore, the turnover number of the enzyme molecule bovine carbonic anhydrase = 67,272,727.27 s^–1
