A volumetric flask made of Pyrex is calibrated at 20.0°C. It is filled to the 285-mL mark with 40.5°C glycerin. After the flask

is filled, the glycerin cools and the flask warms so that the combination of glycerin and flask reaches a uniform temperature of 32.0°C. The combination is then cooled back to 20.0°C
What is the volume of the glycerin when it cools to 20.0°C?

Answer:

V_f = 287.04 mL

Explanation:

We are given the initial/original volume of the glycerine as 285 mL.

Now, after it is finally cooled back to 20.0 °C , its volume is given by the formula;

V_f = V_i (1 + βΔT)

Where;

V_f is the final volume

V_i is the original volume = 285 mL

β is the coefficient of expansion of glycerine and from online tables, it has a value of 5.97 × 10^(-4) °C^(−1)

Δt is change in temperature = final temperature - initial temperature = 32 - 20 = 12 °C

Thus, plugging in relevant values;

V_f = 285(1 + (5.97 × 10^(-4) × 12))

V_f = 287.04 mL

What happens when two waves meet
olganol [36]

Wave interference is the phenomenon that occurs when two waves meet while traveling along the same medium. The interference of waves causes the medium to take on a shape that results from the net effect of the two individualwaves upon the particles of the medium.Hope this help!

Which features on mars point to the possibility of liquid water on the planet?
Stells [14]
     In 2011 NASA researchers identified features on Mars known as Recuring Slope Lineae ( or RSL ). RSL are relatively dark and narrow features.They are thought to be a signs of salty liquid water on Mars. One hypothesis for RSL formation is that they form when underground bodies of salty water leak into the surface.
   Answer: Recuring Slope Lineae.

Metal sphere A has a charge of − Q . −Q. An identical metal sphere B has a charge of + 2 Q . +2Q. The magnitude of the electric
Goshia [24]

Complete Question:

Metal sphere A has a charge of − Q . −Q. An identical metal sphere B has a charge of + 2 Q . +2Q. The magnitude of the electric force on sphere B due to sphere A is F . F. The magnitude of the electric force on sphere A due to sphere B must be:

A. 2F

B. F/4

C. F/2

D. F

E. 4F

Answer:

D.

Explanation:

If both spheres can be treated as point charges, they must obey the Coulomb's law, that can be written as follows (in magnitude):

F =\frac{kQ*2Q}{r^{2} }

As it can be seen, this force is proportional to the product of the charges, so it must be the same for both charges.

As this force obeys also the Newton's 3rd Law, we conclude that the magnitude of the electric force on sphere A due to sphere B, must be equal to the the magnitude of the force on the sphere B due to the sphere A, i.e., just F.

What is the source of all electromagnetic waves?
kherson [118]

Answer:

Accelerating charges.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves produced by the vibration of both electrical and magnetic fields.

This interaction produces an energy source that does not require any medium to propagate.

To produce electromagnetic waves, electric and magnetic fields must be vibrating.

An electric charge produced when vibrating under voltage will produce electromagnetic waves. This is the same for all sources of these waves.

The sun produces electromagnetic waves. A lot of human activities also does this.
