How is heavy water different from normal water

Physics
2 answers:
Vsevolod [243]3 years ago
7 0

The answer is C. An oxygen atom in heavy water has an extra neutron.

I say this because heavy water is also water, but it contains a higher proportion of the hydrogen isotope – deuterium. Two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom makes a water molecule. Deuterium is very much the same as that of normal hydrogen, but contains an extra neutron.

So therefore, the answer is C.

The bellow of a territorial bull hippopotamus is measured at 100 dB above the threshold of hearing. What is the sound intensity?
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The hippopotamus hearing threshold is 100dB

β = 100 dB

The threshold of human hearing is Io = 1 × 10^-12 W/m²

The sound intensity level is given as

β = 10•Log(I / Io)

100 = 10•Log(I / Io)

Divided Both sides by 10

100 / 10 = Log(I / Io)

10 = Log(I / Io)

Take inverse Logarithm ( antilog) of both sides

10^10 = 10^[Log(I / Io)]

10^10 = I / Io

Then,

I = 10^10 × Io

I = 10^10 × 1 × 10^-12

I = 1 × 10^-2 W/m²

I = 0.01 W/m²

The sound intensity is 0.01 W/m²

Which statement best explains how a planet affects the orbit of a comet as the comet passes by the planet?
mezya [45]
Comets orbit the sun just like planets do. Except a comet usually has a very elongated orbit. Thanks to the laws of gravity comets obey the same laws. A comets orbit takes it very close to the sun and then far away again.
