The composition of the protoplanetary disk varies with distance from the protostar due to temperature.

lesantik [10]

Answer:

b) 1. Iron, silicates, carbon

2. Water

3. Methane, Ammonia, Carbon Dioxide.

Explanation:

Protoplanetry disk is the disk of gases and clouds of dust that rotates around the newly made star. The temperature of the protoplanetry disk actually determines the type of the planet that is to be formed. Inner part of the protoplanetry disk is closer to the sun thats why it is the hottest and denser part and composed of the materials like Iron, silicates, carbon as they have high melting points. Then comes those materials that exist in the solid form at lower temperatures such as the volatile materials like water. Ater that the protoplanetry disk is made of highly volatile materials that exists in solid from only at low coldest temperatures. So the outer part of the protoplanetry disk is made up of the Methane, Ammonia and Carbon Dioxide.

The Shinkansen (bullet train in Japan) makes a trip from Tokyo Station to Kyoto station in 2 hours and 14 min. The distance trav

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

v = 57.2 m/s

Explanation:

The average velocity of the train can be defined as the total distance covered by the train divided by the time taken by the train to cover that distance. Therefore, we will use the following formula to find the average velocity of the train:

v = s/t

where,

s = distance covered = 460 km = (460 km)(1000 m/1 km) = 4.6 x 10⁵ m

t = time taken to cover the distance = 2 h 14 min

Now, we convert it into minutes:

t = (2 h)(60 min/1 h) + 14 min

t = 120 min + 14 min = (134 min)(60 s/1 min)

t = 8040 s

Therefore, the value of velocity will be:

v = (4.6 x 10⁵ m)/8040 s

v = 57.2 m/s

A motorist is driving at 20m/s when she sees that a traffic light 200m ahead has just turned red. She knows that this light stay

yuradex [85]

Answer:

5.71428571422 m/s

Explanation:

u = Initial velocity = 20 m/s

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration

Time taken = 15-1 = 14 s

Distance traveled in 1 second = $20\times 1=20\ m$

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 200-20=20\times 14+\frac{1}{2}\times a\times 14^2\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{2(180-20\times14)}{14^2}\\\Rightarrow a=-1.02040816327\ m/s^2$

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow v=20-1.02040816327\times 14\\\Rightarrow v=5.71428571422\ m/s$

The speed as she reaches the light at the instant it turns green is 5.71428571422 m/s

suggest an experiment to prove that the rate of evaporation of a liquid depends on its surface area vapour already present in su

gulaghasi [49]

That's two different things it depends on:

-- surface area exposed to the air
AND
-- vapor already present in the surrounding air.

Here's what I have in mind for an experiment to show those two dependencies:

-- a closed box with a wall down the middle, separating it into two closed sections;

-- a little round hole in the east outer wall, another one in the west outer wall,
and another one in the wall between the sections;
So that if you wanted to, you could carefully stick a soda straw straight into one side,
through one section, through the wall, through the other section, and out the other wall.

-- a tiny fan that blows air through a tube into the hole in one outer wall.

Experiment A:

-- Pour 1 ounce of water into a narrow dish, with a small surface area.
-- Set the dish in the second section of the box ... the one the air passes through
just before it leaves the box.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
=============================
-- Pour 1 ounce of water into a wide dish, with a large surface area.
-- Set the dish in the second section of the box ... the one the air passes through
just before it leaves the box.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
=============================
Show that the 1 ounce of water evaporated faster 
when it had more surface area.
============================================
============================================

Experiment B:

-- Again, pour 1 ounce of water into the wide dish with the large surface area.
-- Again, set the dish in the second half of the box ... the one the air passes
through just before it leaves the box.
-- This time, place another wide dish full of water in the first section of the box,
so that the air has to pass over it before it gets through the wall to the wide dish
in the second section. Now, the air that's evaporating water from the dish in the
second section already has vapor in it before it does the job.
-- Start the fan.
-- Count the amount of time it takes for the 1 ounce of water to completely evaporate.
==========================================
Show that it took longer to evaporate when the air 
blowing over it was already loaded with vapor.
==========================================
