Polyethylene is synthesized from ethylene which is a compound derived from natural gas or petroleum. It’s essentially a thermoplastic, implying that it can be molten and remolded into the desired shape making it reusable and cost-effective. Of all the different kinds of plastics produced around the world, polyethylene is the most common and significant.

Polyethylene is manufactured in three different forms namely:

Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE),High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) andLinear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE),

Each of these three plastics has different applications ranging from containers, packaging and films to buckets and bottles.

Hope it helps you...

Polythene is used for mostly plastic.  It’s primary use is for packaging mainly to make (plastic bags, plastic films, geomembranes)

A satellite and a hockey puck are alike because they illustrate Newton's first law of motion.
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

It would be True

Explanation:

Because they both have the same push of gravity. Gravity affects all objects equally. If you drop an egg and a watermelon at the same time they would both collide with the floor at the same time.

A glass flask whose volume is 1000 cm3 at a temperature of 0.800 C is completely filled with mercury at the same temperature. Wh
ira [324]

Answer: the coefficient of volume expansion of glass = 0.86/(1000 * 52) = 0.00001654 per degree.

Explanation:

Original volume of mercury = 1000 cm3.

The final volume of mercury considering its volume expansion quotient = 1000 + 1000*(1.8*10^-4 *52) = 1000 + 9.36 = 1009.36 cm^3

Considering the glass as a non expanding substance, the complete excess volume of 9.36 cm3 of mercury should have overflown the container, but due to the expansion of glass, the capacity of mercury containment increases and so a lesser amount of mercury flows out.

The amount of mercury that actually flowed out = 8.50 cm3.

So, the expansion of the glass container = 9.36-8.50 = 0.86 cm3.

Using the formula for coefficient of expansion,

coefficient of volume expansion of glass = 0.86/(1000 * 52) = 0.00001654 per degree.

atmospheric pressure at elevations of 8000 feet averages about 0.72 atmospheres. Would a cabin pressurized at 500 mm hg meet fed
NeTakaya

Answer:

Yes, but it must be kept at that value and do not let it to decrease more.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, in order to substantiate whether the cabin meet the federal standards, we need to convert the 500 mmHg to atm and compare the result with 0.72 atm by knowing that 1 atm equals 760 mmHg:

500mmHg*\frac{1atm}{760mmHg} \\\\=0.66atm

Thus, since 0.66 atm is 0.06 atm away from the federal standard we can infer that it may meet the federal standard, however, it would not be recommended to let the pressure decrease more than that.

How much heat is released when you condense 93.9 g of water vapor? <br><br> Show work please ❤️
sammy [17]

<u>Answer:</u>

211.9 J

<u>Explanation:</u>

The molecules of water release heat during the transition of water vapor to liquid water, but the temperature of the water does not change with it.

The amount of heat released can be represented by the formula:

Q=mL_e

where Q = heat energy, m = mass of water and L = latent heat of evaporation.

The latent heat of evaporation for water is L=2257 kJ/kg and the mass of the water is m=93.9 g=0.0939 kg.

The amount of heat released in this process is:

Q=mL_e = (0.0939kg)(2257 kJ/kg)= 211.9 J
