Answer:

   M = 1433.5 kg

Explanation:

This exercise is solved using the Archimedean principle, which states that the hydrostatic thrust is equal to the weight of the desalinated liquid,

              B = ρ g V

with the weight of the truck it is in equilibrium with the push, we use Newton's equilibrium condition

           Σ F = 0

           B-W = 0

           B = W

       body weight

           W = M g

the volume is

           V = l to h

           rho_liquid g (l to h) = M g

           M = rho_liquid l a h

           

we calculate

            M = 1000 4.7 6.10 0.05

           M = 1433.5 kg

Which type of central heating system is often used when heating many buildings from a central location?
Deffense [45]
Steam is often used as a central heating system when heating many buildings froma central location. So the correct option for the given question is option "D". Steam is actually generated ina single room or place mechanically or by useing fossil fuel or solar energy and then it is passed through pipelines to several rooms and buidings. This kind of system is mostly used when heating several rooms or building at once. Electric heaters are normally avoided as the cost of electricity is far higher than any other source of heating.

What is air masses? And 5 effect of it​
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

an air mass is a volume of air defined by its temperature and water vapor content. Air masses cover many hundreds or thousands of miles, and adapt to the characteristics of the surface below them. They are classified according to latitude and their continental or maritime source regions. Colder air masses are termed polar or arctic, while warmer air masses are deemed tropical. Continental and superior air masses are dry while maritime and monsoon air masses are moist. Weather fronts separate air masses with different density (temperature and/or moisture) characteristics. Once an air mass moves away from its source region, underlying vegetation and water bodies can quickly modify its character.When winds move air masses, they carry their weather conditions (heat or cold, dry or moist) from the source region to a new region. When the air mass reaches a new region, it might clash with another air mass that has a different temperature and humidity. This can create a severe storm.

Air masses can affect the weather because of different air masses that are different in temperature, density, and moisture. When two different air masses meet a front forms. This is one way air masses effect our weather.

How does a battery work?
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Essentials. A battery is a device that stores chemical energy and converts it to electrical energy. The chemical reactions in a battery involve the flow of electrons from one material (electrode) to another, through an external circuit. The flow of electrons provides an electric current that can be used to do work.

1. While skiing, Sam flies down a hill and hits a jump. He has a mass of 75 kg, and he leaves the jump at 18 m/s. What is his mo
Elenna [48]

1350kgm/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Sam = 75kg

Velocity = 18m/s

Unknown:

Momentum = ?

Solution:

Momentum is the property of a moving body with respect to its mass and velocity.

Objects in motion have momentum. The more the velocity of a body, the more its momentum. Also, the more the mass of an object, the more momentum it possess.

Momentum is a function of the mass and the velocity of a body

   Momentum = mass x velocity

   Momentum = 75 x 18 = 1350kgm/s
