That's good ! I never heard of that before. (Maybe because
I've never been stung by an ant.)
When an ant bites or stings, it injects a tiny amount of 'formic acid'
into your skin. Soon, the formic acid itches, burns, and stings, and
after a while, a little piece of skin dies and falls off. Some people
are seriously allergic to it, and it can make them really sick.
'Acids' and 'bases' are opposites, and one can neutralize (cancel out)
the other. Tony is putting a weak 'base' on the sting, to neutralize the
formic acid that the ant left him as a little gift.
Answer:
Both physical and chemical changes
Explanation:
From the definition of the law of conservation of mass, total mass of all the substances taking part in a chemical reaction is conserved and the number of atoms of each element in the reaction does not change when a new product is formed. Both physical and chemical changes follow the law since when the system is closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, irrespective of the state.
Moment is mass times speed
INITIAL moment before collision was 20 000 times 25 = 500 000
Explanation:
760 mmHg (millimeters of mercury) is a measure of atmospheric pressure. It represents the height of a column of mercury at which the static pressure at the bottom is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
1 atm = 760 mmHg = 101,325 Pa = 14.7 psi
Answer: They travel equal distances
Explanation:
Distance is amount of space covered from one point to another. It is measured in metres. Distance = speed x time taken
In this case,
- Since Tony and Tanya both run at the same speed: let speed = b
- Also, both run for the same amount of time: let time = c
Therefore, distance covered by Tony and Tanya = speed x time taken
Distance = b x c
Distance = bc (i.e Tony travelled a distance of bc, so also Tanya)
