A student measures the mass 8cm3 block of brown sugar to be 12.9g. what is the density of the brown sugar

Answer:

$1.6\ g/cm^{3}$

Explanation:

Density is defined as mass per unit volume of an object expressed as $\rho=\frac {m}{v}$ where $\rho$ is the density, m is the mass of sugar and v is the volume of the sugar. Considering that the volume is given as 8cm3 for sugar then we substitute this for v and mass of 12.9 g we substitute for g then the density will be

$\rho=\frac {12.9 g}{8 cm3}=1.6125\ g/cm^{3}\approx 1.6\ g/cm^{3}$

What’s The Answer, To The Question In The Photo

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is the third option: The kinetic energy of the water molecules decreases.

Explanation:

Temperature is, in depth, a statistical value; kind of an average of the particles movement in any physical system (such as a glass filled with water). Kinetic energy, for sure, is the energy resulting from movement (technically depending on mass and velocity of a system; in other words, the faster something moves, the greater its kinetic energy.

Since temperature is related to the total average random movement in a system, and so is the kinetic energy (related to movement through velocity), as the thermometer measures less temperature, that would mean that the particles (in this case: water particles) are moving slowly, so that: the slower something moves, the lower its kinetic energy.

In summary: temperature tells about how fast are moving and colliding the particles within a system, and since it is directly proportional to the amount of movement, it can be related (also directly proportional) to the kinectic energy.

Sound waves cannot travel in

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The answer is D. A Vacumn

Explanation:

Sound cannot travel through a vacuum. A vacuum is an area without any air, like space. So sound cannot travel through space because there is no matter for the vibrations to work in.

Light of wavelength 600 nm passes though two slits separated by 0.22mm and is observed on a screen 1.1m behind the slits. The lo

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

$y(m=1)=\frac{(1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=3*10^{-6}m\\\\y(m=1)=\frac{(-1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=-3*10^{-6}m$

Explanation:

We have to take into account the expression for the position of the fringes

$dsen\theta=m\lambda\\y=\frac{m\lambda D}{d}$

where m is the number of the maximum, d is the separation of the slits, D is the distance to the screen.

(a) By replacing we obtain

$y(m=1)=\frac{(1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=3*10^{-6}m\\\\y(m=1)=\frac{(-1)(600*10^{-9}m)(1.1m)}{0.22m}=-3*10^{-6}m$

(b) more information is required to solve this point. Please complete the information.
