Chemistry
1 answer:
BARSIC [14]3 years ago
5 0
What they breathe is compressed air. Yes normal air that every one breathes. This is compressed to 200bar and can last for approx. half an hour depending on the diver. What is exhaled is is also the same, namely carbon dioxide. 
<span>Sometimes divers mix gases to different ratios to give themselves longer dive times. This is called 'Ni-trox', which means ( Nitrogen/ Oxygen mixture). The gases exhaled are slightly different. </span>

Carbon-12 contains 6 protons and 6 neutrons. The radius of the nucleus is approximately 2.7 fm (femtometers) and the radius of t
Slav-nsk [51]

Explanation:

Let us assume that volumes is equal to spheres  volume of nucleus.

fm = femto meter = 10^{-15}

pm = pico meter = 10^{-12}

Hence, calculate the volume as follows.

          V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times r^{3}

              = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (2.7)^{3}

              = 82.4481 fm^{3} (cubic femtometers)

or,          = 82 fm^{3}

Now, we will calculate the volume of the atom as follows.

          V = \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times r^{3}

             = \frac{4}{3} \times 3.14 \times (70)^{3}

             = 1436758.4 pm^{3} (cubic picometers)

thus, we can conclude that volume of the nucleus is 82 fm^{3}  and volume of the atom is 1436758.4 pm^{3}.

How can you determine an object mechanical energy
Dafna1 [17]
Objects have mechanical energyif they are in motion and/or if they are at some position relative to a zero potential energy position (for example, a brick held at a vertical position above the ground or zero height position). A moving car possesses mechanical energydue to its motion (kineticenergy).
