Heptane and water do not mix, and heptane has a lower density (0.684 g/mL) than water (1.00 g/mL). A graduated cylinder contains

lakkis [162]

Given that the density of heptane is

$d_h=\frac{0.684g}{mL}$

The mass of heptane is

$m_h=31\text{ g}$

The density of water is

$d_w=\frac{1g}{mL}$

The mass of water is

$m_w=37\text{ g}$

The volume of heptane will be

$\begin{gathered} V_h=\frac{m_h}{d_h} \\ =\frac{31}{0.684} \\ =45.32\text{ mL} \end{gathered}$

The volume of water will be

$\begin{gathered} V_w=\frac{m_w}{d_w} \\ =\frac{37}{1} \\ =37\text{ mL} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the volume of heptane is 45.32 mL and the volume of water is 37 mL.

The total volume of liquid in the cylinder will be

$\begin{gathered} V=V_h+V_w \\ =45.32+37 \\ =82.32\text{ mL} \end{gathered}$

The total volume of liquid in the cylinder will be 82.32 mL.

Seven seconds after a brilliant flash of lightning, thunder shakes the house. How far was the lightning strike from the house? S

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

About two kilometers away

$\rm distance=2.401\ km$

Explanation:

Given:

The time gap between the light and sound to travel to the house, $t=7\ s$

Since the clouds are formed in the troposphere region of the atmosphere which extends from 8 kilometers to 12 kilometers above the earth-surface and the velocity of light is 300000 kilometers per second so it is visible almost instantly, hence we neglect the time taken by the light to travel to the house from the clouds.

∴Distance between the lightning-strike and the house:

$\rm distance=v\times t$

we have the speed of sound as: $v=343\ m.s^{-1}$

So,

$\rm distance=343\times 7$

$\rm distance=2401\ m$

$\rm distance=2.401\ km$

what is the potential energy of the ball when it gets to its maximum height just before falling back to the ground

love history [14]

Answer:

I will say that the the potential energy will be at its maximum.

Explanation:

potential energy deals with gravity and gravity deals with height, so when a object is in its maximum height it will have the maximum potential energy.
