Describe how freezing could be used to remove sugar from a mixture of sugar and water?

2 answers:

When the mixture (the sugar and water) is frozen, it separates. The water molecules get closer together, separating and pushing the sugar crystals to the top.<span />

Answer

Freezing can be used to separate sugar from a mixture of sugar and water if the solution is slowly cooled.

Explanation

Depending on the concentration of the sugar in the mixture, a separation can be attained if a slowly cooling process is performed. For example, if the solution is highly concentrated for example in a syrup solution, the mixture could be slowly cooled to allow the sugar to crystallize out. If the concentration is dilute but cooled slowly, pure water can crystallize first to leave a concentrated sugar solution until it freezes too.

What is the mirror formula for curved mirrors

Reika [66]

The mirror formula for curved mirrors is:
$\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}$
where
f is the focal length of the mirror
$d_o$ is the distance of the object from the mirror
$d_i$ is the distance of the image from the mirror

The sign convention that should be used in order to find the correct values is the following:
- $f$ : positive if the mirror is concave, negative if the mirror is convex
- $d_i$ : positive if the image is real (located on the same side of the object), negative if it is virtual (located on the opposite side of the mirror)

Friends Burt and Ernie stand at opposite ends of a uniform log that is floating in a lake. The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The distance the log has moved by the time Ernie reaches Bur is 1.33 m.

Explanation:

give information:

The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20.0 kg.

Burt has mass 30.0 kg; Ernie has mass 40.0 kg

Ernie has mass 40.0 kg.

to find the distance, first, we have to calculate the center of mass

X = ∑ m x /∑m

= (20 x (3/2)) + (30 x 0) + (40 x 3)/ (20+30+40)

= 150/90

= 5/3

when Ernie walk, the center of the mass is

X = (70 x 0) + (20 x (3/2))/(70 + 20)

= 30/90

= 1/3

the distance of log moved = 5/3 - 4/3 = 1.33 m

In a car with a mass of 4,000 KG is accelerating at a rate of 2m/s2 and hits a tree what force does it have

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to its mass. The formula for this law is

F=ma

=4000kg * 2m/s 2 =8000N
