The very first thing that you should do when a passenger on your boat falls overboard is to throw a PFD or also known as a Personal Flotation Device. This would include anything that can help the passenger to float. But this step would differ, only if the passenger is not wearing a lifevest.

Answer:

thermoset

Explanation:

A thermoset material is a polymer that is irreversibly hardened by curing. Curing is induced by heat and cannot be undone because the polymers cross link during the process, creating permanent chemical bonds.

How do terrestrial and giant planets differ? List as many ways as you can think of.
Leni [432]

Answer: The differences between terrestrial planets and the giant planets are s follows-

  1. The inner planets namely Mercury, Venus, Earth and Mars are the terrestrial planets, whereas the outer planets namely Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune are known as the outer planets.
  2. Inner planets are composed mainly of silicate materials as well as some metals, whereas the giant planets are comprised of water (in different states) and gases such as Hydrogen and Helium.
  3. The density of the inner planets are more in comparison to the outer planets, where earth has the highest of about 5.5 gm/cm³ and Saturn has the lowest of about 0.7 gm/cm³.
  4. Due to the location of the inner planets near to the sun, they have high boiling point, whereas outer planets are much far from the sun so they have a low boiling point.

Why do stars appear so steady when viewed from the surface of moon or<br> by an astronaut in space?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Explanation:

The light from these little disks is also refracted by Earth's atmosphere, as it travels toward our eyes. That's because, in the direction of any horizon, you're looking through more atmosphere than when you look overhead. If you could see stars and planets from outer space, both would shine steadily.

The electric potential at the origin of an xy-coordinate system is 40 V. A -8.0-μC charge is brought from x = +∞ to that point.
vredina [299]

Answer:

-320 μJ.

Explanation:

Consider a point with an electrical charge of q. Assume that V is the electrical potential at the position of that charge. The electrical potential of that point charge will be equal to:

\text{Potential Energy} = q \cdot V.

Keep in mind that since both q and V might not be positive, the size of the electrical potential energy might not be positive, either.

For this point charge,

  • q = \rm -8.0\; \mu C; (that's -8.0 microjoules, which equals to \rm -8.0\times 10^{-6}\; J)
  • V = \rm 40\; V.

Hence its electrical potential energy:

\text{Potential Energy} = q\cdot V = \rm (-8.0\; \mu C) \times 40\; V = -320\; \mu J.

Why is this value negative? The electrical potential energy of a charge is equal to the work needed to bring that charge from infinitely far away all the way to its current position. Also, negative charges are attracted towards regions of high electrical potential. Bringing this \rm -8.0\; \mu C negative charge to the origin will not require any external work. Instead, this process will release 320 μJ of energy. As a result, the electrical potential energy is a negative value.
