Icy is slippery because when your hands make contact with the ice cube the heat from your hand already starts to melt the ice, and when it ice melts it becomes water and water isn't the easiest thing in the world to have a grasp on...

Because ice is less dense than liquid water,
its melting point is lowered under high pressures.

A long standing theory says that this is what causes ice to be slippery:

As you step on it, the pressure of your weight causes the top layer to my into water.

How far would a horse that rides at 8.1 m/s travel and 8.5 minutes
Xelga [282]
V = S/t

The time is in minutes, it needs to be converted to seconds, because the Velocity 8.1meters/second.

1 min -------- 60 secs
8.5 min -------- x secs
-> x = 8.5 . 60
-> x = 510secs

-> 8.1 = S/510
-> 510 x 8.1 = S
-> S = 4131 meters

Which of these would have particles with the highest kinetic energy? Ice Water Water Vapor
umka2103 [35]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The correct answer is water vapor.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • In evaporation of water, particles with high kinetic energy tend to leave the water surface.
  • Because high kinetic energy molecules move faster than others breaking bonds with other molecules.
  • And escape the water to air in form of vapors.
  • While the ice water contain molecules with low kinetic energy.

What frequency is received by a stationary mouse just before being dispatched by a hawk flying at it at 24.7 m/s and emitting a
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

   f' = 3665.51 Hz

Explanation:

given,

speed of the hawk = 24.7 m/s

frequency of screech emitted by the hawk = 3400 Hz

speed of sound = 331 m/s

By Doppler's effect

f' = (\dfrac{v}{v-v_s}})f

f' is the frequency received by the mouse

v is the speed of the sound

v_s is the speed of the hawk

now,

f' = \dfrac{341}{341-24.7}}\times 3400

   f' = 1.078 x 3400

   f' = 3665.51 Hz

The frequency received by the stationary mouse is equal to 3665.51 Hz
