Answer:

Thermal Pollution

Explanation:

Thermal pollution is a <em>term</em> use to describe the <u>final result caused from the  water used as a coolant by power plants and/or industrial companies</u>.<em> It changes the water temperature and its quality. It is usually caused from humans or companies especially manufacturing companies - They use it for their personal needs. The end product of the water after being discarded is Thermal Pollution</em>

A 110 kg ice hockey player skates at 3.0 m/s toward a railing at the edge of the ice and then stops himself by grasping the rail
disa [49]

Answer

given,

mass of ice hockey player = 110 Kg

initial speed of the skate = 3 m/s

final speed of the skate = 0 m/s

distance of the center of mass, m = 30 cm = 0.3 m

a) Change in kinetic energy

    \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}mv_i^2

    \Delta KE = \dfrac{1}{2}m(0)^2 - \dfrac{1}{2}\times 110 \times 3^2

    \Delta KE = - 495\ J

b) Average force must he exerted on the railing

     using work energy theorem

      W = Δ KE

      F .d  = -495

      F x 0.3  = -495

      F = -1650 N

the average force exerted on the railing is equal to 1650 N.

Suppose you have a piston in a cylinder where the gas temperature is 26.0° C and has a volume of 1.75 L. What is the volume of t
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

1.62 L

Explanation:

Charle's law for ideal gases states that for a gas kept at constant pressure, the ratio between volume and temperature is constant:

\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}

where in this problem we have

V_1 = 1.75 L is the initial volume of the gas

T_1 = 26.0^{\circ}+273=299 K is the initial temperature of the gas

V_2 is the final volume of the gas

T_2 = 3.0^{\circ}+273=276 K is the final temperature

Solving the equation for V2, we find

V_2 = \frac{V_1}{T_1} T_2 = \frac{1.75 L}{299 K}(276 K)=1.62 L

As the temperature rises the solubility of all gases in water will _________
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

Decreases.

Explanation:

The rise in temperature of gas increases the kinetic energy of its molecules and they rush out of water instead of dissolving similarly as air rushes out of boiling water in form of bubbles

Suppose you have two magnets. Magnet A doesn't have its poles labeled, but Magnet B does have a clearly labeled north and south
Elina [12.6K]

Before going to answer this question first we have to know the fundamental principle of magnetism.

A magnet have two poles .The important characteristic of a magnet is that like poles will repel each other while unlike poles will attract each other.

Through this concept the question can be answered  as explained below-

A-As per first option the side of  magnet A is repelled by the south pole  of magnet B. Hence the pole of a must be south .It can't be north as it will lead to attraction.

B-The side of magnet A is repelled by the  north pole of magnet B. Hence the side of A must be  north pole.It can't be a south pole.

C-The side of magnet A is attracted by the south pole  of magnet  B .Hence the side of magnet A must be north.Hence this is right

D-The side of magnet A is attracted by the north pole of magnet B. Hence the side of A must south.It can't be north as it will lead to repulsion.

Hence the option C is right.
