Answer:

10g

Explanation:

As the Law of Conservation of Mass states that " Mass can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".

Though melting of tin isn't a chemical change, the same logic is applied here...

Hence,

The mass of tin will be 10 g itself...

Answer:

10g

Explanation:

The experiment is about melting of tin. When solid tin is melted, it retains the amount of substance it originally has and we expect it to still be 10g.

Mass is the quantity or amount of matter contained in a substance. For most chemical processes, the law of conservation of matter is always succinctly observed.

The law states that "matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction or process". Although melting is a phase change, we can adapt this law to the process. Owning to no loss of matter in the melting procedure, the amount of substance remains the same.

Therefore, we are left with about the same mass of substance we started with which is 10g.

Two boats leave the same port at the same time, with boat A traveling north at 15 knots (nautical miles per hour) and boat B tra

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The chance in distance is 25 knots

Explanation:

The distance between the two particles is given by:

$s^2 = (x_A - x_B)^2+(y_A - y_B)^2$ (1)

Since A is traveling north and B is traveling east we can say that their displacement vector are perpendicular and therefore (1) transformed as:

$s^2 = x_B^2+y_A^2$ (2)

Taking the differential with respect to time:

$\displaystyle{2s\frac{ds}{dt}= 2x_B\frac{dx_B}{dt}+2y_A\frac{dy_A}{dt}}$ (3)

where $\displaystyle{\frac{dx_B}{dt}}=v_B$ and $\displaystyle{\frac{dx_A}{dt}}=v_A$ are the respective given velocities of the boats. To find $s$ and $x_B$ we make use of the given position for A, $y_A=30$ , the Pythagoras theorem and the relation between distance and velocity for a movement with constant velocity.

$\displaystyle{y_A = v_A\cdot t\rightarrow t = \frac{y_A}{v_A}=\frac{30}{15}=2 h$

with this time, we know can now calculate the distance at which B is:

$\displaystyle{x_B = v_B\cdot t= 20 \cdot 2 = 40\ nmi$

and applying Pythagoras:

$\displaystyle{s = \sqrt{x_B^2+y_A^2}=\sqrt{30^2 + 40^2}=\sqrt{2500}=50}$

Now substituting all the values in (3) and solving for $\displaystyle{\frac{ds}{dt} }$ we get:

$\displaystyle{\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{1}{2s}(2x_B\frac{dx_B}{dt}+2y_A\frac{dy_A}{dt})}\\\displaystyle{\frac{ds}{dt} = 25 \ knots}$

Identify two structural characteristics specific to muscle tissue.

Semmy [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Muscle cells are excitable; they respond to a stimulus.meaning they can shorten and generate a pulling force. When attached between two movable objects, such as two bones, contraction of the muscles cause the bones to move.It contains protein fibers which contract to make the cell shorter.
