Answer:
1.The calorie was originally defined as the amount of heat required at a pressure of 1 standard atmosphere to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1° Celsius. Since 1925 this calorie has been defined in terms of the joule, the definition since 1948 being that one calorie is equal to approximately 4.2 joules.
2.Boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius: 540 calories are needed to turn 1 gram (at 100 degrees Celsius) of water to steam.
Answer:
Wavelength = 3.74 m
Explanation:
In order to find wavelength in "metres", we must first convert megahertz to hertz.
1 MHz = 1 × 10⁶ Hz
80.3 Mhz = <em>x</em>
<em>x </em>= 80.3 × 1 × 10⁶ = 8.03 × 10⁷ Hz
The formula between wave speed, frequency and wavelength is:
v = fλ [where v is wave speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength]
Reorganise the equation and make λ the subject.
λ = v ÷ f
λ = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (8.03 × 10⁷)
λ = 3.74 m [rounded to 3 significant figures]
Answer:
Mars was the Roman god of War along with an agricultural guardian. He is most closely related to the god Ares of Greek Mythology. In Roman mythology, he was second in importance to Jupiter, Rome's god of the Skies and Weather. Jupiter was the king of the Roman Pantheon, husband of the queen of gods Juno. He was also Mars' father. Unlike his Greek Counterpart, Ares who was most known for his hot headed temper and associated with hate and anger, Mars was part of the Romans <em>Archaic Triad</em>, sort of like the Big Three of Greek religion. The members of said Triad included Mars, Jupiter, and Quirinus, who had no Greek equivalent. Mars was most commonly depicted in posed of valor and strength, carrying swords or shields. He wore common Roman armor, including the plumed helmet. He was pictured as a strong leader of the Roman Army. The fourth planet from the Sun was given the name Mars when it was first discovered because it was red, much like the main color the Roman god was affiliated with.
