It is 'C', a mixture, because flour and sugar are both a compound.

Answer: c) mixture.

Explanation:

An atom is the smallest entity of any substance which consists of subatomic particles called as neutrons, protons and electrons.

An element is a pure substance which is composed of atoms of similar elements. Example: $H_2$

Mixture is formed when atoms of similar or different elements are mixed in no fixed ratio without any chemical combination.

A compound is a pure substance which is made from atoms of different elements combined together in a fixed ratio by mass. Example: $H_2O$

Two drums of the same size and same height are taken.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

i) The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A

ii) The pressure acting on the base of B will be the same as the pressure acting on the base of A

iii) The pressure on the base of drum A will be slightly less than the pressure on the base of drum B

Explanation:

The pressure acting on the base of the drum, P = h·ρ·g

Where;

h = The level of the liquid in the drum

$h_{max}$ = The height of the drums

ρ = The density of the liquid in the drum

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

i) If A is completely filled, we have $h_A$ = $h_{max}$

Therefore, $P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{liquid}$ ×g

If B is half filled, we have, $h_B$ = (1/2)· $h_{max}$

$P_B$ = (1/2) × $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{liquid}$ ×g

Therefore, $P_B$ = (1/2) × $P_A$

The pressure acting on the base of B will be half the pressure acting on the base of A

ii) If both A and B are each filled with water (the same liquid), then the pressure on their bases will be $P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{water}$ ×g = $P_B$ , the same, given that the acceleration due to gravity, g, is constant and the same in Nepal and India

iii) If A is filled with water, and B is filled with salty water, we have that, the density of salty water is slightly higher than water, therefore, we get;

$P_A$ = $h_{max}$ × $\rho_{water}$ ×g < $P_B$ =

The pressure on the base of drum A will be less than the pressure on the base of drum B.

the refractive index of cooking oil is 1.47, and the refractive index of water is 1.33. A thick layer of cooking oil is floating

VARVARA [1.3K]

When light travels from a medium with higher refractive index to a medium with lower refractive index, there is a critical angle after which all the light is reflected (so, there is no refraction).

The value of this critical angle can be derived by Snell's law, and it is equal to
$\theta_C = \arcsin ( \frac{n_2}{n_1} )$
where n2 is the refractive index of the second medium and n1 is the refractive index of the first medium.

In our problem, n1=1.47 and n2=1.33, so the critical angle is
$\theta_C = \arcsin( \frac{1.33}{1.47} )=\arcsin (0.91)=65^{\circ}$

This graph indicates that the kinetic energy of an object is increasing. What is the most reasonable explanation for this observ

soldi70 [24.7K]

B) The object's velocity doubled.

Explanation:

The graph is missing: find it in attachment.

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. It is calculated as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the velocity of the object

We notice that:

The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass
The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity

In the graph, one of the two quantities (either mass or speed) is represented on the x-axis, while the quantity on the y-axis is the kinetic energy.

First of all, we notice that the relationship is not linear: this means that the quantity on the x-axis cannot be the mass, so it must be the velocity.

Moreover, we notice that when the quantity on the x-axis increases from 1 to 2 (so, it doubles), the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4. This means that the object's velocity has doubled, therefore

B) The object's velocity doubled.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

$q=10^{-6}(e^{-4000t}-4e^{-1000t}+3)C$

Explanation:

Given that $L=1H, R=5000\Omega, \ C=0.25\times10^{-6}F, \ \ E(t)=12V$ , we use Kirchhoff's 2nd Law to determine the sum of voltage drop as:

$E(t)=\sum{Voltage \ Drop}\\\\L\frac{d^2q}{dt^2}+R\frac{dq}{dt}+\frac{1}{C}q=E(t)\\\\\\\frac{d^2q}{dt^2}+5000\frac{dq}{dt}+\frac{1}{0.25\times10^{-6}}q=12\\\\\frac{d^2q}{dt^2}+5000\frac{dq}{dt}+4000000q=12\\\\m^2+5000m+4000000=0\\\\(m+4000)(m+1000)=0\\\\m=-4000 \ or \ m=-1000\\\\q_c=c_1e^{-4000t}+c_2e^{-1000t}$

#To find the particular solution:

$Q(t)=A,\ Q\prime(t)=0,Q\prime \prime(t)=0\\\\0+0+4000000A=12\\\\A=3\times10^{-6}\\\\Q(t)=3\times10^{-6},\\\\q=q_c+Q(t)\\\\q=c_1e^{-4000t}+c_2e^{-1000t}+3\times10^{-6}\\\\q\prime=-4000c_1e^{-4000t}-1000c_2e^{-1000t}\\q\prime(0)=0\\\\-4000c_1-1000c_2=0\\c_1+c_2+3\times10^{-6}=0\\\\#solving \ simultaneously\\\\c_1=10^{-6},c_2=-4\times10^{-6}\\\\q=10^{-6}e^{-4000t}-4\times10^{-6}e^{-1000t}+3\times10^{-6}\\\\q=10^{-6}(e^{-4000t}-4e^{-1000t}+3)C$

Hence the charge at any time, t is $q=10^{-6}(e^{-4000t}-4e^{-1000t}+3)C$
