Room temperature water is placed in an Erlenmyer flask and heated to the boiling point. After the flask is removed from the heat

source boiling ceases. Then a rubber stopper is placed in the mouth of the Erlenmyer flask to seal it from outside air. The flask is then placed in an ice bath. After a few moments the water begins to boil again. What phenomenon causes the water to boil again?
Physics

Vaselesa [24]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

When water is boiled in the flask . Some portion of it is evaporated out . Now when cork is placed on it and is placed in the ice box . It cools down , by which the pressure inside decreases .

Due to decrease of pressure , the boiling point of water also decreases . Now it can boil at lower temperature . Thus it starts boiling at lower temperature even , when placed in the ice box .

A very hard rubber ball (m = 0.5 kg) is falling vertically at 4 m/s just before it bounces on the floor. The ball rebounds back
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The force exerted by the floor is 80 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of ball = 0.5 kg

Velocity= 4 m/s

Time t = 0.05 s

When the ball rebounds then the kinetic energy is

K.E =\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Where, m = mass of ball

v = velocity of ball

Put the value into the formula

K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times0.5\times(4)^2

K.E = 4\ J

The average force exerted by the floor on the ball = change in kinetic energy over collision time

F = \dfrac{4}{0.05}

F=80\ N

Hence, The force exerted by the floor is 80 N.

True or false as heat and pressure decreases one type of metamorphic rock will transform into another type
dezoksy [38]

Answer: True

Explanation:  Metamorphism is the changing of rocks by heat and pressure. During this process, rocks change either physically and/or chemically. They change so much that they become an entirely new rock. Figure 4.22: The platy layers in this large outcrop of metamorphic rock show the effects of pressure on rocks during metamorphism.

How does the amount of acid rain in a area affect the land
Mice21 [21]
The ecological effects of acid rain are most clearly seen in aquatic environments, such as streams, lakes, and marshes where it can be harmful to fish and other wildlife. As it flows through the soil, acidic rain water can leach aluminum from soil clay particles and then flow into streams and lakes. The more acid that is introduced to the ecosystem, the more aluminum is released.

Some types of plants and animals are able to tolerate acidic waters and moderate amounts of aluminum. Others, however, are acid-sensitive and will be lost as the pH declines. Generally, the young of most species are more sensitive to environmental conditions than adults. At pH 5, most fish eggs cannot hatch. At lower pH levels, some adult fish die. Some acidic lakes have no fish. Even if a species of fish or animal can tolerate moderately acidic water, the animals or plants it eats might not. For example, frogs have a critical pH around 4, but the mayflies they eat are more sensitive and may not survive pH below 5.5.

Effects of Acid Rain on Plants and Trees:

Dead or dying trees are a common sight in areas effected by acid rain. Acid rain leaches aluminum from the soil. That aluminum may be harmful to plants as well as animals. Acid rain also removes minerals and nutrients from the soil that trees need to grow.
At high elevations, acidic fog and clouds might strip nutrients from trees’ foliage, leaving them with brown or dead leaves and needles. The trees are then less able to absorb sunlight, which makes them weak and less able to withstand freezing temperatures.
