Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?

Physics
1 answer:
SashulF [63]3 years ago
8 0

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease.  That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water ! 

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way.   That is, it shrinks and occupies
less
volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !

1. How much energy is needed to raise 1 g of water 1°C?
Serga [27]

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.

If two swimmers compete in a race, does the faster swimmer develop more power?
valkas [14]
Power is equal to energy per unit time. In this case, power is proportional to energy while is inversely proportional to time,on the other hand. Given the two swimmers exerts same amount of energy but the faster swimmer just does things in faster time, then the faster swimmer should develop more power from shorter time

What is significant about the primary colors of pigments?
ASHA 777 [7]

A. They can be mixed together to make almost any other color.

Explanation:

The most significant thing about primary colors is that they can be mixed together to form any other colors. Primary colors are red, blue and green. These are the three primary colors of light.

  • Other colors can derived from primary colors when making pigments.
  • If the the three primary colors are mixed together, white color is produced.
  • Secondary colors are the other colors produced by combining any two primary colors of light.
  • Two colors the produce white when mixed are complementary colors.

A constant force of 12N is applied for 3.0s to a body initially at rest. The final velocity of the body is 6.0ms–1. What is the
sp2606 [1]
From the question,
u = 0m {s}^{ - 1}
v = 6m {s}^{ - 1}

t = 3s
F=12N



Using Impulse, the product of the constant force, F and time t equals the product of the mass of the body and change in velocity.

Ft =m(v-u)


12(3.0)=m(6.0- \: 0)
This implies that

36.0 = 6m
m =  \frac{36.0}{6.0}
\therefore \: m = 6.0kg


You can also use the equation of linear motion,
v = u + at
6 = 0 + a(3)
6 = 3a
a =  \frac{6}{3}

a = 2 {ms}^{ - 2}
But
F=ma
12 = m(2)
12 = 2m
\frac{12}{2}  = m
\therefore \: m = 6kg
