HELP :). Explain how soaps lower the surface tension of the fats and oils ?

Physics

Soap is a surfactant that contains hydrophobic or water-fearing and hydrophilic or water-loving ends that  is used for cleaning dirt. These hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties are what causes the surface tension of the fats and oils to lower.

Suppose you throw a baseball downward from a roof so that it initially has 120 J of gravitational potential energy, and 10 J of
Volgvan

Answer:

B.

It will be greater than 10 J.

Explanation:

The total mechanical energy of an object is the sum of its potential energy (PE) and its kinetic energy (KE):

E = PE + KE

According to the law of conservation of energy, when there are no frictional forces on an object, its mechanical energy is conserved.

The potential energy PE is the energy due to the position of the object: the highest the object above the ground, the highest its PE.

The kinetic energy KE is the energy due to the motion of the object: the highest its speed, the largest its KE.

Here at the beginning, when it is at the top of the roof, the baseball has:

PE = 120 J

KE = 10 J

So the total energy is

E = 120 + 10 = 130 J

As the ball falls down, its potential energy decreases, since its height decreases; as a result, since the total energy must remain constant, its kinetic energy increases (as its speed increases).

Therefore, when the ball reaches the ground, its kinetic energy must be greater than 10 J.

A bus hits a bug and the bug splatters on the windshield, which force is greater?
grandymaker [24]

The forces acting on a body and the type of motion that results are given by Newton's three Laws of motion

  • The <u>force </u>of the bus is <u>the same</u> as reactive force of the bug

Reason:

According to Newton's third Law of motion, given that the bug collides

with the bus, the force with which the bus hits the bug is equal to the

reactive force of the bug on the on the bus

According to Newton's second Law of motion, force is equal to the rate of

change of the momentum produced

The impulse of the force of the bus on the bug is given as follows;

F·Δt = m·(v₂ - v₁)

Given that the force of the bus is large, the change in momentum, m·(v₂ - v₁),

is also large such that the parts of the bug are split by the rapid change in

velocity, and the bug splatters on the windshield, and is then carried along

on the trip,

The equally large reactive force of the bug, is such that the bug splatters

due its magnitude

Therefore, the correct response is that <u>the forces are the same</u>

Two large non-conducting plates of surface area A = 0.25 m 2 carry equal but opposite charges What is the energy density of the
Stells [14]

Answer:

5.1*10^3 J/m^3

Explanation:

Using E = q/A*eo

And

q =75*10^-6 C

A = 0.25

eo = 8.85*10^-12

Energy density = 1/2*eo*(E^2) = 1/2*eo*(q/A*eo)^2 = [q^2] / [2*(A^2)*eo]

= [(75*10^-6)^2] / [2*(0.25)^2*8.85*10^-12]

= 5.1*10^3 J/m^3
