Answer:

C True. they rise and fall in a circular motion

Explanation:

The movement of water waves in the sea is described by a simple harmonic movement where the water droplets, which are the material particles of the movement oscillate up and down and the wave that is the energy of the movement travels perpendicular to it.

With this let's review the claims

A False

B False

C True.

D False

Does anyone know this?!

Answer:

2 is the numerical answer.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information and formula, it is possible for us to remember that equation for the calculation of the average kinetic energy of a gas is:

$KE=\frac{3}{2} \frac{R}{N_A} T$

Whereas R is the universal gas constant, NA the Avogadro's number and T the temperature.

Which means that for the given ratio, we can obtain the value as follows:

$=\frac{\frac{3}{2} \frac{R}{N_A} T_1}{\frac{3}{2} \frac{R}{N_A} T_2} \\\\=\frac{T_1}{T_2} \\\\=\frac{500K}{250K} \\\\=2$

Regards!

What is the formula for conservation of momentum

olga55 [171]

Answer:

The general equation for conservation of momentum during a collision between n number of objects is given as: [m i ×v i a ] = [m i ×v i b ] Where m i is the mass of object i , v i a is the velocity of object i before the collision, and v i b is the velocity of object i after the collision.

Why do areas with low altitude have warmer air than areas with high altitude

barxatty [35]

Answer:

Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).

water in a cup and a kettle can have the same temperature even though the quantities are different . give reasons

jekas [21]

Answer:

The reason is because both are exposed to a virtually infinite heat sink, due to the virtually infinite mass and of the surrounding environment, compared to the sizes of either the cup or the kettle such that the equilibrium temperature, $T_{(equilibrium)}$ reached is the same for both the cup and the kettle as given by the relation;

$\infty M_{(environ)} \times c_{(environ)} \times (T_2 - T_1) = m_{1} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_3 - T_2) + m_{2} \times c_{(water)} \times (T_4 - T_2)$

Due to the large heat sink, T₂ - T₁ ≈ 0 such that the temperature of the kettle and that of the cup will both cool to the temperature of the environment
