Answer:
The correct answer is;
Change of phase.
Explanation:
When the physical state in which a substance exists in nature changes to another physical state such as a change from solid state to a liquid stat or from a liquid state to a gaseous state, the substance is said to have undergone a phase change, or phase transformation.
The state of a substance will change, depending on the surrounding temperature and the applied pressure and the energy required for the substance to change its state is known as latent heat.
The observed plateaus are periods the latent heat is absorbed to completely change the phase of the substance.
Explanation:
Single slit diffraction
Diffraction is the phenomenon of spreading out of waves as they pass through an aperture or around objects. Diffraction occurs when the size of the aperture or obstacle is of the same order of magnitude as the wavelength of the incident wave. For very small aperture sizes, the vast majority of the wave is blocked. in case of large apertures the wave passes by or through the obstacle without any significant diffraction.
Answer:
Limewater can be used to detect carbon dioxide. If carbon dioxide is bubbled through limewater then it turns from clear to cloudy/milky in colour. This is why limewater used in a simple respirometer can show that more carbon dioxide is present in exhaled air compared to inhaled air.
Explanation:
Answer:
a) 0.036 J b) 0.036J c) 0.036 d) 1.9m/s e) 0.18 m
Explanation:
Mass of the dart = 0.02kg, the spring was compressed to 6cm
Work needed to compress the spring = 1/2*k*x ^2 where k is the force constant of the spring in N/m, x is the distance it was compressed in m
Work needed to compress the spring = 0.5 * 20* 0.06^2 since 6cm = 6 / 100 = 0.06 m
Work needed to compress the spring = 0.036J
b) the total energy stored in the spring = the work done to compress the spring = 0.036J
c) kinetic energy of the dart as it leaves the the spring = elastic potential energy stored in the spring = the work done in compressing the = 0.036J using the law of conservation of energy; energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another.
d) 1/2mv^2 = 0.036
mv^2 = 0.036*2
v^2 = 0.036*2 / 0.02 = 3.6
v = √3.6 = 1.897 approx 1.9m/s
e) kinetic energy of the dart = work done against gravity to get the body to height h
Work done against gravity = potential energy conserved at height = -mgh g is negative because the motion is upward while gravity acts downward
0.036 = 0.02 * 9.81 * h
0.036 / ( 0.02*9.81) = h
h = 0.18 m
