Pure water is a colorless, odorless liquid with no molecules
except H₂O in it.  You can buy it at the supermarket, or make
it at home if you have the equipment and know how to use it.
At the supermarket, it's sold in gallon jugs, marked "Distilled
Water".

It turns out that pure water tastes bleah, and you would not
want to drink it for very long.

The Earth's water cycle is constantly purifying our water.
When the sun warms the ocean's surface and evaporates
water, what evaporates and rises into the atmosphere is
pure water.  The pollutants don't evaporate.  The clouds,
the rain, and the rivers are self-purifying.  Another example
of a process of nature that makes life possible here.

The junk is collecting in the oceans.  We're lucky that the oceans
have such huge volume that we haven't been able to significantly
pollute that entire layer of the Earth and kill off all sea life yet. 
But we're working on it.

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.
yan [13]

Answer:

The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Machmer Hall is 400 m North and 180 m West of Witless.

We need to calculate the distance

Using Pythagorean theorem

D = \sqrt{(d_{m})^2+(d_{w})^2}

Where, d_{m} =distance of Machmer Hall

d_{w} =distance of Witless

Put the value into the formula

D = \sqrt{(400)^2+(180)^2}

D=438.63\ m

Hence, The distance from Witless to Machmer is 438.63 m.

Which object will have the most potential energy?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:  the most potential energy ==  5 kg book, 2 m from the ground= 98 Joules

Explanation:

potential energy = m g h

m = mass

g = acceleration due gravity  = 9.8 m/s²

h = distance above  ground

1.  Pe₁ = 1 kg x 2 m x g  = 2 g

2. Pe₂ = 5 kg x 2 m x g = 10 g = 10 kg m x 9,8 m/s² = 98 Joules

3. Pe₃ = 1 kg x 0,5 m x g = 0,5 g

4. Pe₄ = 5 kg x 0.5 m x g = 2,5 g  

10 > 2,5 > 2 >0,5
