The answer is latent heat. The specific latent heat of vaporisation, L_v, of a substance is the energy input required for each kilogram to be converted from liquid to gas by evaporation. The 'specific' means per kilogram, so more generally latent heat of vaporisation is the energy taken in during the process for a given mass.

Here we are not vaporising the substance. We are in fact condensing it, the reverse process. All this means is the latent heat is released as electrostatic potential decreases in the water, as opposed to being absorbed. I hope this helps you :)

Friends Burt and Ernie stand at opposite ends of a uniform log that is floating in a lake. The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The distance the log has moved by the time Ernie reaches Bur is 1.33 m.

Explanation:

give information:

The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20.0 kg.

Burt has mass 30.0 kg; Ernie has mass 40.0 kg

Ernie has mass 40.0 kg.

to find the distance, first, we have to calculate the center of mass

X = ∑ m x /∑m

   = (20 x (3/2)) + (30 x 0) + (40 x 3)/ (20+30+40)

   = 150/90

   = 5/3

when Ernie walk, the center of the mass is

X = (70 x 0) + (20 x (3/2))/(70 + 20)

  = 30/90

  = 1/3

the distance of log moved = 5/3 - 4/3 = 1.33 m

How fast (in rpm) must a centrifuge rotate if a particle 7.3 cm from the axis of rotation is to experience an acceleration of 1.
guajiro [1.7K]

The formula we use here is:

radial acceleration = ω^2 * R <span>

110,000 * 9.81 m/s^2 = ω^2 * 0.073 m 
<span>ω^2 = 110,000 * 9.81 / 0.073
ω = 3844.76 rad/s </span></span>

<span>and since: ω = 2pi*f  --> f = ω/(2pi)</span><span>
f = 3844.76 / (2pi) = 611.91 rps = 611.91 * 60 rpm 
<span>= 36,714.77 rpm </span></span>

You stand on a straight desert road at night and observe a vehicle approaching. This vehicle is equipped with two small headligh
choli [55]

Answer:

They can be seen from a distance of 4.372 kilometers.

Explanation:

Using the Reyligh creterion for diffraction through a circular aperture we have

\frac{x}{D}=\frac{1.22\lambda }{d}

where symbol's have their usual meaning

thus applying values we get

D=\frac{dx}{1.22\lambda }

\therefore D=\frac{0.633\times 4.61\times 10^{-3}}{1.22\times 547\times 10^{-9}}\\\\D=4372.77m\\=4.372km
