How many birds have tested positive for West Nile virus?

1 answer:

5 0

I believe the last time the dead bird count was updated (12/16/16), there is a count of 1,350 dead birds. There is 1,350 dead birds from 33 countries have tested positive for WNV in 2016.

Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?

SashulF [63]

In almost every case in nature, adding heat to a liquid
causes the density of the liquid to decrease. That is,
when the liquid gets warmer, it expands and occupies
more space.

The one big exception to this rule is water !

Starting with a block of ice at zero°C (32°F), as the ice melts,
becomes water at zero°C, and all the way to 4°C (about 39°F),
its density increases all the way. That is, it shrinks and occupies
less volume as it goes from ice at zero°C to water at 4°C.

This sounds like an interesting but insignificant quirk ... until
you realize that if water didn't do this, then life on Earth would
be impossible !

Which of the following is not possible? A. Gas flow equals pressure gradient over resistance. B. Resistance equals pressure grad

kaheart [24]

Answer:

C. Pressure gradient equals gas flow over resistance.

Explanation:

As we know that pressure gradient is the driving force for the gas to flow from one point to other point

And we know that the flow rate is directly proportional to the driving force and it inversely depends on the resistance to flow

so we can say

Flow Rate = $\frac{Driving \: force}{Resistance}$

Flow Rate = $\frac{Pressure \: Gradient}{Resistance}$

so we can say that correct statements are as below

A. Gas flow equals pressure gradient over resistance.

B. Resistance equals pressure gradient over gas flow.

D. The amount of gas flowing in and out of the alveoli is directly proportional to the difference in pressure or pressure gradient between the external atmosphere and the alveoli.

Find the density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 500 atm if the density at the surface is 1100 kg/m^3 . Seawater ha

mixer [17]

The density of seawater at a depth where the pressure is 500 atm is $1124kg/m^3$

Explanation:

The relationship between bulk modulus and pressure is the following:

$B=\rho_0 \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta \rho}$

where

B is the bulk modulus

$\rho_0$ is the density at surface

$\Delta p$ is the variation of pressure

$\Delta \rho$ is the variation of density

In this problem, we have:

$B=2.3\cdot 10^9 N/m^2$ is the bulk modulus

$\rho_0 =1100 kg/m^3$

$\Delta p = p-p_0 = 500 atm - 1 atm = 499 atm = 5.05\cdot 10^7 Pa$ is the change in pressure with respect to the surface (the pressure at the surface is 1 atm)

Therefore, we can find the density of the water where the pressure is 500 atm as follows:

$\rho = \rho_0 + \Delta \rho = \rho_0+\frac{\rho_0 \Delta p}{B}=\rho_0 (1+\frac{\Delta p}{B})=(1100)(1+\frac{5.05\cdot 10^7}{2.3\cdot 10^9})=1124kg/m^3$
