B) Ice floats on top of liquid water and D) liquid is less dense than ice. The rest of the answers aren’t true because ice never sinks to the bottom of the water since ice is more dense than water.

Answer: A. Liquid water is denser than ice.

B. Ice floats on top of liquid water.

Explanation:

Water molecules are bonded by strong hydrogen bonding between the hydrogen atom and the electronegative oxygen atom.

The density of water is liquid state is more than the density of ice. Water has a property to expand when it freezes and it forms cage like structure in the ice. This results in the increase of volume and thus the density of ice is lesser than that of liquid water.

The substance with more density than water sinks in it and the substance with lesser density than water will float in water.

Thus ice being less dense than liquid water floats on top of it.

Hello!

Work is equal to negative change in PE and PE=mgh and Power is change in work/change in time

So we have 

56.1kg * 9.80m/s^2 * 16m = 8796.5 J of PE at top of run and -8796.5J of work done also

if it takes him 12s then we need to find the time gravity alone would bring him to the bottom. we get

16m=1/2at^2 and solving for t we get 
t=sqrt(32/9.80m/s^2)=1.81s

so the difference in time is 12-1.8=11.2s

now we can find avg power=work/time = 8796.5J/11.2s = 785W or 785J/s

Hope this helps! Any questions please ask! Thank you!

HELP!!! What role might electrostatic force play in spider dispersal, according to a recent study?
Marat540 [252]

The positively charged atmosphere attracts negatively charged spider silk, might electrostatic force play in spider dispersal, according to a recent study.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

The positive charge present in upper of the atmosphere and the negative charge on planet’s surface. During cloudless skies days, the air possesses a voltage of nearly around 100 volts for each and every meter from above the ground.

Ballooning spiders process within this planetary electric field. When their silk relieve their bodies then it picks up a negative charge. This oppose the similar negative charges on the surfaces on which the spiders settles and create sufficient force to lift them into the air. And spiders can hike those forces by climbing onto blades of grass,twigs, or leaves.
