inal speed v < v0 (air resistance is not negligible). What was the sign of the work done by friction during the flight?

6 0

Answer:

(A) W fric > 0

Explanation:

According to the law of energy conservation, mechanical energy stays always constant. So if the ball come back to the same position (same potential energy) but with reduced speed (kinetic energy), then the kinetic energy has been affected by friction work created by air resistance. This work is non 0 and larger than 0. So the total of this friction work and kinetic energy after the fall = kinetic energy before the fall.

Boiling water is a common method used to sterilize water that may be contaminated. subjecting microbes to such high temperatures
GaryK [48]

Boiling water is a common method used to sterilize water that may be contaminated. subjecting microbes to such high temperatures is an example of a(n) microbicidal technique.

A substance that eliminates microorganisms (such as bacteria) is known as microbicide and the techniques that involve destruction of microbes are known as microbicidal techniques.

The pathogen biofilm was effectively destroyed by the combined microbicidal effects of hot water (50, 60, or 70 °C) and 2% citric acid. It was discovered that the combination of hot water and citric acid caused sub-lethally harmed cells.

A fairly easy way to disinfect water is to boil it. The majority of dangerous organisms, notably viruses and bacteria that cause waterborne infections, are killed when water is heated to a high temperature of 100°C. The water must boil for at least 20 minutes in order to be most effective.

Hence, water that may be polluted is frequently sterilized by boiling. Using such high temperatures to kill germs is an example of a microbicidal method.

A particular spiral galaxy can be approximated by a thin disk-like volume 62 Thousand Light Years in radius and 7 Hundred Light
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Approximate linear dimension is 2 light years.

Explanation:

Radius of the spiral galaxy r = 62000 LY

Thickness of the galaxy h = 700 LY

Volume of the galaxy = πr²h

                                   = (3.14)(62000)²(700)

                                   = (3.14)(62)²(7)(10)⁸

                                   = 84568×10⁸

                                   = 8.45\times 10^{12} (LY)³

Since galaxy contains number of stars = 1078 billion stars ≈ 1.078\times 10^{12}

Now volume covered by each star of the galaxy = \frac{\text{Total volume of the galaxy}}{\text{Number of stars}}

= \frac{8.45\times 10^{12} }{1.078\times 10^{12}}

= 7.839 Light Years

Now the linear dimension across the volume

= (\text{Average volume per star})^{\frac{1}{3}}

= (7.839)^{\frac{1}{3}}

= 1.99 LY

≈ 2 Light Years

Therefore, approximate linear dimension is 2 light years.
