If a beaker of water is placed under a broiler so that the heating coil is above the beaker. It is observed that only the surfac

e layer boils. The water at the bottom of the beaker remains close to the initial temperature of the water. Which of the following statements is the most reasonable conclusion to be drawn from these observations?
a) Water is a poor conductor of heat.
b) The sample must contain impurities.
c) Water is easily heated by radiation.
d) Water exhibits anomalous thermal behavior.
e) The molecular motion in the sample is not random.

Answer:

a

Explanation:

The most reasonable conclusion of the above phenomenon is that water is a poor conductor of heat. Basically water is an insulator. The heat from surface to the bottom of the beaker will take a lot of time. Moreover, no convection current is formed so, heat might not even reach the bottom surface. Hydrogen bonding also play a vital role in determining the thermal properties of water.

hence option A is correct

Which of Newton's Three Laws Applies? Law 1, 2, or 3?
frozen [14]

Answer:

1. Newton's first law

2.Newton's second law

3.Newton's third law

Explanation:

1. Newton's first law stated, In an inertial frame of reference, an object either remains at rest or continues to move at a constant velocity, unless acted upon by a force... this is base of the concept of inertia.

2. Newton's second law stated, In an inertial frame of reference, the vector sum of the forces F on an object is equal to the mass m of that object multiplied by the acceleration a of the object: F = ma, or in easier words, F is directly proportional to a.

3. Newton's third law stated, When one body exerts a force on a second body, the second body simultaneously exerts a force equal in magnitude and opposite in direction on the first body., In this case, the Normal Are opposite with gravititional force.

A car has a momentum of -456 kg*m/s. What direction is it moving?
Solnce55 [7]

backward movement

because momentum = mass × speed

And mass must be in positive value..

so negative value is speed

which moving backward..
