Answer:

1.903 kg.

Explanation:

Energy obtained from the food, Q= 2055kCal

Half of the energy lost to evaporating water = 2055/2

= 1027.5 kCal

Latent heat of water, L = 540 kCal/kg

Q= m × L

m = 1027.5/540

= 1.903 kg.

Answer:

3.81kg

Explanation:

Given that heat lost by man Q= 2055kCal

Latent heat of water L = 540KCal/Kg

Mass of water evaporated = M

Using

Q= ML

2055= M * 540

M= 2055/540

M= 3.81kg

 <span>a) 
Capacitance = k x ε° x area / separation 
ε° = 8.854 10^-12 F/ m 
k = 2.4max 
average k = 0.78 / 1.27 * 2.4 +(1.27- 0.78) / 1.27 * 1 = 1.474 + 0.386 = 1.86 
(61.4 % separation k = 2.4 --- 38.6 % k = 1 air --- average k = 0.614 * 2.34 + 0.386 * 1 = 1.86 
area = 145 cm2 = 0.0145 m2 
separation = 1.27 cm 0.0127 m 

C = 1.86 * 8.854 10^-12 * 0.0145 / 0.0127 = 18.8 pF 
b) Q = C * V --- 18.8 * 83 = 1560.4 pC = 1.5604 nC

Acceleration is always measured in meters per second squared. Why is acceleration not measured in meters per second like speed?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration.

Explanation:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration. For example, at 1 m/s an object is travelling a distance of 1 metre every second. But a rate of acceleration is a steady increase in velocity. So at 1 m/s^2, an object's velocity is increasing by 1 m/s every second.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

Homeostasis: When bacteria or viruses that can make you ill get into your body, your lymphatic system kicks in to help maintain homeostasis.

Metabolism: The processes of making and breaking down glucose molecules are example of metabolism.(respiration and photosynthesis)

Growth:The liver continues to form new cells to replace senescent and dying ones.

Hope these examples help you.
