Answer:
1.The calorie was originally defined as the amount of heat required at a pressure of 1 standard atmosphere to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1° Celsius. Since 1925 this calorie has been defined in terms of the joule, the definition since 1948 being that one calorie is equal to approximately 4.2 joules.
2.Boiling water at 100 degrees Celsius: 540 calories are needed to turn 1 gram (at 100 degrees Celsius) of water to steam.
Answer:
Momentum is define as the product of the mass and velocity of a body. It is measured in Kgm/s.
Explanation:
Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object. When an object or a body of mass 'm' is moving with velocity 'v', then its momentum can be determined as;
momentum (P) = mass × velocity
i.e P = m × v
= mv
It is measured in Kgm/s.
The change in momentum of a body is referred to as its impulse (Ft).
ΔP = m(v - u) = Ft
Where: P is the momentum of the object, m is its mass, v is its final velocity, u is the initial velocity, F is the force and t is the time in which the force acts.
The type of mixture that is formed when a solid is stirred into a liquid and dissolves is called suspension. The particles involved or being mixed in this type of mixture is large enough that can be seen by the naked eye without the aid of any device. A suspension mixture has a heterogeneous mixture.
Answer:
Frequency = 3.0 Hertz
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Period = 0.333 seconds
To find the frequency;
Mathematically, frequency of a wave is given by the formula;
Frequency = 1/period
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Frequency = 1/0.333
Frequency = 3.0 Hertz
Usually, it increases the solubility in water.
