When you boil potatoes, will your cooking time be reduced with vigorously boiling water instead of gently boiling water? (Direct

lara [203]

Answer:

The cooling time will not be reduced.

Explanation:

The time to cook is virtually the same in both types, vigorously and gently boiling water.

The reason cooking of spaghetti calls for vigorously boiling water is to keep the pasta agitated so that they do not stick to one another.

The temperature of boiling water is the same for both vigorously boiling water and gently boiling water, therefore there will be little time difference in when the potatoes will cook when it is done with vigorously boiling water than when it is cooked with gently boiling water.

However cooking potatoes in vigorously boiling water may cause the water to dry up on time and the potatoes get burnt.

Explain the difference between the synodic period of a planet and the sidereal period. why is the synodic period often much less

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

-Synodic period is the period of celestial bodies observed on the moving planet(mostly earth)
Sideral period is the period comparing to the fixed stars without motion of the earth involved.

(I will explain the second question with an example, so it's easier to understand)
-For Sideral month for example of the moon it cactually complete one revolution in around 27.3 days.
However, since the earth moves, for us it took some more time to see the moon the same as before (fullmoon to fullmoon) again. That make synodic month of the moon to be around 29.5 days.

Explain how birds, bats, insects, airplanes, rockets, and hot air balloons achieve their flight.

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The birds, bats, insects, airplanes, rockets, and hot air balloons achieve their flight by creating high pressure below the aircraft and low pressure above it

<h3>What are living and non-living things?</h3>

They both consist of fundamentally simple building blocks. They are composed of substances or mass. Atmospheric and molecular building blocks make up the world.

In order to create high pressure below the aircraft and low pressure above it, airplanes employ specially built wings.

The wing receives sufficient airflow past it to counteract the weight and drag of the aircraft by utilizing a device to provide thrust, such as a propeller.

High pressure underneath the aircraft and low pressure above it is produced by specially constructed wings used by airplanes.

The wing receives enough airflow through it by the use of a thrust-generating device, like a propeller, to overcome the weight and drag of the aircraft.

The differences between how living and non-living things fly;

1. Moving both living and non-living objects consumes energy. Flying animals utilize their wings to create both lift and propulsion by moving them in relation to the body.

In contrast to most air vehicles, where the components that generate lift, wings, and thrust engines or propellers are distinct, the wings stay stationary.

Animal aviators like birds as well as natural parachuters like patagial as well as human inventions like aircraft as well as rockets that can power spacecraft and spaceplanes are just a few examples of the many things that can fly.

Hence, birds, bats, insects, airplanes, rockets, and hot air balloons achieve their flight by creating high pressure below the aircraft and low pressure above it

You stand17.5 m from a wall holding a baseball. You throw the baseball at the wall at an angle of 20.5∘ from the ground with an

Lelechka [254]

Answer: 8.8 m

Explanation:

The movement of the baseball to the wall is a example of parabolic motion. While the baseball aproach the wall it is affected by gravity.

In this case, because the Initial Velocity of the ball is a vecotr, it can be defined using its two directionals compounds. One, on the Y-axis and another on the X-axis. This can be related, on how a hypotenuse is the product of two legs of the triangle. Because of this, each one of this, can be know using the following equation:

Vx = Vo * cos(∅)

Vy = Vo * sin(∅)

Where Vo is the initial velocity 27.5 m/s, and ∅ is the angle which is 20.5°. So we calculate:

Vx = 27.5m/s * cos(20.5)

Vx = 27.5m/s * 0.936

Vx = 25.74m/s

Vy = 27.5m/s * sin(20.5)

Vy = 27.5m/s * sin(20.5)

Vy = 9.62m/s

Now the movement is divided on two parts, one under the effect of gravity and another one with a constant velocity.

To know how tall does the baseball hit the wall, we need to know first how much time it takes the ball to reach the wall on the X-axis. The wall is 17.5m away, we velocity on Vx that is constant we can calculate as it follow:

Time (T) = Distance (D) / Velocity (V)

Where Distance is 17.5m and our Velocity is the Vx calculated before.

T = 17.5 m / 25.74m/s

T = 0.68s

This is the time it takes the ball to reach the wall.

Know with the time, we can calculate the how tall it got on that time with the following equation:

$x = (Vo*t) + (\frac{1}{2} *a*t^{2} )$

Where Vo is the Y-Compound of the Initial Velocity.

a is the aceleration, in this case the Gravity. Which, will be negative because is oposing the movement. Gravity is equal to 9.81 $m/s^{2}$

And t is the time it takes the ball to get to the wall.

$x = (Vy*T) + (\frac{1}{2} *g*T^{2} )$

$x = ((9.62m/s)*0.68s) + (\frac{1}{2} *(9.81m/s^{2})*(0.68s)^{2} )$

$x = 8.8 m$

This is the height that the baseball touch the wall.
