Products such as antifreeze are composed of organic compounds that are classified as <em>alcohols</em>. (a)

Maybe those other classes of chemicals also lower the freezing temperature of water, just like alcohol does.  I don't know.  But alcohol is what's used to make anti-freeze.  I'm guessing alcohol must be cheaper, less toxic, and less corrosive inside the engines' cooling systems than any of that other stuff is.

When a car driving up a hill with constant speed: I. its kinetic energy is decreasing. II. its potential energy is constant. III
madam [21]

A car driving up a hill at a constant speed experiences no change in its kinetic energy while it's potential energy increases with increasing height, thus none of the options are correct.

Understanding the concept

Consider a car moving up the hill at a constant speed as shown in the figure below. The following forces act on the car:

  • N is the normal reaction force acting in an upward direction
  • f_s is the static friction force exerted due to friction between the road and the tires of the car
  • f_k is the rolling friction force in the direction opposing that of the  tire
  • mg is the force acting in a downward direction.
  • θ is the angle of inclination.

Here as the car is moving up the hill at a constant speed, the net force exerted on the car is zero. Also, the kinetic energy of the car will not change as its velocity is constant and the potential energy will change with increasing height. Thus, none of the given options are correct.

a uniform rod is hung at onen end and is partially submerged in water. If the density of the rod is 5/9 than of wter, find the f
34kurt

Answer:

    \frac{h_{liquid} }{ h_{body} } = 5/9

Explanation:

This is an exercise that we can solve using Archimedes' principle which states that the thrust is equal to the weight of the desalted liquid.

         B = ρ_liquid  g V_liquid

let's write the translational equilibrium condition

         B - W = 0

let's use the definition of density

        ρ_body = m / V_body

        m = ρ_body  V_body

        W = ρ_body  V_body  g

we substitute

          ρ_liquid  g  V_liquid = ρ_body  g  V_body

          \frac{\rho_{body}   }{\rho_{liquid} } } =  \frac{V_{liquid}   }{V_{body} } }

In the problem they indicate that the ratio of densities is 5/9, we write the volume of the bar

          V = A h_bogy

Thus

          \frac{V_{liquid} }{V_{1body} } = \frac{ h_{liquid} }{h_{body} }

we substitute

           5/9 = \frac{h_{liquid} }{ h_{body} }

Current can be made to flow in a stationary conductor by ............................
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

A is the answer. Im only 12 and i hope this explanation helps you.

Explanation:

Lenz's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. Faraday's Law tells us that inducing a voltage into a conductor can be done by either passing it through a magnetic field, or by moving the magnetic field past the conductor and that if this conductor is part of a closed circuit, an electric current will flow.

Describe at least four of the requirements (facts) that any model of solar system formation must include (according to the nebul
kvasek [131]
The nebular theory describes the formation of the solar system and states that the system began as a gigantic cloud of gas and dust called a nebula which eventually condensed to form the sun, planets and other objects in the solar system. The first fact speaks to the formation of the planets, where gravity pulled larger clumps of material closer to form solid rocky planets closer to the sun and gas giants further out. The second requirement is that a nearby explosion or super nova would have to disturb our nebula to trigger rotation and the eventual formation of the sun. The third requirement/fact is that the planets go around the sun in the same direction. the last fact is that the planets go around the sun within 6 degrees of a common plane. This indicates that the solar system formed from a spinning disk of materials.
