Which is more dense, cold freshwater or warm seawater?

2 answers:

Cold freshwater is denser than warm seawater, because of the salinity and temperature variations. Cold water would have less salt since the solubility of the salt is lower as compared to warm water. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Answer:

There is always the difference of energy that each atoms has inside its electronic configuration and this factor of the molecules or atoms provides the basic structure or arrangement of atoms inside the given space.As, the difference inn temperature,T or the total energy possessed by these number of molecules are the deciding factor inside the given space or region.

While, the atoms or molecules of the cold freshwater are said to be low on calcium ions and that they posses the energy in more compact form inside the inter molecular bonds, leaving the medium with less energy in order to raise its temperature,T. So, the cold water has less temperature as compared to the warm seawater which posses more unsystematic-ally arranged atoms in the whole configuration of the medium.

And that is the reason that cold water are more dense or has more arranged or we can say that compact form of molecular arrangements inside there body, as compared to the warm water having less or proper arrangements of the molecules or atoms.

During World War I, the Germans had a gun called Big Bertha that was used to shell Paris. The shell had an initial speed of 2.61

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

The shell hit at a distance of 1.9 x 10² km

The time of flight of the shell was 5.3 x 10² s

Explanation:

The position of the shell is given by the vector "r":

r = (x0 + v0 * t * cos α ; y0 + v0 * t * sin α + 1/2 g t²)

where:

x0 = initial horizontal position

v0 = magnitude of the initial velocity

t = time

α = launching angle

y0 = initial vertical position

g = acceleration of gravity

When the shell hit, the vertical component (ry) of the vector position r is 0. See figure.

Then:

ry = 0 = y0 + v0 * t * sin α + 1/2 g t²

Since the gun is at the center of our system of reference, y0 and x0 = 0

0 = t (v0 sin α + 1/2 g t)

t= 0 is discarded as solution

v0 sin α + 1/2 g t = 0

t = -2v0 sin α / g

t = (-2 * 2610 m/s * sin 81.9°)/ (-9.8 m/s²) = 5.3 x 10² s. This is the time of flight of the shell until it hit.

Then, the distance at which the shell hit is:

Distance = Module of r = ( x0 + v0 * t * cos α; 0) = x0 + v0 * t * cos α

Distance = 2.61 km/s * 5.3 x 10² s * cos 81.9 = 1.9 x 10² km

A horizontal sheet of negative charge has a uniform electric field E = 3000N/C. Calculate the electric potential at a point 0.7m

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Electric potential, E = 2100 volts

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field, E = 3000 N/C

We need to find the electric potential at a point 0.7 m above the surface, d = 0.7 m

The electric potential is given by :

$V=E\times d$

$V=3000\ N/C\times 0.7\ m$

V = 2100 volts

So, the electric potential at a point 0.7 m above the surface is 2100 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Instead of moving back and forth, a conical pendulum moves in a circle at constant speed as its string traces out a cone (see fi

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

The radial acceleration is $a_c = 0.9574 m/s^2$

The horizontal Tension is $T_x = 0.3294 i \ N$

The vertical Tension is $T_y =3.3712 j \ N$

Explanation:

The diagram illustrating this is shown on the first uploaded

From the question we are told that

The length of the string is $L = 10.7 \ cm = 0.107 \ m$

The mass of the bob is $m = 0.344 \ kg$

The angle made by the string is $\theta = 5.58^o$

The centripetal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

$F = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Now From the diagram we see that this force is equivalent to

$F = Tsin \theta$ where T is the tension on the rope and v is the linear velocity

$Tsin \theta = \frac{mv^2}{r}$

Now the downward normal force acting on the bob is mathematically represented as

$Tcos \theta = mg$

$\frac{Tsin \ttheta }{Tcos \theta } = \frac{\frac{mv^2}{r} }{mg}$

=> $tan \theta = \frac{v^2}{rg}$

=> $g tan \theta = \frac{v^2}{r}$

The centripetal acceleration which the same as the radial acceleration of the bob is mathematically represented as

$a_c = \frac{v^2}{r}$

=> $a_c = gtan \theta$

substituting values

$a_c = 9.8 * tan (5.58)$

$a_c = 0.9574 m/s^2$

The horizontal component is mathematically represented as

$T_x = Tsin \theta = ma_c$

substituting value

$T_x = 0.344 * 0.9574$

$T_x = 0.3294 \ N$

The vertical component of tension is

$T_y = T \ cos \theta = mg$

substituting value

$T_ y = 0.344 * 9.8$

$T_ y = 3.2712 \ N$

The vector representation of the T in term is of the tension on the horizontal and the tension on the vertical is

$T = T_x i + T_y j$

substituting value

$T = [(0.3294) i + (3.3712)j ] \ N$

Compressions and rarefactions are characteristic of

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Of longitudinal waves

Explanation:

Depending on the direction of the oscillation, there are two types of waves:

- Transverse waves: in a transverse wave, the oscillations occur perpendicularly to the direction of propagation of the wave. Examples are electromagnetic waves.

- Longitudinal waves: in a longitudinal wave, the oscillations occur parallel to the direction of propagation of the wave. In such a wave, the oscillations are produced by alternating regions of higher density of particles, called compressions, and regions of lower density of particles, called rarefactions. Examples of longitudinal waves are sound waves.
