Why we cannt cook food on high attitude (like mountain where exist low temperatures )?

1 answer:

4 0

Cooking takes longer because water and other liquids evaporate faster and boil at lower temperatures.At sea level water boils at 212degrees Fahrenheit but at an altitude of 7,500 feet, it boils at about 198 degrees. Foods that are prepared by boiling or simmering will cook at a lower temperature and it will take longer to cook them. Hope this helps!! ; )

Janelle wants to buy some strings of decorative lights for her home. She is trying to decide between two strings of lights that

inysia [295]

If she has a choice and the wiring details are stated on the packaging,
then Janelle should look for lights that are wired in parallel within the
string, and she should avoid lights that are wired in series within the string.

If a single light in a parallel string fails, then only that one goes out.
The rest of the lights in the string continue to shimmer and glimmer.

If a single light in a series string fails, then ALL of the lights in that string
go out, and it's a substantial engineering challenge to determine which light
actually failed.

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 9.7-mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.664 and 0.3

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

844°C

Explanation:

The problem can be easily solve by using Fick's law and the Diffusivity or diffusion coefficient.

We know that Fick's law is given by,

$J = - D \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}$

Where $\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}$ is the concentration of gradient

D is the diffusivity coefficient

and J is the flux of atoms.

In the other hand we have, that

$D= D_0 e^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}$

Where $D_0$ is the proportionality constant,

R is the gas constant, T the temperature and $E_d$ is the activation energy.

Replacing the value of diffusivity coefficient in Fick's law we have,

$J = -D_0 ^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}$

Rearrange the equation to get the value of temperature,

$T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}$

We have all the values in our equation.

$\Delta c = 0.664-0.339 = 0.325 C. cm^{-1}$

$\Delta x = 9.7*10^{-3}m$

$E_d = 82000J$

$D_0 = 6.5*10^{-7}m^2/s$

$J = 3.2*10^{-9}m^2/s$

$R= 8.31Jmol^{-1}K$

Substituting,

$T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}$

$T=-\frac{-82000}{(8.31)ln(\frac{3.2*10^{-9}(9.7*10^{-3})}{6.5*10^{-7} (0.325)})}$

$T=1118.07K=844\°C$

An electron in a cathode-ray beam passes between 2.5cm long parallel-plate electrodes that are 6.0mm apart. A 2.1mT, 2.5-cm-wide

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

(a). The speed of electron is $1.56\times10^{7}\ m/s$ .

(b). The radius of electron is $4.2\ cm$

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 2.5 cm

Distance = 6.0 mm

Magnetic field = 2.1 T

Potential difference = 700 V

(a). We need to calculate the electron's speed

Using formula of speed

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2eV}{m}}$

Put the value into the formula

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times700}{9.1\times10^{-31}}}$

$v=15689290.81\ m/s$

$v=1.56\times10^{7}\ m/s$

(b). We need to calculate the radius of electron

Using formula of centripetal force

$\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=qvB$

$r=\dfrac{mv}{qB}$

Where,

m = mass of electron

v = speed of electron

r = radius

q = charge of electron

B = magnetic field

Put the value into the formula

$r=\dfrac{9.1\times10^{-31}\times1.56\times10^{7}}{1.6\times10^{-19}\times2.1\times10^{-3}}$

$r=0.042\ m$

$r=4.2\ cm$

Hence, (a). The speed of electron is $1.56\times10^{7}\ m/s$ .

(b). The radius of electron is 4.2 cm

Does fire have ways to protect itself from changes in the environment

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

I think no because the critical properties distinguishing life is adaptation to changing environment and self replication of the information encoding the life process. Fire does not change its process to adapt to its environment, e.g. moving toward more fuel or storing and conserving fuel when it is in short supply.

Hope this help you!:)

How long will a bus take to travel 150 km at an average speed of 40 km h?

yan [13]

225 mins long will a bus take to travel 150 km at an average speed of 40 km h

Since the average speed is 40km/h it means

40 km can be travelled by it in 1 hour

1 km can be travelled by it in 1/40 hour

So 150km can be travelled by it in 150/40 hours or 225 mins.

By formula time=distance/speed=150/40=3.75hours

Speed = Distance/Time – This tells us how slow or fast an object moves. It describes the distance travelled divided by the time taken to cover the distance. Time = Distance / Speed, as the speed increases the time taken will decrease and vice versa.
