In case of popsicle and alcohol, heat is absorbed from the surrounding.

In case of lava heat is emitted into the surrounding.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Melting of popsicle is just a change of state from solid to liquid. This is the phenomenon which occurs when the popsicle gets the heat from the surrounding and it absorbs the heat, thereby turning into liquid. So it absorbs heat from the surrounding.

The alcohol when spread on the skin evaporates into vapour. This is the phenomenon of evaporation which occurs when alcohol absorbs heat from the surrounding and thereby turning into vapour.

Similarly, when lava solidifies into solid, the change of state occurs. As lava emits heat into the surrounding, the temperature of the lava goes down, thereby changing it into solid. So it emits heat into surrounding.

Answer:

Torrey's neighbour is incorrect because increase in kinetic energy is proportional to velocity. If the velocity increases so will the object's kinetic energy. Because the mass is constant, if the velocity increases, so does the kinetic energy.

Suppose that, from measurements in a microscope, you determine that a certain layer of graphene covers an area of 2.60μm2. conve

garri49 [273]

Given that 1 micrometer or micron (um) is equivalent by definition to 1 x 10^-6 m, this means that 1 square micron (um^2) is equivalent to (1 x 10^-6)^2 m^2, or 1 x 10^-12 m^2.

(2.60 um^2) * (1 x 10^-12 m^2 / 1 um^2) = 2.60 x 10^-12 m^2
Therefore the layer of graphene covers an area of 2.60 x 10^-12 m^2.
