The answer is B
because if you compare a regular road and ice... ice is smoother and therefore has less friction

B) because a road is usually covered in rocks which increases the friction, but since its now covered in ice which is usually a smooth surface is has less friction leading to the car sliding. Also if the top of the ice has melted it may hav left behind water and hitch is a lubricant and reduces friction

In a nuclear fusion reaction two 2H atoms are combined to produce one 4He.
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a)= 0.025602u

b) = 23.848MeV

c) N = 1.546 × 10¹³

Explanation:

The reaction is

²₁H   +   ²₁H   ⇄   ⁴₂H + Q

a) The mass difference is

Δm = 2m(²₁H) - m (⁴₂H)

       = 2(2.014102u) - 4.002602u

        = 0.025602u

b) Use the Einstein mass energy relation ship

The enegy  release is the mass difference times 931.5MeV/U

E = (0.025602) (931.5)

   = 23.848MeV

c)

the number of reaction need per seconds is

N = Q/E

     = 59W/ 23.848MeV

  = \frac{59}{(23.848 \times 10^6 )(1.6 \times 10^1^9) } \\\\= 1.546 \times 10^1^3

N = 1.546 × 10¹³

A hovering mosquito is hit by a raindrop that is 50 times as massive and falling at 8.4 m/s, a typical raindrop speed. How fast
kenny6666 [7]

The final velocity after the collision is 8.2 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using the law of conservation of momentum: in fact, if we consider the system to be isolated (=no external unbalanced forces), the total momentum of the raindrop+mosquito must be conserved before and after the collision.

If the collision is perfectly inelastic, moreover, the raindrop and the mosquito stick together and travel at the same velocity v after the collision.

Mathematically:

p_i = p_f\\m_1 u_1 + m_2 u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v  

where:  

m_1 is the mass of the first mosquito

u_1 = 0 is the initial velocity of the mosquito

m_2 = 50 m_1 is the mass of the raindrop

u_2 = 8.4 m/s is the initial velocity of the raindrop

v is the final combined velocity of the raindrop+mosquito

Re-arranging the equation and substituting, we find:  

m_1 u_1 + 50 m_1 u_2 = (m_1 + 50 m_1) v\\50 m_1 u_2 = 51 m_1 v\\50 u_2 = 51 v\\v=\frac{50}{51}u_2 = \frac{50}{51}(8.4)=8.2 m/s

Len [333]

The process of digestion breaks down proteins into smaller molecules that are used to rebuild other proteins. During digestion, proteins undergo chemical changes.

<u>Option: D</u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Proteins are broken down into amino acids considered the foundational element. When issued, these tiny molecules can then be consumed into the bloodstream via the gut wall. An enzyme is a protein which can regulate biochemical response rate. An enzyme integrates a water molecule around the bond in enzymatic hydrolysis processes which allows it to split.

The bonds which hold together the amino acids are recognized as peptide bonds. A hydrolysis process comparable to that included in splitting up carbohydrates is required to break the peptide bonds within a protein. Enzymes identified as proteases are required for the protein to disintegrate.
