Answer:
Oxygen or more precisely, the O-15 isotope.
According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy is neither created nor destroyed. They are just transferred from one system to another. To obey this law, the energy of the substances inside the container must be equal to the substance added to it. The energy is in the form of heat. There can be two types of heat energy: latent heat and sensible heat. Sensible heat is energy added or removed when a substance changes in temperature. Latent heat is the energy added or removed at a constant temperature during a phase change. Since there is no mention of phase change, we assume the heat involved here is sensible heat. The equation for sensible heat is:
H = mCpΔT
where
m is the mass of the substance
Cp is the specific heat of a certain type of material or substance
ΔT is the change in temperature.
So the law of conservation of heat tells that:
Sensible heat of Z + Sensible heat of container = Sensible heat of X
Since we have no idea what these substances are, there is no way of knowing the Cp. We can't proceed with the calculations. So, we can only assume that in the duration of 15 minutes, the whole system achieves equilibrium. Therefore, the equilibrium temperature of the system is equal to 32°C. The answer is C.
This distance is known as the amplitude of the wave, and is the characteristic height of the wave, above or below the equilibrium position. Normally the symbol A is used to represent the amplitude of a wave. The SI unit of amplitude is the metre (m).
The answer is C I believe
Answer:
Turn the heater on
Explanation:
There are two main forces involved in a balloon flight
The downward force is the total weight of the balloon: the air it contains, the gas bag, the basket, the passengers, etc.
The upward force is the weight of the of the air the balloon displaces.
During level flight
,
buoyant force = weight of displaced air - total weight of balloon
If you increase the temperature of the air in the bag, the air molecules spread out and leave through the bottom of the bag.
The balloon still has the same volume, so the weight of displaced outside air stays the same.
However, the balloon has lost some hot inside air, so its total weight decreases.
The upward force is greater than the downward force, so the balloon rises.
