Answer:

Contraction of Chicago concrete walkway = 8.64 x 10⁻³ m

Explanation:

Thermal expansion or compression is given by ΔL = LαΔT

Here Length of Chicago concrete walkway, L = 18 m

         Change in temperature, ΔT = (-16 - 24) = -40 °C

         Coefficient of thermal expansion for concrete, α = 12 x 10⁻⁶ °C⁻¹

Substituting

    ΔL = LαΔT = 18 x 12 x 10⁻⁶ x (-40) = -8.64 x 10⁻³ m

Contraction of Chicago concrete walkway = 8.64 x 10⁻³ m

Answer:

The velocity will be "76.8 m/s".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Acceleration,

a = 2.4 m/s²

Time,

t = 32 seconds

By equation of motion,

⇒  v=u+at

On substituting the values, we get

⇒     =0+2.4\times 32

⇒     =0+76.8

⇒     =76.8 \ m/s

Does distance play a role in the magnetic field ?
OLga [1]
Magnetic force obeys an inverse square law with distance. ... If the distance between two magnets is halved the magnetic force between them will increase to four times the initial value.

whats an isotope? give the number of protons, neutrons, and electrons in a neutral atom of each of the following isotopes, Carbo
melamori03 [73]
Isotopes refer to different atoms of the same element (i.e. same number of protons) that differ in the number of neutrons they have (giving them different atomic weights). Atomic weight is the sum of protons and neutrons (each contributes 1 atomic mass unit).

Carbon has 6 protons by definition. If you have a carbon-13 atom (the 13 referring to its mass), the atom has 13 - 6 = 7 neutrons. Since it's neutral, protons = electrons, so there are also 6 electrons.

Sulfur has 16 protons by definition. If you have a sulfur-32 atom, the atom has 32 - 16 = 16 neutrons. Since it's neutral, protons = electrons, so there are also 16 electrons.

A beverage manufacturer wants to increase the solubility of carbon dioxide (CO2) in its carbonated drinks.
Brut [27]

D. Decreasing its temperature

Explanation:

Decreasing the temperature of the carbon dioxide gas to be dissolved in the carbonated drink will most likely increase the solubility of the gas in the drink.

Temperature has considerable effects on the solubility of gases in liquids.

  • Dissolution involves the surrounding of ions by water molecules, in this case, the carbon dioxide gas is to be surrounded by the liquid beverage medium.
  • Increasing pressure increases the rate at which gases are soluble. At high pressure, the gases are brought more in contact with the liquid medium.
  • Decreasing temperature aids gas solubility.
  • If the temperature of gases are increased,  they will not want to stay in solution as they gain a high amount of kinetic energy.
  • Therefore, it will increase their randomness and the urge to leave the solution.
  • Decrease in temperature and increase in pressure makes gas solubility to be fast.
