The water in a lake is at 5 °C. A diver measures the pressure of the water at two different depths in the lake. He repeats the m

easurements on a different day when the water is at 15°C. The density of the water decreases when its temperature increases. Which combination of depth and temperature produces the greatest water pressure?

The combination of depth at 10 m and the temperature of 15 °C will produce the greatest water pressure.

Explanation:

The pressure in any liquid is directly proportional to the depth of the water body. This is because, the more the depth, the more the buoyant force will be acting on the liquid surface. So if the water is kept constant at 15 °C, the volume is said to increase with increase in temperature as volume is directly proportional to the temperature. The same goes for pressure, the pressure of liquid increases with increase in temperature. So the combination of depth at 10 m and the temperature of 15 °C will produce the greatest water pressure.

The mass of a single gold atom is 3.27×10-22 grams. how many gold atoms would there be in 236 milligrams of gold?
blsea [12.9K]

The amount of gold atoms could be calculated by dividing the total weight of the gold with the mass of a single gold atom. Just convert the given weight to grams then divide it with 3.27x10^-22 grams. The answer would be 7.22x10^20.

Which method determines the relative age of Earth's sedimentary layers based on their organization?
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Relative age-dating involves comparing a rock layer or rock structure with other near-by layers or structures. Using the principles of superposition and cross-cutting relationships, and structures such as unconformities, one can determine the order of geological events.
