The right answer to this question is A. a crest that is toppling over. When a surfer rides an ocean wave on her surfboard, she is actually riding on a crest. The crest is the point on a wave with the maximum value or upward displacement within a cycle.

Answer:

A. a crest that is toppling over.

Explanation:

As we know that at the position of crest in a wave the velocity of motion of molecules is the least velocity or zero velocity

So as the surfer needs the stability he need a point of least velocity and maximum stability

So in that case he has to travel at the position of crest where he can obtain maximum stability and then his speed will be same as the speed of wave propagation in the direction of wave

so here correct answer would be

A. a crest that is toppling over.

A. How many atoms of helium gas fill a spherical balloon of diameter 29.6 cm at 19.0°C and 1.00 atm? b. What is the average kine
Korolek [52]

Answer:

a) 3.39 × 10²³ atoms

b) 6.04 × 10⁻²¹ J

c) 1349.35 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the balloon, d = 29.6 cm = 0.296 m

Temperature, T = 19.0° C = 19 + 273 = 292 K

Pressure, P = 1.00 atm = 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa

Volume of the balloon = \frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{d}{2})^3

or

Volume of the balloon = \frac{4}{3}\pi(\frac{0.296}{2})^3

or

Volume of the balloon, V = 0.0135 m³

Now,

From the relation,

PV = nRT

where,

n is the number of moles

R is the ideal gas constant = 8.314  kg⋅m²/s²⋅K⋅mol

on substituting the respective values, we get

1.013 × 10⁵ × 0.0135 = n × 8.314 × 292

or

n = 0.563

1 mol = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

Thus,

0.563 moles will have = 0.563 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms = 3.39 × 10²³ atoms

b) Average kinetic energy = \frac{3}{2}\times K_BT

where,

Boltzmann constant, K_B=1.3807\times10^{-23}J/K

Average kinetic energy = \frac{3}{2}\times1.3807\times10^{-23}\times292

or

Average kinetic energy = 6.04 × 10⁻²¹ J

c) rms speed = \frac{3RT}{m}

where, m is the molar mass of the Helium = 0.004 Kg

or

rms speed = \frac{3\times8.314\times292}{0.004}

or

rms speed = 1349.35 m/s

State pascal law and write three instrument which base unit?​
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Pascal's law (also Pascal's principle[1][2][3] or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure) is a principle in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.[4] The law was established by French mathematician Blaise Pascal in 1653 and published in 1663.[5][6]

isotopes are the same element, but have different numbers of neutrons (but still have the same number of electrons and protons), hence have a different mass number.
