PLEASE ANSWER FAST!! A scientist put red blood cells in water that contained salt. Over time, the red blood cells burst. What is
Nitella [24]
It is most likely true that there was a lower concentration of salt in the water than in the cells because when blood cells are put in a hypotonic solution such as pure water, the little to no salt concentration in the water causes the cells to swell and burst. This would occur because the water would try to dilute the solution inside of the blood cell and which would, therefore, cause it to burst. Hope this helps!

An object is hanging by a string from the ceiling of an elevator. The elevator is moving upward with a constant speed. What is t
xeze [42]

Answer:

The magnitude of the tension in he string is equal to the magnitude of the weight of the object.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's 1st law, An object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

In here, the elevator is moving with a constant speed. So the object must have the equal constant speed. Which means, it has a uniform motion. According to Newton's 1st law, the total unbalanced force on the object must be zero . As we know, there are only two forces are on the object and they are,

The tension in string(T)   ,   The weight of the object(W) .

                                  ∴ F    =   0

                                 T  -  W  =   0

So to balanced those forces, the magnitude of the tension in the string must be equal to the magnitude of the weight of  the object.

A 40-kg box is being pushed along a horizontal smooth surface. The pushing force is 15 n directed at an angle of 15° below the
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Acceleration of the crate is 0.362 m/s^2.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the box, m = 40 kg

Applied force, F = 15 N

Angle at which the force is applied, (\theta) = 15°

We have to find the magnitude of the acceleration.

Let the acceleration be "a".

FBD is attached with where we can see the horizontal and vertical component of force.

⇒ F_x=Fcos(\theta)          and             ⇒ F_y=Fsin (\theta)

⇒ F_x=15cos(15)                           ⇒ F_y=15sin (15)

⇒ Applying concept of  forces.

⇒ \sum F_x=F_n_e_t =F-f

⇒ F_n_e_t =F-f

⇒ ma =F-f       <em>  ...Newtons second law Fnet = ma</em>

⇒ a =\frac{F-f}{m}              

⇒ Plugging the values.

⇒ a =\frac{15cos(15)-0}{40}     <em>...f is the friction which is zero here.</em>

⇒ a =\frac{14.48}{40}

⇒ a=0.362\ ms^-^2

Magnitude of the acceleration of the crate is 0.362 m/s^2.
