The best method to separates mixture of salt and water is evaporation. Take a small sample of mixture in a china dish. Heat it till all water evaporate. The residual remain is salt. Josh should use this method to separate salt from water.

Answer:

evaporation

Explanation:

Evaporation is used in liquid and solid mixtures in which the liquid is evaporated. This method is effective when the liquid in the mixture easily evaporates, like water. Thus, we can conclude that evaporation would be the most efficient separation method for the student, shown in the question above, to use to separate the mixture of water and salt, because water would evaporate and salt would remain. This process is used in Brazilian salt flats to remove salt from seawater.

A long, straight metal rod has a radius of 5.75 cm and a charge per unit length of 33.3 nC/m. Find the electric field at the fol
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question;

We will make assumptions of certain values since they are not given but the process to achieve the end result will be the same thing.

We are to calculate the following task, i.e. to determine the electric field at the distances:

a)  at 4.75 cm

b)  at 20.5 cm

c) at 125.0 cm

Given that:

the charge (q) = 33.3 nC/m

= 33.3 × 10⁻⁹ c/m

radius of rod = 5.75 cm

a) from the given information, we will realize that the distance lies inside the rod. Provided that there is no charge distribution inside the rod.

Then, the electric field will be zero.

b) The electric field formula E = \dfrac{kq }{d}

E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{0.205}

E = 1461.95 N/C

c) The electric field E is calculated as:

E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{1.25}

E = 239.76 N/C

What is Elasticity? (best answer will get marked brainliest)
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

In economics, elasticity is the measurement of the percentage change of one economic variable in response to a change in another.

An elastic variable (with an absolute elasticity value greater than 1) is one which responds more than proportionally to changes in other variables. In contrast, an inelastic variable (with an absolute elasticity value less than 1) is one which changes less than proportionally in response to changes in other variables. A variable can have different values of its elasticity at different starting points: for example, the quantity of a good supplied by producers might be elastic at low prices but inelastic at higher prices, so that a rise from an initially low price might bring on a more-than-proportionate increase in quantity supplied while a rise from an initially high price might bring on a less-than-proportionate rise in quantity supplied.

Elasticity can be quantified as the ratio of the percentage change in one variable to the percentage change in another variable, when the latter variable has a causal influence on the former. A more precise definition is given in terms of differential calculus. It is a tool for measuring the responsiveness of one variable to changes in another, causative variable. Elasticity has the advantage of being a unitless ratio, independent of the type of quantities being varied. Frequently used elasticities include price elasticity of demand, price elasticity of supply, income elasticity of demand, elasticity of substitution between factors of production and elasticity of intertemporal substitution.

Elasticity is one of the most important concepts in neoclassical economic theory. It is useful in understanding the incidence of indirect taxation, marginal concepts as they relate to the theory of the firm, and distribution of wealth and different types of goods as they relate to the theory of consumer choice. Elasticity is also crucially important in any discussion of welfare distribution, in particular consumer surplus, producer surplus, or government surplus.

In empirical work an elasticity is the estimated coefficient in a linear regression equation where both the dependent variable and the independent variable are in natural logs. Elasticity is a popular tool among empiricists because it is independent of units and thus simplifies data analysis.

A major study of the price elasticity of supply and the price elasticity of demand for US products was undertaken by Joshua Levy and Trevor Pollock in the late 1960s..

Can you explain that gravity pulls us to the Earth & can you calculate weight from masses on both on Earth and other planets
schepotkina [342]
I don't actually understand what your question is, but I'll dance around the subject
for a while, and hope that you get something out of it.

-- The effect of gravity is:  There's a <em>pair</em> of forces, <em>in both directions</em>, between
every two masses.

-- The strength of the force depends on the <em>product</em> of the masses, so it doesn't matter whether there's a big one and a small one, or whether they're nearly equal. 
It's the product that counts.  Bigger product ==> stronger force, in direct proportion.

-- The strength of the forces also depends on the distance between the objects' centers.  More distance => weaker force.  Actually, (more distance)² ==> weaker force.

-- The forces are <em>equal in both directions</em>.  Your weight on Earth is exactly equal to
the Earth's weight on you.  You can prove that.  Turn your bathroom scale face down
and stand on it.  Now it's measuring the force that attracts the Earth toward you. 
If you put a little mirror down under the numbers, you'll see that it's the same as
the force that attracts you toward the Earth when the scale is right-side-up.

-- When you (or a ball) are up on the roof and step off, the force of gravity that pulls
you (or the ball) toward the Earth causes you (or the ball) to accelerate (fall) toward the Earth. 
Also, the force that attracts the Earth toward you (or the ball) causes the Earth to accelerate (fall) toward you (or the ball).
The forces are equal.  But since the Earth has more mass than you have, you accelerate toward the Earth faster than the Earth accelerates toward you.

--  This works exactly the same for every pair of masses in the universe.  Gravity
is everywhere.  You can't turn it off, and you can't shield anything from it.

-- Sometimes you'll hear about some mysterious way to "defy gravity".  It's not possible to 'defy' gravity, but since we know that it's there, we can work with it.
If we want to move something in the opposite direction from where gravity is pulling it, all we need to do is provide a force in that direction that's stronger than the force of gravity.
I know that sounds complicated, so here are a few examples of how we do it:
-- use arm-muscle force to pick a book UP off the table
-- use leg-muscle force to move your whole body UP the stairs
-- use buoyant force to LIFT a helium balloon or a hot-air balloon 
-- use the force of air resistance to LIFT an airplane.

-- The weight of 1 kilogram of mass on or near the Earth is 9.8 newtons.  (That's
about 2.205 pounds).  The same kilogram of mass has different weights on other planets. Wherever it is, we only know one of the masses ... the kilogram.  In order
to figure out what it weighs there, we need to know the mass of the planet, and
the distance between the kilogram and the center of the planet.

I hope I told you something that you were actually looking for.

Two families meet at the park at 10:00am. Each family uses a different way of transportation to get there. The Gonzalez family l
pav-90 [236]

Firstly, we need to make the times and distance equal to compare.

1hr=60mins
Gonz drove 90km in 60mins,so they would drive 45km in 30 mins dividing it by 2.
Because the Rivs had gone 30km in 30mins, Gonz were faster.

For the adverage speed, we should first add the speed of each family in mph , so 90+60, which equals 150 and divide that by 2 because there are 2 speeds so the average speed is 75mph.

P.S English is my second language so tell me if you don't understand something and I will try and explain.
