Gardeners understand that plants have specific pH requirements. Most plants thrive in soil with a pH that is slightly acidic, ne

utral, or slightly basic. Imagine your soil is very acidic, with a pH of 3.5. How can you raise the pH to an appropriate level so your garden plants will survive?
A) Add fertilizer.
B) Water frequently to wash away the acid.
C) Add organic matter like peat moss or humus.
D) Add a base like limestone or calcium carbonate.

Answer:

D) Add a base like limestone or calcium carbonate.

Explanation:

-To reduce the soil's pH, you need to add an alkaline or base solution.

-Calcium carbonate has an alkanizing property and forms a carbonic acid and calcium hydroxide when dissolved in water.

-The solution will reduces the soil's pH.

Suppose a car manufacturer tested its cars for front-en4 collisions by hauling them up on a crane and dropping then; from a cert
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

a

Generally from third equation of motion we have that

v^2 =  u^2 + 2a[s_i - s_f]

Here v is the final speed of the car

u is the initial speed of the car which is zero

s_i is the initial position of the car which is certain height H

s_i is the final position of the car which is zero meters (i.e the ground)

a is the acceleration due to gravity which is g

So

v^2 = 0 + 2g[H - 0]

=> v  =  \sqrt{ 2 g H}

b

H  =  9.86 \  m

Explanation:

Generally from third equation of motion we have that

v^2 =  u^2 + 2a[s_i - s_f]

Here v is the final speed of the car

u is the initial speed of the car which is zero

s_i is the initial position of the car which is certain height H

s_i is the final position of the car which is zero meters (i.e the ground)

a is the acceleration due to gravity which is g

So

v^2 = 0 + 2g[H - 0]

=> v  =  \sqrt{ 2 g H}

When v  = 50 \  km/h = \frac{50 *1000}{3600} = 13.9 \  m/s we have that

13.9  =  \sqrt{ 2 g H}

=> H  =  \frac{13.9^2}{2 *  9.8}

=> H  =  9.86 \  m

In major league baseball, the pitcher's mound is 60 feet from the batter. If a pitcher throws a 85 mph fastball, how much time e
Nostrana [21]
The given from your problem are the following:
V = 85mph (This is miles per hour)
d = 60 feet

If you notice the units do not match. Before we can do anything else, we need to make the figures match. 

In this case, we will convert 85miles per hour to feet per hour.  There are 5,280 feet in 1 mile. 
\frac{85miles }{hr} x \frac{5,280feet}{1miles} = \frac{448,800feet}{hr}

But wait! If you think about the scenario, you are looking for how long it will take for the ball to reach the bat. The most applicable unit of time to use here is second. It would be very hard to really measure a short and instantaneous event in hours. So we convert it into feet per second: 

There are 3,600 seconds in 1 hour.

\frac{448,800feet }{hour} x \frac{1hour}{3,600seconds} = \frac{448,800feet}{3,600 seconds} = 124.67ft/s

So now we have our new given as:

v = 124.67ft/s
d = 60 ft

The formula for time can be derived from the formula from velocity, which is:
velocity = \frac{distance}{time}

The formula of time will then be:
time= \frac{distance}{velocity}

All you need to do is plug in what you know and solve for what you don't know. 

time= \frac{60feet}{124.67ft/s}

time= 0.48s

The answer then is 0.48s.

If you want this in hours, just divide the value in seconds by 3,600. The answer would then be 0.00013hr. (See how small it is? This is why seconds would be a more appropriate measure.)

A piece of glass has a temperature of 72.0 degrees Celsius. The specific heat capacity of the glass is 840 J/kg/deg C. A liquid
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

741 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Given that

Initial temperature of glass, T(g) = 72° C

Specific heat capacity of glass, c(g) = 840 J/kg°C

Temperature of liquid, T(l)= 40° C

Final temperature, T(2) = 57° C

Specific heat capacity of the liquid, c(l) = ?

Using the relation

Heat gained by the liquid = Heat lost by the glass

m(l).C(l).ΔT(l) = m(g).C(g).ΔT(g)

Since their mass are the same, then

C(l)ΔT(l) = C(g)ΔT(g)

C(l) = C(g)ΔT(g) / ΔT(l)

C(l) = 840 * (72 - 57) / (57 - 40)

C(l) = 12600 / 17

C(l) = 741 J/kg°C
