Answer:

D.The mass and the latent heat of fusion.

Explanation:

As per the definition of latent heat of fusion we know that it is defined as the heat required to melt a given substance completely when the given substance is at its melting point point.

So here we can say that latent heat of fusion is given as

$L_f = \frac{Q}{m}$

now if the heat is required to melt the given substance when it is at its melting point then it is given as

$Q = mL_f$

so here correct answer is given as

D.The mass and the latent heat of fusion.

Answer:

Explanation:

You are not raising the temperature of the block of ice. You are making it turn phase.

H = m * hf

That's the mass of the block and the latent heat of fusion.

Why do some scientists not use controlled experiments?

Leviafan [203]

Observational studies are a prime example. Observational data is more reflective of the real environments that scientists make their inferences to than controlled experiments. The disadvantage of observational studies is that the variability is far greater. <span />

A model rocket blasts off and moves upward with an acceleration of 12 m/s2 until it reaches a height of 26 m. at that height, it

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

initial acceleration of rocket is given as

a = 12 m/s^2

h = 26 m

now we can use kinematics to find its speed

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a h$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2 * 12*26$

$v_f = 24.98 m/s$

now after this it will be under free fall

so now again using kinematics

$v_f = 0$

at maximum height

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a s$

$0 - 24.98^2 = 2 * (-9.8)* h$

$h = 31.8 m$

total height from the ground = 31.8 + 26 = 57.8 m

Part b)

now after reaching highest height it will fall to ground

So in order to find the speed we can use kinematics again

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2*9.8*57.8$

$v_f = 33.67 m/s$

Part c)

first rocket accelerate to reach height 26 meter and speed becomes 24.98 m/s

now we have

$v_f - v_i = a t$

$24.98 - 0 = 12*t_1$

$t_1 = 2.1 s$

after this it will reach to highest point and final speed becomes zero

$v_f - v_i = at$

$0 - 24.98 = -9.8 * t$

$t_2 = 2.55 s$

now from this it will fall back to ground and reach to final speed 33.67 m/s

now we have

$v_f - v_i = at$

$33.67 - 0 = 9.8 * t$

$t_3 = 3.44 s$

so total time is given as

<em>t = 3.44 + 2.55 + 2.1 = 8.1 s</em>

Which is the best desciption of a molecule?

balandron [24]

A molecule is the smallest particle in a chemical element or compound that has the chemical properties of that element or compound. Molecules are made up of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds. These bonds form as a result of the sharing or exchange of electrons among atoms.
