What happens when an object with a higher density is placed in a container with a lower density liquid?

1 answer:

8 0

The object with the higher density sinks to the bottom and the lower density stays at the top.They don't mix together either because, of the type of density.

Help needed Can a body be accelerating if it is moving in circle

belka [17]

Answer:

When a body is moving on a circle it is accelerating because centripetal acceleration is always acting on it towards the center.

Please see the attached picture...

From the above diagram,we can say the acceleration is always acting on the body when it moves in a circle.

Hope this helps.......

Good luck on your assignment.......

Suppose you take a 50gram ice cube from the freezer at an initial temperature of -20°C. How much energy would it take to complet

notsponge [240]

Answer:

The amount of energy required is $152.68\times 10^{3}Joules$

Explanation:

The energy required to convert the ice to steam is the sum of:

1) Energy required to raise the temperature of the ice from -20 to 0 degree Celsius.

2) Latent heat required to convert the ice into water.

3) Energy required to raise the temperature of water from 0 degrees to 100 degrees

4) Latent heat required to convert the water at 100 degrees to steam.

The amount of energy required in each process is as under

1) $Q_1=mass\times S.heat_{ice}\times \Delta T\\\\Q_1=50\times 2.05\times 20=2050Joules$

where

$'S.heat_{ice}$ ' is specific heat of ice = $2.05J/^{o}C\cdot gm$

2) Amount of heat required in phase 2 equals

$Q_2=L.heat\times mass\\\\\therefore Q_{2}=334\times 50=16700Joules$

3) The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of water from 0 to 100 degrees centigrade equals

$Q_3=mass\times S.heat\times \Delta T\\\\Q_1=50\times 4.186\times 100=20930Joules$

where

$'S.heat_{water}$ ' is specific heat of water= $4.186J/^{o}C\cdot gm$

4) Amount of heat required in phase 4 equals

$Q_4=L.heat\times mass\\\\\therefore Q_{4}=2260\times 50=113000Joules\\\\$ $\\\\\\\\$ Thus the total heat required equals $Q=Q_{1}+Q_{2}+Q_{3}+Q_{4}\\\\Q=152.68\times 10^{3}Joules$

What type of current is produced by a battery?

padilas [110]

The positive plate is made of lead grid with a lead oxide paste coating and the negative plate is porous lead. Dilute sulphuric acid is the electrolyte. The lead acid battery produced a direct current or DC during a chemical reaction that turns lead dioxide to lead sulphate and sulphuric acid to water.
