Answer:

B. Iron nails are attracted to the magnet

Explanation:

A qualitative observation is an observation that gives qualitative data -as opposed to quantitative-. This means that the data is non-numerical (or unquantifiable). In other words it could be said that a qualitative observation can be reached when you don't count anything. In chemistry qualitative observations can be made of properties such as color, smell, or whether or not a species is attracted to a magnet.

A ball, which has a mass of 1.25 kg, is thrown straight up from the top of a building 225 meters tall with a velocity of 52.0 m/

Elena-2011 [213]

First we will find the speed of the ball just before it will hit the floor

so in order to find the speed of the cart we will first use energy conservation

$KE_i + PE_i = KE_f + PE_f$

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 + 0$

$\frac{1}{2}(1.25)(52)^2 + 1.25(9.8)(225) = \frac{1}{2}(1.25)v_f^2$

So by solving above equation we will have

$v_f = 84.3 m/s$

now in order to find the momentum we can use

$P = mv$

$P = 1.25 \times 84.3$

$P = 105.4 kg m/s$

A silver bar 0.125 meter long is subjected to a temperature change from 200°C to 100°C. What will be the length of the bar after

Delicious77 [7]

$\Delta L= \alpha L_0 (T_f-T_i)$

= (18 x 10^-6 /°C)(0.125 m)(100° C - 200 °C)

= -0.00225 m

New length = L + ΔL
= 1.25 m + (-0.00225 m)
= 1.248

The formation of condensation on a glass of ice water causes the ice to melt faster than it would otherwise. If 8.55 g of conden

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

m = 62.14 g

Explanation:

Energy used to melt the ice is the energy released by the condensation of the water forms on the glass

so here we have

energy for the condensation of water is given as

let mass of water condensed = m

$E = m_1 L_f$

now the energy of vaporization is given as

$E = m_2 L_v$

here we know that

$L_f = 79.8 kCal/kg$

$L_v = 580 k Cal/kg$

Now we have

$8.55 \times 580 = m \times 79.8$

$m = 62.14 g$

The outer planets are similar to the planet Earth; they just happen to be farther away from the Sun.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The inner planets are called terrestrial planets due to the surfaces are solid (similar to Earth)-made up of heavy metals, either have no moons or few moons.

The outer planets are called Jovian planets or gas giants because they are encased in gas. They all have rings with plenty of moons.
