Genrish500 [490]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

"The philosopher's stone is a legendary substance, allegedly capable of turning inexpensive metals into gold. It was sometimes believed to be an elixir of life, useful for rejuvenation and possibly for achieving immortality. For a long time, it was the most sought-after goal in Western alchemy. In the view of spiritual alchemy, making the philosopher's stone would bring enlightenment upon the maker and conclude the Great Work. It is also known by several other names, such as 'materia prima.'"

A block of height 120mm is placed on top of another block with a height of 1.50 m. What is the height of the two blocks together
pav-90 [236]
We will first convert all units to meters and then solve the problem.
We are given that:
1000 mm = 1 m
120 mm = ?? meters
using cross multiplication:
120 mm = (120*1) / 1000 = 0.12 m

Now, when the two objects are placed over each other, their total height is the result of summation of both heights, therefore:
total height = 0.12 + 1.5 = 1.62 m

Based on the above calculations, the correct choice is:
<span>b) 1.62 m </span>

What is the sequence of energy transformations from the moment the ball is dropped to the moment the board is bent to its maximu
Mila [183]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Transformation of energy involves conversion of energy from one form to another for example our movement around involves the conversion of chemical energy stored in the food we eat to other forms of energy such as kinetic energy for the movement, electrical energy in the neurons for impulses and others

The ball posses gravitational potential energy since it is held at a displacement to the ground ( zero point) and when released, the gravitational potential energy is converted to kinetic energy which leads to the fall of the ball until it is at zero displacement to the earth. The board likewise when bent to its maximum extent stored elastic potential energy as a result of the partial displacement of its constituent particle provided it is  not stretch beyond its elastic limit which can lead to deformation of the board and the elastic potential energy lost.

What additions must you make to the cell for it to generate a standard emf?
xeze [42]
Answer: Addition of salt bridge

To generate a standard electromotive force, an addition of salt bridge is essential to help maintain electrical neutrality within the internal circuit and prevent the cell from rapidly running its reaction to equilibrium.
In addition, salt bridge contains potassium sulfate, an inert electrolyte where its ions will diffuse into the separate half-cells to stabilize the building charges at the electrodes and produce electricity.
