False. Heat radiation from the sun cannot reach Earth, we cannot receive TV or GPS signals from satellites, and we cannot detect the light from distant stars.

A student measures the volume of a gas sample at several different temperatures. The results are tabulated as follows:Temperatur
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Check the first and the third choices:

<u><em /></u>

  • <u><em>a. The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume</em></u>
  • <u><em>b. The temperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant.</em></u>

Explanation:

Rewrite the table for better understanding:

Temperature of gas (K)     Volume of gas (L)

     298                                     4.55

     315                                      4.81

     325                                     4.96

     335                                        ?

Calculate the ratios temperature to volume with 3 significant figures:

  • 298 / 4.55 = 65.5
  • 315 / 4.81 = 65.5
  • 325 / 4.96 = 65.5

Then, those numbers show a <u><em>constant temperature-to-volume ratio</em></u>, which may be expressed in a formula as:

  • Temperature / Volume = constant, which is a directly proportional variation (the volume increases in a constant proportion to the increase of the temperature).

Hence, the correct choices are:

  • The temperature of a gas is directly proportional to its volume (first statement), and
  • The emperature-to-volume ratio of a gas is constant (third statement).

Classify the properties as extensive or intensive: mass density; color volume; total energy; temperature; melting point
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Intensive properties

Density

Color

temperature

Melting point

Extensive properties

Mass

Volume

Total Energy

Explanation:

Intensive properties:  In Physics, Intensive properties which are not depend of the amount of matter in a sample, It only depends of the type of matter, some examples of intensive properties are:

1. Density: It is a intensive property. It can explain better with a example:  the water density is 1000 kg/m3, So if we have 1 liter or 1000 liters of water  the density will be the same for the two samples.

2. Color: Solid sodium chloride is white. If you have 2 samples the first recipient  with 2 kilograms of NaCl and the second with 10 kilograms of NaCl. The color of the substance does not depend on the amount of the substance.

As was mentioned before the same theory is applied to temperature and melting point concepts.

On the other hand,

Extensive properties are properties of the matter which depend on the amount of matter that is present in the system or sample. some examples are:

1. Mass: It is a property that measures the amount of matter that an object contains. For example, 10 kilograms of solid Copper contains a higher mass than 2 kilograms of the same metal.  

2. Volume: It is a property which measures the space occupied by an object or a substance. For example, the space occupied by a glass of milk is lower than the space occupied by a bottle of milk, Then the volume of the glass of milk is lower than the volume of the bottle of milk.

3. Finally the total energy is contained in molecules and atoms that constituted systems  so, if the amount of matter increases the number of molecules too, then the total energy will increase.

I hope it helps you.

How can you justify that force is transferred to lift and throw soil using shovel?<br>​
Natali [406]

Forces are needed to lift, turn, move, open, close, push, pull, and so on. When you throw a ball, you are using force to make the ball move through the air. More than one force can act on an object at the same time.

If a 20 N object has been lifted 5 meters above the ground, how much gravitational potential energy does it have?
Andreyy89

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

Gravitational potential energy stored in an object is the work done in raising the object to a height <em>h</em> against the gravitational force acting on it.

The gravitational force acting on a body is its weight mg, where m is its mass and g, the acceleration due to gravity.

Work done by a force is equal to the product of the force and the displacement made by the point of application of the force.

GPE = mgh

The weight of the object is given as 20 J and it is raised to a height of 5 m.

GPE =(mg)*h = (20 N)*(5m)=100 J

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.
