What is mummification?

Physics

natita [175]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

lthough the earliest examples of mummification were accidental, with bodies being preserved because of very dry, desert conditions, it soon became religiously important in ancient Egypt and was done deliberately. Ancient Egyptians believed that a happy afterlife depended in part on careful mummification. The word mummification is formed with the suffix -fication, "a making or causing," and mummy, from the Arabic mumiyah, "embalmed body," from the Persian root mum, "wax."

Calculate the acceleration due to gravity inside earth as a function of the radial distance r from the planet's center. (hint: i
denis-greek [22]
An estimated value for gravity at a distance r from the middle of the Earth can be gotten by supposing that the Earth's density is spherically symmetric. The gravity hinge on only on the mass inside the sphere of radius r. All the assistances from outside cancel out as a fall out of the inverse-square law of gravitation. Another result is that the gravity is the same as if all the mass were concentrated at the midpoint. Therefore, the gravitational acceleration at this radius is 
g(r) = GM(r) / r² 
M(r) = mass enclosed by radius r. 
If the Earth had a continual density ρ, the mass would be M(r) = (4/3)πρr³ and the dependence of gravity on distance would be 
g(r) = (4/3)πGρr 
G = 6.674e-11 m³/kgs²

What has a larger wavelength the color iolet or the color red?explain?
horsena [70]
Red has the longer wavelength. Wavelength and frequency are inversely related, so the longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency. This lower frequency is them perceived by our eye as the color red.

There are several technological applications for the transuranium elements (Z > 92). An important one is in smoke detectors,
natima [27]

Answer:

particle emit 4 unit of mass

Explanation:

Given data

Z > 92

americium-241

neptunium-237

to find out

subatomic particle is emitted from that decay process

solution

we have given that tiny amount decay from americium 241 to  neptunium 237

so total difference is here  (241- 237 ) = 4

so its mean this particle emit 4 unit of mass.

and we say that radioactive substance americium 241 emit alpha rays during decay process

How much electrical potential energy is stored in a capacitor that has 8.0 × 10-10 C of charge on each plate and a potential dif
arsen [322]
THere is a standard relationship that gives this result where the capacity of the capacitor is used:
E=1/2* \frac{Q^2}{C}.
We know though that Q/c=V and thus we can use the relationship:
E=Q*V/2 where we have just substituted in. If we also take into account that Q=VC, we can also get that E=V^2*C/2.
We are given the charge and the potential, so the best expression to use is the middle one.
Substituting, we get that E=1/2*8*10^(-10)*20=8*10^(-9).

The answer is B
