Which astronomer spent 20 years plotting the positions of the planets

As water across the surface of the earth it dissolves material as it travels. What property of water does this demonstrate?

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

B) Water is a solvent

Explanation:

Among many other chemicals, water can dissolve a variety of substances. The solvent properties of chemicals are far beyond it. That property makes water a universal solvent.

Water has one atom of oxygen and two atoms of hydrogen.

One side of the water molecule is positively charged and the other side is negatively charged. This property attracts other substances like salt and disintegrates into positive and negatively charged ions. This property is due to its physical and chemical nature.

As shown above an adhesive has been applied to contacting faces of two blocks so that the blocks interact with an adhesive force

rusak2 [61]

The magnitude of the adhesive force allows the top block to remain

attached to the bottom when the blocks and the wire are balanced.

The option that must be true is; $\mathbf{W_{bottom} = F_{adhesion}}$

Reason:

The tension exerted by the wire attached to the top block = T

Magnitude of the adhesive = $F_{adhesion}$

Weight of the top block = $W_{top}$

Weight of the bottom block = $W_{bottom}$

Given that with the exertion of the tension, the two blocks remain at rest, we have;

T = $W_{top}$ + $W_{bottom}$

The adhesive causes the bottom block to remain attached to the top block, we have;

Therefore, the magnitude of the adhesive force adds the bottom weight, to the top, weight, which gives;

The magnitude of the adhesive force = The weight of the bottom block

Therefore;

$W_{bottom}$ = $F_{adhesion}$

A 20-kilogram child is riding on a 10-kg sled over a frictionless icy surface at 8.0 meters per second. Calculate the kinetic en

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

K = 960 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a child = 20 kg

Mass of a sled = 10 kg

Speed of child on sled = 8 m/s

We need to find the kinetic energy of the sled with the child.

The total mass of child and the sled = 20 kg + 10 kg

= 30 kg

The formula for the kinetic energy of an object is given by :

$K=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 30\times (8)^2\\\\K=960\ J$

Hence, the kinetic energy of the sled with the child is 960 J.

A student drops two metallic objects into a 120-g steel container holding 150 g of water at 25°C. One object is a 206-g cube of

spayn [35]

Answer:

Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g

Explanation:

For an isolated system as given the energy lost and gains in the system will be zero therefore sum of all transfer of energy will be zero,as the temperature will also remain same

A specific heat formula is given as

Energy Change = Mass of liquid x Specific Heat Capacity x Change in temperature

Q = m×c×ΔT

Heat gain by aluminium + heat lost by copper = 0 (1)

For Aluminium:

Q = $m\times0.897\frac{J}{g.k}\times(25-5)$

Q = m x 17.94 joule

For Copper:

$Q= 206g\times0.385\frac{J}{g.k} \times(88-25)$

Q= 4996.53 Joule

from eq 1

m x 17.94 = 4996.53

$mass of aluminium = \frac{4996.53}{17.94} g$

Mass of the aluminium chunk = 278.51 g
