Answer:

Water travels in a continuous path through Earth called the water cycle. The journey starts in the Earth's oceans. As the Sun heats the ocean, the water evaporates into a gas. The gas meets cooler air, and the gas changes into droplets of tiny water molecules. This process is called condensation. Little droplets of water fall back down to Earth again as precipitation. The precipitation fills up the rivers and various other things and the cycle begins all over again.

molecules of water are never destroyed - they go through various uses in a cycle of re-use. beginning in the ocean. a water molecue is attached to the wet suit of a deep sea diver. when the diver gets back on his boat, the water molecule leaves the ocean. Diver dry his suit under the sun. The water molecule is evaporated to the air. It meets up with more water molecules to form cloud. Cloud becomes rain over ground. Rain drains into stream which merges into river. River runs out to the ocean and the water cycle starts anew.

Isaac drops a rubber ball drom height of 2.0m and it bounces to a height of 1.5m. a) What fraction of it's initial energy is los
True [87]

Answer:

a)  ΔE = 25 %

b) v = 8,85 m/s

c) The energy was used against air resistance

Explanation:

In any situation total energy of a body is equal to potential energy plus

kinetic energy, then, just at the moment when Isaac dop the ball the situation is:

Ei = Ep + Ek         where     Ep = m*g*h    and  Ek = 1/2*m*v²

As v = 0  (Isaac drops the ball)

Ei = Ep  =  m*g*h    = 2*m*g

At the end (when the ball bounced to 1,5 m

E₂ = Ep₂  + Ek₂         again at that point  v =0 and

E₂ = 1,5*m*g*

Ei =  E₂ + E(lost)

E(lost) = Ei - E₂

E(lost) = 2*m*g* - 1,5*m*g      and the fraction of energy lost is

E(lost)/Ei

ΔE = (2*m*g* - 1,5*m*g )/ 2*m*g

ΔE = 0,5*m*g / 2*m*g

ΔE = 0,5/2

ΔE = 0,25      or     ΔE = 25 %

b) The speed of the ball is

Potential energy is converted in kinetic energy just when the ball is touching the ground, then

m*g*h = 1/2*m*v²

2*h*g = 1/2 *v²

v² = 4*g*h

v² = 4*2*9,8

v² = 78,4

v = 8,85 m/s

If the impact is an elastic collision, then Ek before and after the impact is the same.

A 10.0 L tank contains 0.329 kg of helium at 28.0 ∘C. The molar mass of helium is 4.00 g/mol . Part A How many moles of helium a
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

82.25 moles of He

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume (V) = 10 L

Mass of He = 0.329 Kg

Temperature (T) = 28.0 °C

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Next, we shall convert 0.329 Kg of He to g. This can be obtained as follow:

1 Kg = 1000 g

Therefore,

0.329 Kg = 0.329 Kg × 1000 g / 1 Kg

0.329 Kg = 329 g

Thus, 0.329 Kg is equivalent to 329 g.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of He in the tank. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

Mass of He = 329 g

Molar mass of He = 4 g/mol

Mole of He =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mole of He = 329 / 4

Mole of He = 82.25 moles

Therefore, there are 82.25 moles of He in the tank.

Acid mine drainage is:
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Acid mine drainage is dissolved toxic materials wash from mines into nearby lakes and streams.

Explanation:

Acid mine drainage is the flow of acidic water with pH typically between 2 and 4, and high concentrations of other dissolved toxic materials from mines into nearby lakes and streams. It mainly occurs during metal sulfide mining, when the metal sulfide ore such as pyrite (FeS2) is exposed to water and oxygen from air to produce soluble iron and sulfuric acid.

Microorganisms, especially acidophile bacteria like Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans grow by pyrite oxidation, i.e., oxidizing the Fe²⁺ in pyrite to Fe³⁺, which again react with pyrite and water to produce sulfuric acid. Then the acidic water flows into nearby water sources and reduces the pH value of water in those sources. As a result, heavy metals such as copper, lead, mercury, etc in other mineral ores also get dissolved into the water. The action of acidophile bacteria also increases the rate and degree of acid-mine drainage process.

The acid mine drainage causes water pollution and adversely affect the aquatic plants and animals. It also results in the contamination of drinking water, corrosion of infrastructures such as bridges, etc.
