The student quickly discovers that placing the marshmallow over the flame is more effective than heating the marshmallow on the

side of the flame. According to the information above, what type of heat transfer is present when the marshmallow is above the fire that is not present when the marshmallow is on the side of the fire

Answer:

The answer is convection.

Explanation:

There are three types of heat transfer: conduction, convection and radiation.

  • Conduction occurs when two objects touch each other and transfer heat.
  • Convection occurs when an object heats its surrounding fluid (like air, or water) and, since the hot fluids are less dense than the cold ones, they go up. So convection is a type of heat transfer that usually goes from down to up.
  • Radiation occurs when objects emanate heat in the form of electromagnetic waves that propagates in all directions.

So in this case, when the marshmallow is above the fire, it is exposed to convection, which does not occur when it is on the side of the fire.

20.0 -kg cannonball is fired from a cannon with muzzle speed of 1000m/s at an angle of 37.0° with the horizontal. A second ball
Dovator [93]

The mechanical energy for the first and the second ball is

10 ^{7}  \: joules.

Mass of the first ball = 20 kg

The initial speed at which a cannonball is fired from a cannon =1000 m/s

The angle made by the cannonball while being fired from the cannon = 37°

The maximum height reached by the first ball is,

=   \frac{ u {}^{2} _{1}sin {}^{2} θ}{2g}

=    \frac{ {1000}^{2} sin {}^{2}37°}{2 \times 9.8}

= 18478.69 \: m

The maximum height of the first cannonball is 17478.69 m.

The initial speed at which a cannonball is fired from a cannon =1000 m/s

The angle made by the cannonball while being fired from the cannon = 90 °

=   \frac{ u {}^{2} _{2}sin {}^{2} θ}{2g}

=   \frac{ 1000{}^{2}sin^{2} 90°}{2 \times 9.8}[tex] = 51020.41 \: m

For the first ball, total mechanical energy= Potential energy at maximum height + kinetic energy at the maximum height

So, the total mechanical energy is,

= mgh \: + \frac{1}{2}mv {}^{2} _{x}[/tex]

= 20 \times 9.8 \times 18478.64  \times  \frac{20}{2} (1000 \: cos37 °)

= 10 ^{7}  The potential energy at the maximum height, = m _{2}gh

= 20 \times 9.8  \times 51020.41

= 10 ^{7} \:J

Therefore, the total mechanical energy for the first and the

\:second \:  cannonball \:  is  \: 10 ^{7}  \:joules.

Summarize ocean acidification in one sentence.
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The ocean absorbs a significant portion of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activities, equivalent to about one-third of the total emissions for the past 200 years from fossil fuel combustion, cement production and land-use change (Sabine et al., 2004). Uptake of CO2 by the ocean benefits society by moderating the rate of climate change but also causes unprecedented changes to ocean chemistry, decreasing the pH of the water and leading to a suite of chemical changes collectively known as ocean acidification. Like climate change, ocean acidification is a growing global problem that will intensify with continued CO2 emissions and has the potential to change marine ecosystems and affect benefits to society.

The average pH of ocean surface waters has decreased by about 0.1 unit—from about 8.2 to 8.1—since the beginning of the industrial revolution, with model projections showing an additional 0.2-0.3 drop by the end of the century, even under optimistic scenarios (Caldeira and Wickett, 2005).1 Perhaps more important is that the rate of this change exceeds any known change in ocean chemistry for at least 800,000 years (Ridgewell and Zeebe, 2005). The major changes in ocean chemistry caused by increasing atmospheric CO2 are well understood and can be precisely calculated, despite some uncertainty resulting from biological feedback processes. However, the direct biological effects of ocean acidification are less certain

1 “Acidification” does not mean that the ocean has a pH below neutrality. The average pH of the ocean is still basic (8.1), but because the pH is decreasing, it is described as undergoing acidification.

and will vary among organisms, with some coping well and others not at all. The long-term consequences of ocean acidification for marine biota are unknown, but changes in many ecosystems and the services they provide to society appear likely based on current understanding (Raven et al., 2005).

In response to these concerns, Congress requested that the National Research Council conduct a study on ocean acidification in the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Reauthorization Act of 2006. The Committee on the Development of an Integrated Science Strategy for Ocean Acidification Monitoring, Research, and Impacts Assessment is charged with reviewing the current state of knowledge and identifying key gaps in information to help federal agencies develop a program to improve understanding and address the consequences of ocean acidification (see Box S.1 for full statement of task). Shortly after the study was underway, Congress passed another law—the Federal Ocean Acidification Research and Monitoring (FOARAM) Act of 2009—which calls for, among other things, the establishment of a federal ocean acidification program; this report is directed to the ongoing strategic planning process for such a program.

Although ocean acidification research is in its infancy, there is already growing evidence of changes in ocean chemistry and ensuing biological impacts. Time-series measurements and other field data have documented the decrease in ocean pH and other related changes in seawater chemistry (Dore et al., 2009). The absorption of anthropogenic CO2 by the oceans increases the concentration of hydrogen ions in seawater (quanti-

A block whose weight is 45.8 N rests on a horizontal table. A horizontal force of 36.6 N is applied to the block. The coefficien
Liula [17]

Answer:

Yes it will move and a= 4.19m/s^2

Explanation:

In order for the box to move it needs to overcome the maximum static friction force

Max Static Friction = μFn(normal force)

plug in givens

Max Static friction = 31.9226

Since 36.6>31.9226, the box will move

Mass= Wieght/g which is 45.8/9.8= 4.67kg

Fnet = Fapp-Fk

= 36.6-16.9918

=19.6082

=ma

Solve for a=4.19m/s^2
