Alice and Marge are studying the properties of matter. The girls placed some an iron nail in a beaker containing water. Iron is

a solid metal at room temperature. Iron is a shiny and malleable; it can be formed into shapes like the nails the girls used. Iron will turn reddish-brown in the presence of air or water as it rusts. Iron is a good conductor of electricity and heat. After 48 hours, the girls checked the nail in the water and compared it to the nail they left on the lab bench. Here is a photo of their results.
Based on the girls' experiment, what is a chemical property of iron?

Answer:

When substances made of iron are exposed to oxygen and moisture (water), rusting takes place. Rusting removes a layer of material from the surface and makes the substance weak. Rusting is a chemical change.

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

r₂ = 0.316 m

Explanation:

The sound level is expressed in decibels, therefore let's find the intensity for the new location

            β = 10 log \frac{I}{I_o}

let's write this expression for our case

           β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_1}{I_o}

           β₂ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_o}

           

          β₂ -β₁ = 10 ( log \frac{I_2}{I_o} - log \frac{I_1}{I_o})

          β₂ - β₁ = 10 log \frac{I_2}{I_1}

          log \frac{I_2}{I_1} = \frac{60 - 20}{10} = 3

           \frac{I_2}{I_1} = 10³

           I₂ = 10³ I₁

having the relationship between the intensities, we can use the definition of intensity which is the power per unit area

           I = P / A

           P = I A

the area is of a sphere

          A = 4π r²

           

the power of the sound does not change, so we can write it for the two points

          P =  I₁ A₁ =  I₂ A₂

          I₁ r₁² = I₂ r₂²

we substitute the ratio of intensities

          I₁ r₁² = (10³ I₁ ) r₂²

         r₁² = 10³ r₂²

         

         r₂ = r₁ / √10³

         

we calculate

          r₂ = \frac{10.0}{\sqrt{10^3} }

          r₂ = 0.316 m

An apple is whirled round in a horizontal circle on the end of a string which is tied to the stalk. It is whirled faster and fas
jek_recluse [69]

when the apple moves in a horizontal circle, the tension force in the string provides the necessary centripetal force to move in circle. the tension in the string is given as

T=mv²/r

where T = tension force in the string , m = mass of the apple

v = speed of apple , r = radius of circle.

clearly , tension force depends on the square of the speed. hence greater the speed, greater will be the tension force.

at some point , the speed becomes large enough that it makes the tension force in the string becomes greater than the tensile strength of the string. at that point , the string breaks

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

P = 2 pi R / v    period of space station

F / m = v^2 / R    centripetal force per unit of mass

So F / m = 4 pi^2 R^2 / (P^2 * R) = 4 pi^2 R / P^2

Also, F / m = 9.8 m/s^2   earth's gravitational attraction

So 9.8 = 4 pi^2 R / P^2    or    R = 9.8 P^2 / 4 * pi^2) = 195 m

Or D = 2 R = 390 m the diameter required
