Explanation:
The water cycle basically involves five steps:
- evaporation and transpiration ⇄
- condensation, ⇄
- precipitation, ⇄
- runoff, ⇄
- infiltration ⇄
So when a <u>thunderstorm </u>occurs it <em>helps in completing the precipitation process </em>by enabling the release of water vapor stored up in the atmosphere to fall on the ground as rain.
After this, the water <em>runoffs </em><em>to the surface of the ground, on plants, into rocks, rivers, and lakes.</em>
Next, the <em>Infiltration process</em> enables the water on the ground surface to enter the soil some of which becomes groundwater.
The cycle begins again as the<em> </em><em>evaporation and transpiration</em> <em>process </em>begins, where the groundwater as a result of heat from the sun is taken back into the atmosphere, while water in plants by means of transpiration goes back <em>into the atmosphere</em>.
It then <em>condenses </em>and falls back as precipitation again.
The complete ionization of KBr into its constituents
is:<span>
<span>KBr (s) --->
K+ (aq) + Br- (aq)</span></span>
<span>
During electrolysis, oxidation takes place at the anode electrode. This means
that an ion is stripped off its electron hence becoming more positive:
<span>2 Br- (aq) --->
Br2 (g) + 2e- </span></span>
We can see that Bromine gas Br2 is evolved at the anode.
<span>
<span>Meanwhile at the cathode, the reduction reaction occurs.
Which means that the electron from the anode electrode is used to make an ion
more negative:
<span>2K+ (aq) + 2e- ---> 2K (s) </span></span>
Hence, through reduction, solid potassium is deposited on the
plate.</span>
Half reactions:
<span>Anode: 2 Br- (aq) --->
Br2 (g) + 2e- </span>
<span>Cathode: 2K+ (aq) + 2e-
---> 2K (s) </span>
Answer:
The tires of a car support the weight of a stationary car. If one tire has a slow leak, the air pressure within the tire will decrease with time, the surface area between the tire and the road will increase with time, and the net force the tire exerts on the road will be constant with time.
Explanation:
when a wheel has an air leak, it means that the inside of the tire has less air, which means that there will be less air pushing the walls of the tire so that the air pressure decreases.
On the other hand, the tire begins to deform due to lack of air which increases the area of contact with the floor.
As the weight of the car remains constant and the air has a negligible mass the force towards the road will be the same
•Independent: different color sand samples
•Dependent: temperature of the sand
•Control/constant (means the same thing) : Same containers, same time in sun, same thermometer
Answer:
Resistance in circuit = 0.53 ohm (Approx.)
Explanation:
Given:
Flow of current in circuit = 15 amp
Potential difference = 8 Volts
Find:
Resistance in circuit
Computation:
In an electrical system, resistance is a stopper of a material to electric current.
Resistance in circuit = Potential difference / Flow of current in circuit
Resistance in circuit = 8 / 15
Resistance in circuit = 0.53 ohm (Approx.)
