Foods that allow microorganisms to grow are called parasites. true or false

Physics
1 answer:
Bas_tet [7]3 years ago
8 0
<span>False. Foods that are improperly stored become what is known as a growth medium for microorganisms. These foods can be dangerous to humans and animals, and while they may cause an internal parasite to be able to grow, such as a tape worm, they are not in and of themselves parasites. Parasites are an organism that feeds off of, or is parasitic, and sustains life from another living organism. Such as a flea feeding off the blood of a dog or cat.</span>

Glycerin is poured into an open U-shaped tube until the height in both sides is 20cm. Ethyl alcohol is then poured into one arm
Liula [17]

Answer:

7.5 cm

Explanation:

In the figure we can see a sketch of the problem. We know that at the bottom of the U-shaped tube the pressure is equal in both branches. Defining \rho_A: Ethyl alcohol density and \rho_G: Glycerin density , we can write:

\rho_A\times g \times h_1 + \rho_G \times g \times h_2 = \rho_G \times g \times h_3

Simplifying:

\rho_A\times h_1 = \rho_G \times (h_3 - h_2) (1)

On the other hand:

h_1 + h_2 = \Delta h + h_3

Rearranging:

h_1 - \Delta h = h_3 - h_2 (2)

Replacing  (2) in (1):

\rho_A\times h_1 = \rho_G \times (h_1 - \Delta h)

Rearranging:

\frac{h_1 \times (\rho_A - \rho_G)}{- \rho_G} = \Delta h

Data:

h_1 = 20 cm; \rho_A = 0.789 \frac{g}{cm^3}; \rho_G = 1.26 \frac{g}{cm^3}

\frac{20 cm \times (0.789 - 1.26) \frac{g}{cm^3}}{- 1.26\frac{g}{cm^3}}  = \Delta h

7.5 cm =  \Delta h

An object has a mass of 30 grams and measures 3cmx2cmx1cm. What is the density of the object?
dimulka [17.4K]
The density of the object is the ratio of its mass and volume. From the given dimensions above, we determine the volume through the equation,

      V = L x W x H

Substituting,

    V = (3 cm)(2 cm)(1 cm) = 6 cm³

From the idea presented above,
    d = m/V

Substituting the known values,

   d = (30 g)/ (6 cm³) = 5 g/cm³

ANSWER: 5 g/cm³

A campground official wants to measure the distance across an irregularly-shaped lake, but can't do so directly. He picks a poin
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

149 m

Explanation:

The distances across the lake is forming a triangle.  

let the distance between the point and the left side be 'x'

and the distance between the point and the right be 'y'

and the distance across the lake be 'z' and the angle opposite to 'z' be 'Z' given:

∠Z = 83°

x = 105 m

y = 119 m

Now, applying the Law of Cosines, we get  

z² = x² + y² - 2xycos(Z)  

Substituting the values in the above equation, we get

z² = 105² + 119² - 2×105×119×cos(83°)

or

z = √22140.48

or

z = 148.796 m ≈ 149 m

The point is 149 m across the lake

When was the last volcanic eruption in the world? what is the name of the volcano?
Vitek1552 [10]
Well, to be honest, there is no official way to find out which volcano erupted recently as scientists don't have that type of equipment ready or in use at all; also there is no official way [...] because there are always eruptions occurring.

If you want the most known, "Calbuco" is your answer. It erupted in 2014 and it is found in Chile.
