To solve the problem we first need to define the nomenclature by which there is an X amount of water in our body. Let's call this a variable m, corresponding to the total mass in us and whose units are Kilograms.

Amount_{water} = m (Kg)

We understand that one millionth of this mass, a small fraction of it, is the equivalent of that of a Water Molecule.

Assuming this to have the same body of water in our body that amount should be approximately

m_{water}=10^6

Density of water molecule

\rho = 10^{-18}kg/m^3

V = \frac{m*10^6}{10^{-18}}

V = m*10^{24}m^3

A ball, with a mass of 5.9kg, is thrown directly upwards. It reaches a maximum height of 10m from the point at which it was rele
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

At the beginning, when the ball is thrown from the ground, it has only kinetic energy, which is given by

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m = 5.9 kg is the mass of the ball and v is its initial speed.

As the ball goes up, its speed decreases, so its kinetic energy decreases and converts into gravitational potential energy. When the ball reaches its maximum height, the speed has become zero, and all the kinetic energy has been converted into gravitational potential energy, given by:

U=mgh

where g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration and h = 10 m is the maximum height reached by the ball.

Since we can ignore air resistance, energy must be conserved, so the initial kinetic energy must be equal to the final potential energy of the ball, so we can write:

K=U\\\frac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

And we can solve the equation to find v, the initial speed of the ball:

v=\sqrt{2gh}=\sqrt{2(9.8 m/s^2)(10 m)}=14 m/s

What is the difference between condensation and conduction
aniked [119]

Answer:

Convection is the heat transfer due to the bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids, including molten rock. Condensation is the process by which water vapor in the air is changed into liquid water. Condensation is crucial to the water cycle because it is responsible for the formation of clouds. These clouds may produce precipitation, which is the primary route for water to return to the Earth's surface within the water cycle.

A hole is drilled in a metal plate. When the metal is raised to a higher temperature, what happens to the diameter of the hole?
zysi [14]

Answer:

The diameter of the hole increases

Explanation:

Metals expand and contract with temperature. Whenever metal is heated, it usually expands in relation to its thermal expansivity. This expansion leads to a slight increase in surface area.

Once the surface area of the metal changes, this means that the dimensions of the whole metal surface changed. As a result, the diameter of the hole drilled in the metal plate will change also. In our case, the diameter of the hole will increase.

If Scobie could drive a Jetson's flying car at a constant speed of 160.0 km/hr across oceans and space, approximately how long w
DochEvi [55]

Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

To calculate the time that takes Scobie to drive around Earth's equator we need to find the distance, which is given by the equation of a circumference:

d = 2\pi r

<em>Where:</em>

r: is the Earth's radius = 6371 km

Then, the distance is:

d = 2\pi r = 2\pi*6371 km = 40030.2 km

Now, if we divide the above distance by the speed of the car we can find the time:

t = \frac{d}{v} = \frac{40030.2 km}{160.0 km/h} = 250.2 h*\frac{1 d}{24 h} = 10 d

Therefore, Scobie will take 10 days to drive around Earth's equator.

Suzy drops a rock from the roof of her house. Mary sees the rock pass her 2.9 m tall window in 0.134 sec. From how high above th
timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

length of window h=2.9\ m

time Frame for which rock can be seen is \Delta t=0.134\ s

Suppose h is height above which rock is dropped

Time taken to cover h+2.9 is t_1

so using equation of motion

y=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where  y=displacement

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

t=time

time taken to travel h  is

h=0+0.5\times g\times (t_2)^2---2

Subtract 1 and 2 we get

2.9=0.5g(t_1^2-t_2^2)

5.8=g(t_1+t_2)(t_1-t_2))

and from equation t_1-t_2=0.134\ s

so t_1+t_2=\frac{5.8}{9.8\times 0.134}

t_1+t_2=4.416\ s

and t_1=t_2+\Delta t

so t_2+\Delta t+t_2=4.416

2t_2+0.134=4.416

t_2=0.5\times 4.282

t_2=2.141\ s

substitute the value of t_2 in equation 2

h=0.5\times 9.8\times (2.141)^2

h=22.46\ m
