VMariaS [17]3 years ago
7 0

well an example, if the half-life of a 50.0 gram sample is 3 years, then in 3 years only 25 grams would remain. During the next 3 years, 12.5 grams would remain and so on.

Alexandra decides to climb Mt. Krumpett, which is 5000 m high. She determines that this will require a total of 1350 kcal of ene
Kisachek [45]
Alexandra requires a total energy of 1350 kcal for the climb
by eating proteins, fats and carbohydrates the amount of calories per gram contributed varies.
Proteins and carbohydrates - 4 calories per gram 
fats - 9 calories and gram
This means that by eating the same mass of fats and proteins/ carbohydrats the calories gained from fats is higher.
each bar contains;
<span>50 g of carbohydrates - 4 calories/g x 50 g = 200 calories
10 g of fat - 9 calories/g x 10 g = 90 calories 
40 g of protein - 4 calories/g x 40 g = 160 calories 
total amount of calories from 1 bar = 200 + 90 + 160 = 450 calories 
energy required = 1 350 000 calories 
bars required = 1 350 000/450 = 3000
alexandra should consume 3000 bars </span>

Which volcanoes are in the middle of a continent
Alina [70]

Arenal Volcano: Plate Tectonic Setting. The volcanic arc of Costa Rica, where Arenal is located, is a chain of mountains resulting from the subduction of the Cocos tectonic plate under the Caribbean Plate. Costa Rica is part of the Central American isthmus, which connects the North and South American continents.

White vinegar is a 5.0% by mass solution of acetic acid in water. If the density of white
Alex_Xolod [135]

The pH = 2.41

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

5.0% by mass solution of acetic acid

the density of white  vinegar is 1.007 g/cm3

Required

pH

Solution

Molarity of solution :

\tt M=\dfrac{\%mass\times \rho\times 10}{MW~acetic~acid}\\\\M=\dfrac{5\times 1.007\times 10}{60}\\\\M=0.839

Ka for acetic acid = 1.8 x 10⁻⁵

[H⁺] for weak acid :

\tt [H^+]=\sqrt{Ka.M}

Input the value :

\tt [H^+]=\sqrt{1.8\times 10^{-5}\times 0.839}\\\\(H^+]=0.00388=3.88\times 10^{-3}\\\\pH=3-log~3.88=2.41

Which piece of the planetary object data could be used to decide if there actually is a solid surface to land on?
zloy xaker [14]
A planetary surface is where the solid (or liquid) material of the outer crust on certain types of astronomical objects contacts the atmosphere or outer space. Planetary surfaces are found on solid objects of planetary mass, including terrestrial planets (including Earth), dwarf planets, natural satellites, planetesimals and many other small Solar System bodies (SSSBs).[1][2][3] The study of planetary surfaces is a field of planetary geology known as surface geology, but also a focus of a number of fields including planetary cartography, topography, geomorphology, atmospheric sciences, and astronomy. Land (or ground) is the term given to non-liquid planetary surfaces. The term landing is used to describe the collision of an object with a planetary surface and is usually at a velocity in which the object can remain intact and remain attached.

In differentiated bodies, the surface is where the crust meets the planetary boundary layer. Anything below this is regarded as being sub-surface or sub-marine. Most bodies more massive than super-Earths, including stars and gas giants, as well as smaller gas dwarfs, transition contiguously between phases, including gas, liquid, and solid. As such, they are generally regarded as lacking surfaces.

Planetary surfaces and surface life are of particular interest to humans as it is the primary habitat of the species, which has evolved to move over land and breathe air. Human space exploration and space colonization therefore focuses heavily on them. Humans have only directly explored the surface of Earth and the Moon. The vast distances and complexities of space makes direct exploration of even near-Earth objects dangerous and expensive. As such, all other exploration has been indirect via space probes.

Indirect observations by flyby or orbit currently provide insufficient information to confirm the composition and properties of planetary surfaces. Much of what is known is from the use of techniques such as astronomical spectroscopy and sample return. Lander spacecraft have explored the surfaces of planets Mars and Venus. Mars is the only other planet to have had its surface explored by a mobile surface probe (rover). Titan is the only non-planetary object of planetary mass to have been explored by lander. Landers have explored several smaller bodies including 433 Eros (2001), 25143 Itokawa (2005), Tempel 1 (2005), 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko (2014), 162173 Ryugu (2018) and 101955 Bennu (2020). Surface samples have been collected from the Moon (returned 1969), 25143 Itokawa (returned 2010), 162173 Ryugu and 101955 Bennu.
