Answer:

Water has the ability to release a large amount of energy during the freezing process. All of this energy is released into the air, resulting in a greater movement of air particles that will increase the air temperature. This heat will prevent air temperatures from drastically falling below 0ºC.

Explanation:

The latent heat of water occurs when the water is changing its physical state. In other words, when substances are changing their physical state, the amount of heat calculated for this change is called latent heat, and as we have already said, this heat is not related to the heat exchanges between two systems, but the change of state. physicist.

When water is changing from its liquid state to a solid state, we call latent heat latent heat from fusion (this is because fusion is the name we give to when liquid water is turning to ice). In the process of freezing the page, latent heat releases a large amount of energy into the air near the water. This energy agitates the air molecules, generating heat and preventing the air from reaching temperatures below 0ºC.

Series Circuit
A series circuit there is only one path for the electrons to flow (see image of series circuit). The main disadvantage of a series circuit is that if there is a break in the circuit the entire circuit is open and no current will flow. An example of a series would the the lights on many inexpensive Christmas trees. If one light goes out all of them will.



Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit the different parts of the electric circuit are on several different branches. There are several different paths that electrons can flow. If there is a break in one branch of the circuit electrons can still flow in other branches (see image of parallel circuit). Your home is wired in a parallel circuit so if one light bulb goes out the other will stay on.

You are standing on a large sheet of frictionless ice and holding a large rock. In order to get off the ice, you throw the rock
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

0.4778 m/s

Explanation:

To solve this question, we will make use of law of conservation of momentum.

We are given that the rock's velocity is 12 m/s at 35°. Thus, the horizontal component of this velocity is;

V_x = (12 m/s)(cos(35°)) = 9.83 m/s.

Thus, the horizontal component of the rock's momentum is;

(3.5 kg)(9.83 m/s) = 34.405 kg·m/s.

Since the person is not pushed up off the ice or down into it, his momentum will have no vertical component and so his momentum will have the same magnitude as the horizontal component of the rock's momentum.

Thus, to get the person's speed, we know that; momentum = mass x velocity

Mass of person = 72 kg and we have momentum as 34.405 kg·m/s

Thus;

34.405 = 72 x velocity

Velocity = 34.405/72

Velocity = 0.4778 m/s

What are some indicators that a chemical reaction is occurring? Check all that apply.
VikaD [51]
Hi there! When a chemical Reaction happens, the tell tale signs are as listed:
~The chemical produces bubbles
~ The Chemical emits an odor 
~ The liquid forms a solid(Precipitate) 
~ There is a change of color 
~ And last but not least a change in temperature! 

Hope this can help! Good luck!
