<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>Warm water temperature </u><u>lowers the dissolved oxygen</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Water temperature is one of the most important characteristics of an aquatic system. It affects the solubility of oxygen to a great extent. The solubility of oxygen decreases as water temperature increases.The reason for this inverse relationship between dissolved oxygen and temperature is that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is an equilibrium phenomenon therefore cold water can hold more dissolved oxygen than warm water.

<h3>Answer</h3>

At a high temperature above 20° oxygen solubility starts to decrease.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Oxygen, O2 is a very essential component of water as we can see in its chemical formula h2O.

The solubility of oxygen decreases as temperature increases. This means that warmer water will have less dissolved oxygen than does cooler water.

<h3>Other factors that affects oxygen solubility in water</h3>

Salt levels

higher the salt levels in water, lower will be oxygen in it.

Pressure

Water at lower altitudes can hold more dissolved oxygen than water at higher altitudes because dissolved oxygen will increase as pressure increases.

significant figures are digits read directly from measuring instrument plus one more digit, which is ______ by the observer

Kay [80]

Estimated by the observer.

Take a buret, you can read to the 0.1 mL directly from the device, but the amount may lie between the 0.1 marks so you can estimate how far between the marks the fluid lies.

Kiran runs along a straight road of length 150 m. After

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Speed and velocity are not the same thing, as I'm sure you have determined while in physics. To find the average speed, we add the total distance run by Kiran and divide that total number of meters by the number of seconds it took to do this (just because I am going to state the speed and velocity in terms of m/s as opposed to m/min). To find the average velocity, we add the displacements together and divide by the total time. First the average speed:

$s=\frac{150+150}{60}=\frac{300}{60}=5\frac{m}{s}$

Velocity has direction. If Kiran runs to the end of the road (which we will call positive) and then runs back to the start (that direction will be negative), then his displacement fits into the velocity equation as

$v=\frac{150+(-150)}{60}=0$ That means, even though he ran a lot and I'm sure he was very tired, his average velocity for the trip was 0 m/s. When velocity is 0, remember that that means that the total displacement was 0.

A student using a tuning fork of frequency 512 Hz observes that the speed of sound is 340.0 m/s. What is the wavelength of this

Romashka [77]

Answer:

0.066m

Explanation:

Step one:

given

frequency =512 Hz

The speed of sound is 340.0 m/s.

Required

The wavelength

Step two:

the formula for wavelength is

$v=f \lambda$

$\lambda= v/f$

substitute the given data

$\lambda= 340/514\\\\\lambda= 0.66m$

Why does Quito, Equator has very little changes to the daylight hours<br> throughout the year?

marin [14]

Because of the position on the equator, the change in rotation of the Earth on its axis throughout the year doesn't affect it much. Unlike the poles, Quito is almost constantly in direct view of the sun. So, because of lack of change in rotation, the daylight hours are hardly varied as Quito is almost constantly in more or less the same spot in relation to the sun.
