Which of these activities performed by a chemist is primarily based on an understanding of physics?

A scientist conducting a field investigation records measurements of very low pressure and high relative humidity at the top of

Ivan

Answer:

Please find the answer in the explanation

Explanation:

Given that a scientist conducting a field investigation records measurements of very low pressure and high relative humidity at the top of a mountain.

Since a weather map indicates that a warm front is approaching the mountain, according to the conventional current, the warm front is approaching because the weather must have been in higher relative humidity in cool air.

The warm front is approaching to replace it so that the cool air can conventionally replace the warmth air too.

The condition the scientists will most likely observe at the top of the mountain will be high relative humidity.

A river 1.00 mile wide flows with a constant speed of 1.00 mph. A man can row a boat at 2.00 mph. He crosses the river in a dire

gladu [14]

To solve this problem we will apply the geometric concepts of displacement according to the description given. Taking into account that there is an initial displacement towards the North and then towards the west, therefore the speed would be:

$V_T^2=v_N^2-v_W^2$

$V_T = \sqrt{v_N^2-v_W^2}$

Travel north 2mph and west to 1mph, then,

$V_T = \sqrt{2^2-1^2}$

$V_T = \sqrt{3}$

The route is done exactly the same to the south and east, so make this route twice, from the definition of speed we have to

$v= \frac{\Delta x}{t}$

$t = \frac{\Delta x}{v}$

$t = \frac{2*(1mile)}{\sqrt{3}mph}$

$t = 1.15hour$

Therefore the total travel time for the man is 1.15hour.

Two balls are thrown against a wall. Ball 1 has a much higher speed than ball 2.

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Let both the balls have the same mass equals to m.

Let $v_1$ and $v_2$ be the speed of the ball1 and the ball2 respectively, such that

$v_1>v_2\;\cdots(i)$

Assuming that both the balls are at the same level with respect to the ground, so let h be the height from the ground.

The total energy of ball1= Kinetic energy of ball1 + Potential energy of ball1. The Kinetic energy of any object moving with speed, $v$ , is $\frac 12 m v^2$

and the potential energy is due to the change in height is $mgh$ [where $g$ is the acceleration due to gravity]

So, the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_1^2 + mgh\;\cdots(ii)$

and the total energy of ball1,

$=\frac 12 m v_2^2 + mgh\;\cdots(iii)$ .

Here, the potential energy for both the balls are the same, but the kinetic energy of the ball1 is higher the ball2 as the ball1 have the higher speed, refer equation (i)

So, $\frac 12 m v_1^2 >\frac 12 m v_2^2$

Now, from equations (ii) and (iii)

The total energy of ball1 hi higher than the total energy of ball2.

In your own words, answer the following 3 questions about an object experiencing red shift? 1. Describe the motion of an object

german

1. When an object is moving away from us, the light from the object is known as redshift, and when an object is moving towards us, the light from the object is known as blueshift.

2. A wavelength increases in size, and its frequency, and energy decrease.

3. The frequency of a wave increases, and its wavelength decreases.

Redshift is an important term for astronomers. The term can be taken literally. The wavelengths of light are stretched and perceived as shifting toward the red portion of the spectrum. The same thing happens to sound waves when the source moves relative to the observer.

As the wave frequency decreases, the wavelength increases as long as the wave velocity remains constant. If the wave speed stays the same as the frequency decreases, it means that fewer wave peaks or troughs pass through a given point in a given time period. The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency. Frequency and energy decrease with increasing wavelength.

What is the first law of conservation of energy? How is the law applicable to the earths energy balance

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

First law of thermodynamic state that energy is always conserved, in other word, energy cannot be created or destroyed.

This means that energy can only transfer from one source to another.

For example, the electricity we used to power our phone didn't come from nowhere.

We charge our phone using the energy from the electricity from the outlet.

The outlet gets its energy from the power plant, who generated that energy from burning coal.

The coal they burned got their energy while they were alive as plants.

The plants got their energy from the sun.

The sun got its energy from other cosmic stuff and so on...

My point is that the energy we use will always cycle around. It doesn't come from thin air and it doesn't disappear into thin air either. This help keeps things balance because if energy is created out of thin air then the earth might just blow up. If energy gets erased into thin air then there'll be nothing to fuel life.
