Answer:

Buoyancy.

Explanation:

Buoyancy is a force created by the water that is displaced by an object. It is directly proportional to the amount of water that is being displaced by an object.

Hence, the greater the amount of water an object displaces; the greater is the force of buoyancy pushing the object up.

The buoyancy of an object is given by the formula;

$Fb = pgV\\\\But, V = Ah\\\\Hence, Fb = pgAh$

Where;

Fb = buoyant force of a liquid acting on an object.

g = acceleration due to gravity.

p = density of the liquid.

v = volume of the liquid displaced.

h = height of liquid (water) displaced by an object.

A = surface area of the floating object.

The unit of measurement for the buoyancy of an object is Newton (N).

29. A gas has a volume of 1.75 L at -23°C and 150.0 kPa.

arsen [322]

The answer for the following mention bellow.

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 260 k

Explanation:

Given:

Initial pressure ( $P_{1}$ ) = 150.0 kPa

Final pressure ( $P_{2}$ ) = 210.0 kPa

Initial volume ( $V_{1}$ ) = 1.75 L

Final volume ( $V_{2}$ ) = 1.30 L

Initial temperature ( $T_{1}$ ) = -23°C = 250 k

To find:

Final temperature ( $T_{2}$ )

We know;

According to the ideal gas equation;

P × V = n × R ×T

where;

P represents the pressure of the gas

V represents the volume of the gas

n represents the no of moles of the gas

R represents the universal gas constant

T represents the temperature of the gas

We know;

$\frac{P*V}{T}$ = constant

$\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} }$ × $\frac{V_{1} }{V_{2} }$ = $\frac{T_{1} }{T_{2} }$

Where;

( $P_{1}$ ) represents the initial pressure of the gas

( $P_{2}$ ) represents the final pressure of the gas

( $V_{1}$ ) represents the initial volume of the gas

( $V_{2}$ ) represents the final volume of the gas

( $T_{1}$ ) represents the initial temperature of the gas

( $T_{2}$ ) represents the final temperature of the gas

So;

$\frac{150 * 1.75}{210 * 1.30}$ = $\frac{260}{T_{2} }$

( $T_{2}$ ) =260 k

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 260 k

A machine has a mechanical advantage of 0.6. What force should be applied to the machine to make it apply 600 N to an object?

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

1000N is needed to be applied.

Explanation:

Machines make doing work easier. They allow us use small effort to carry out work on huge amount of load.

The mechanical advantage of a machine;

(M.A) =load/effort

M.A = 0.6

Load =600N

effort =?

0.6 = 600/effort

effort = 600/0.6

effort = 1000N

Electrolytes are defined as those compounds which: have covalent bonding produce less lowering at the freezing point than do com

Fofino [41]

Answer:

Electrolytes are defined as those compounds which dissolve in a solvent such as water to produce a solution which conducts electric current easily.

Explanation:

Electrolytes are chemical compounds that dissolve in a solvent such as water and dissociate into ions (cations and anions) which helps to conduct electric current. They can be solids, liquids, or solutions and examples include all ionic compounds such as sodium chloride, calcium chloride, etc.

When electrodes are placed in a solution containing an electrolyte, the ions produced in the solution move from one electrode to the other. The negatively charged ions called anions are attracted to the positive electrode and the positively charged ions called cations are attracted to the negative electrode. This movement of ions generates an electric current. Electrolytes are also needed for the various electrochemical processes in living things and the main ions in these electrolytes are sodium (Na+), calcium (Ca2+), potassium (K+), magnesium (Mg2+), chloride (Cl-), etc.
