Answer:
<em>Aim at the base of the fire and use short bursts until the fire is out.</em>
<em></em>
Explanation:
Fire extinguishers use CO2 (Carbondioxide) as the extinguishing agent. This is because CO2 is denser than air, and does not support combustion.
Aiming at the base of the fire causes the CO2 to fall on the base of the fire, where the source of the fire is, trapping it, and preventing it from further reacting with air in a combustion reaction. Also, the short burst creates a strong wind that forces the flame to blow out.
Answer:
100 cc
Explanation:
Heat released in cooling human body by t degree
= mass of the body x specific heat of the body x t
Substituting the data given
Heat released by the body
= 70 x 3480 x 1
= 243600 J
Mass of water to be evaporated
= 243600 / latent heat of vaporization of water
= 243600 / 2420000
= .1 kg
= 100 g
volume of water
= mass / density
= 100 / 1
100 cc
1 / 10 litres.
Answer:
Option D: 21.8 degrees
Explanation:
In a parallel RL circuit, the current in the resistor R and that in the inductor L are separated among themselves 90 degrees as illustrated in the attached image. In the image the current in the resistor is represented in orange, that of the inductor in blue, and the total current (vector addition of the previous two) is represented in red, forming a certain angle (theta) with respect to the current in the resistor. The output voltage is the same as the input voltage as measured over the resistor R.
Therefore, the phase angle that separated output voltage and total current can be obtained using the fact that tan(phase angle) =
, therefore the angle is the arctangent of 4/10:
degrees.
If you are pushing the coin across the table at a constant rate, the friction of the table and the horizontal force of your hand pushing are equal, and the coin itself moves at a constant rate. If you push a coin and let it go, there is no horizontal force keeping the coin going. Friction slows the coin to a stop. In both cases, the gravitational downward pull of Earth is equally but oppositely resisted by the upward push of table on the coin.
