How much heat h1 is transferred to the skin by 25.0 g of steam onto the skin? the latent heat of vaporization for steam is l=2.2
elena-s [515]
The heat transferred by the steam to the skin is given by
Q=m L_v
where
m is the mass of the steam
L_v is the latent heat of vaporization.

In our problem, the mass of the steam is (converting into kg)
m=25.0 g=0.025 kg
while the latent heat of vaporization of the steam is
L_v = 2.256 \cdot 10^6 J/kg
Substituting into the previous formula, we find the heat transferred to the skin:
Q=m L_v = (0.025 kg)(2.256 \cdot 10^6 J/kg)=56400 J = 2.56 \cdot 10^4 J

PLEASE HELP HONESTLY!!! 50 POINTS TO THE BRAINIEST!!! :)

Im not gonna write for you a whole short story (I don't have time), but just describe what you observed (in a fake reality).

For the relationship between the predator-prey: you could say a snake eating a mouse. 

Commenalism: lets say...moss grows on a tree and benefits, but it doesn't hurt or effect the tree.

Mutalism: a bird on a rhino. The bird eats parasites and bugs that feed off the rhino, the bird gets food and the rhino stays clean and parasite free.

Parasitism: a dog and a flea. Only the flea benefits from the dog. The dog has to suffer from the parasites evilness. 

Now just thread it together and describe it. Comparing is easy, just use the definition of, for example, commensalism, mutalism, in one relationship, one organism benefits, in the other, both benefit.
Have fun!

A point on a wheel of radius 40 cm that is rotating at a constant 5.0 revolutions per second is located 0.20 m from the axis of
Margarita [4]

Answer:

197.2 m/s^2

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration of a point moving by circular motion is given by:

a=\omega^2 r

where

\omega is the angular velocity

r is the distance from the axis of rotation

The point on the wheel makes 5.0 revolutions per second, so the frequency is

f=\frac{5}{1}=5 Hz

and the angular velocity is

\omega=2\pi f = 2\pi (5)=31.4 rad/s

While the distance of the point from the axis of rotation is

r=0.20 m

Substituting, we find the acceleration:

a=(31.4)^2(0.20)=197.2 m/s^2
