The vanishing of an ionic solid (like table salt) would be an example of acting like a solvent

Answer: pour an ionic solid into water and see if it vanishes.

Explanation: The solubility of substances is governed by: Like dissolves like, which states that polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents and non polar compounds are soluble in non polar solvents.

Ionic compounds are formed by combination of positively charged cations and negatively charged anions which are held by strong coloumbic forces.When ionic compounds are dissolved in water, the ions are dissociated due to high dielectric constant of water and thus dissolve in water.

Water being a polar solvent is able to dissolve ionic or polar compounds in it.

A passenger on your boat falls overboard. what should you do first?
yarga [219]
The very first thing that you should do when a passenger on your boat falls overboard is to throw a PFD or also known as a Personal Flotation Device. This would include anything that can help the passenger to float. But this step would differ, only if the passenger is not wearing a lifevest.

How do I know if i’m doing number 2 right?
Ksju [112]

We are given an object that is speeding up on a level ground.

Let's remember that the gravitational energy depends on the change in height, therefore, if the object is not changing its height it means that the gravitational energy remains constant.

The kinetic energy depends on the velocity. If the velocity is increasing this means that the kinetic energy is also increasing.

Now, every change in velocity requires acceleration and acceleration requires a force. The force and the distance that the object moves are equivalent to the work that is transferred to the object and therefore, the change in kinetic energy. This means that the total energy of the system increases as work is transferred to the mass.

We have that the total energy of the system increases in the form of kinetic energy and that the gravitational potential energy remains constant. Therefore, the diagrams should look like pie charts that grow but the area of the segment of the potential energy stays the same. It should look similar to the following.

What is the torque τa about axis a due to the force f⃗ ? express the torque about axis a at cartesian coordinates (0,0)?
pentagon [3]

Answer:

\tau_a = F a sin \theta

Explanation:

The torque of a force is given by:

\tau = F d sin \theta

where

F is the magnitude of the force

d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation of the system

\theta is the angle between the direction of the force and d

In this problem, we have:

F, the force

a, the distance of application of the force from the centre (0,0)

\theta, the angle between the direction of the force and a

Therefore, the torque is

\tau_a = F a sin \theta
