Answer:
After sufficient thickness of ice is formed it prevents further loss of heat from the bottom layers of water. This is why fishes and other aquatic animals and plants can survive in ponds and other water bodies even when the atmospheric temperature reaches or is well below 0 degrees.The anomalous expansion of water helps preserve aquatic life during very cold weather. When temperature falls, the top layer of water in a pond contracts becomes denser and sinks to the bottom. ... Thus, even though the upper layer are frozen, the water near the bottom is at 4°C and the fishes can survive in it easily.
The answer is a Mid-Ocean ridge.
Answer:
The activation energy for this reaction, Ea = 159.98 kJ/mol
Explanation:
Using the Arrhenius equation as:

Where, Ea is the activation energy.
R is the gas constant having value 8.314 J/K.mol
K₂ and K₁ are the rate constants
T₂ and T₁ are the temperature values in kelvin.
Given:
K₂ = 8.66×10⁻⁷ s⁻¹ , T₂ = 425 K
K₁ = 3.61×10⁻¹⁵ s⁻¹ , T₁ = 298 K
Applying in the equation as:

Solving for Ea as:
Ea = 159982.23 J /mol
1 J/mol = 10⁻³ kJ/mol
Ea = 159.98 kJ/mol
Answer:
0.8976 seconds
Explanation:
The period of oscillation for the simple harmonic motion can be found using the formula ...
T = 2π√(d/g)
where d is the displacement of the spring due to the attached weight, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
__
For d = 0.20 meters, the period is ...
T = 2π√(0.20/9.8) ≈ 0.8976 . . . . seconds
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The formula for the oscillator period is usually seen as ...
T = 2π√(m/k)
where m is the mass in the system and k is the spring constant. The value of the spring constant is calculated from ...
k = mg/d
Using that in the formula, we find it simplifies to ...
