Answer:

Every characteristic property is unique to one given substance. Scientists use characteristic properties to identify an unknown substance. Characteristic properties are used because the sample size and the shape of the substance does not matter.

Explanation:

A characteristic property is a chemical or physical property that helps identify and classify substances. The characteristic properties of a substance are always the same whether the sample being observed is large or small. Examples of characteristic properties include freezing/melting point, boiling/condensing point, density, viscosity and solubility.

klemol [59]

Answer:

The free end of the blade has a tangential velocity of about 88.19 m/s

Explanation:

The angular velocity of the blades is $2 \pi /5.7\,\,rad/sec$

since the blades are 80 m long, then the tangential velocity of the free end of the blade is:

$v_{tan} \approx 88.19\,\,m/s$

What is the velocity of a 50kg skater if her momentum is 225kg. m/s?

Gnom [1K]

|Momentum| = (mass) x (speed)

225 kg-m/s =(50kg) x (speed)

Divide each side by (50kg): Speed=(225 kg-m/s) / (50 kg) = 4.5 m/s .

Regarding the velocity, nothing can be said other than the speed, because
we have no information regarding the direction of the object's motion.

Like they said the leopard seal will overpopulate and kill out all of the other animals. Because it would be at the top of the chain then without the killer whale. Therefore, since it is at the top of the chain it will overpopulate because it has nothing to eat/kill it so then they would eat the animals lower than them<span />
