E ground pushes you forward. But that interaction is friction. Reduce friction and it doesn't matter how strong your legs are, the surface is incapable of pushing you accordingly. The coefficient of static friction is very low so it is easy to slide your foot rather than push.

The total volume of seawater is 1.5 x 1021L .Assume that seawater contains 3.1 percent sodium chloride by mass and that its dens
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Mass in kg = 4.7*10^19 kg

Mass in tons = 5.2*10^16 tons

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Total volume of sea water = 1.5*10^21 L

Mass % NaCl in seawater = 3.1%

Density of seawater = 1.03 g/ml

<u>To determine:</u>

Total mass of NaCl in kg and in tons

<u>Calculation:</u>

Unit conversion:

1 L = 1000 ml

The volume of seawater in ml is:

=\frac{1.5*10^{21}L*1000ml }{1L} =1.5*10^{24} ml

Mass\ seawater = Density*volume = 1.03g/ml*1.5*10^{24} ml=1.5*10^{24}g

Mass\ NaCl\ in\ seawater = \frac{3.1}{100}*1.5*10^{24}  g=4.7*10^{22} g

To convert mass from g to Kg:

1000 g = 1 kg

Mass\ seawater(kg) = \frac{4.7*10^{22}g*1kg }{1000g} =4.7*10^{19} kg

To convert mass from g to tons:

1 ton = 9.072*10^6 g

Mass\ seawater(tons) = \frac{4.7*10^{22}g*1ton }{9.072*10^{6}g } =5.2*10^{16} tons

What characterizes a Homo genesis mixture
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

The correct answer would be the third choice.

Homo-genesis mixtures are the same in composure, and will be hard to break apart other then with chemical means.

Hope this helps!

Which law states that at constant temperature the pressure of a given amount of gas is inversely proportional to the volume of t
Phantasy [73]
That law is known as Boyle's Law, "The volume of a given mass of a gas is inversely related to pressure when the temperature is constant"

What is the change in temperature when 75 grams of water releases -2657 J of energy? The specific heat of water is 4.18 J/g°C
Naily [24]
I think the answer for this is 4702.5 J/g*k Depending on if it is water as a solid liquid or gas. I used water as a liquid when I solved it. J=(75g)(4.18 J/g*k)(15K)
