One example is that when their food catches fire in a cooking pot or pan, it is advisable to smother the fire by covering the fire with a blanket rather than douse the fire with water. DOeing the later will only aggravate the fire. Knowledge of basic science dictates that oil and water are immiscible liquids the oil will continue to burn even as the water is poured into the oil. More so, as the water violently evaporates due to the heat, it spreads the burning oil and hence spreads the fire.

Scientific principles is a law or rules in science that has to be or usually is to be followed, or can be desirably followed or is an inevitable consequence of something, such as the laws observed in nature or the way that a system is constructed. I think people that practices this principle encounter life systematicaly and efficiently

Consider the displacement vectors Ā=(i +6j)m, B = (3i– 7j)m,
andrezito [222]

Answer:

Dx = -0.5

Dy = -0.25

Explanation:

Two vectors are given in rectangular components form as follows:

A = i + 6j

B = 3i - 7j

It is also given that:

A - B - 4D = 0

so, we solve this to find D vector:

(i + 6j) - (3i - 7j) - 4D = 0

- 2i - j = 4D

D = - (2/4)i - (1/4)j

D = - (1/2)i - (1/4)j

<u>D = - 0.5i - 0.25j</u>

Therefore,

<u>Dx = -0.5</u>

<u>Dy = -0.25</u>

Why are household wall sockets alternating current (AC) instead of direct current (DC)? Select all that apply.
Bond [772]

Answer:

It is easier to scale the voltage of AC from high to low and low to high than with DC

Explanation:

typically power is used far away from the place where it's generated so to ensure that transmission losses( copper losses) are minimized voltage has to be stepped up during transmission..but due to the fact that most house hold equipment requires low voltage levels it has to be stepped down once it reaches a household/ domestic load...it's easier to do this for Ac than for DC.

Sometimes students are taught that "air expands as it is heated". And sometimes they are taught that "as air expands it cools".
hram777 [196]

Answer:

Both are true under specific circumstances. And are related to Boyle's law. volume and pressure in a gas are inversely proportional.

Explanation:

There is a tendency to entropy in our reality, that is, in particular true and visible with gases, they tend to occupy the whole space where they are confined, when we heat a volume of gas, then the movement of the particles and in consequence the pressure of the gas increases and to compensate this the volume tends to be increased too, according to Boyle's law. And the opposite happens when the volume is increased, then the pressure is  relieved and since the particles are further one from each other, then the temperature is lower, and therefore it cools down.

Calculate the number of free electrons per cubic meter for some hypothetical metal, assuming that there are 1.3 free electrons p
boyakko [2]

Answer:

The number of free electrons per cubic meter is 7.61\times 10^{28}\ m^{-3}

Explanation:

It is given that,

The number of free electrons per cubic meter is, 1.3

Electrical conductivity of metal, \sigma=6.8\times 10^7\ \Omega^{-1}m^{-1}

Density of metal, \rho=10.5\ g/cm^3

Atomic weight, A = 107.87 g/mol

Let n is the number of  free electrons per cubic meter such that,

n=1.3\ N

n=1.3(\dfrac{\rho N_A}{A})

Where

\rho is the density of silver atom

N_A is the Avogadro number

A is the atomic weight of silver

n=1.3\times (\dfrac{10.5\ g/cm^3\times 6.02\times 10^{23}\ atoms/mol}{107.87\ g/mol})

n=7.61\times 10^{22}\ cm^{-3}

or

n=7.61\times 10^{28}\ m^{-3}

Hence, this is the required solution.
