Answer: describing how copper changes color in chlorine.

Explanation:

Quantitative observation is one which involves measurement of data in numbers.

Qualitative observation is one which can be observed with our senses such as sight, smell, touch, taste, and hearing. Qualitative observations do not involve any measurement.

Measuring the speed is a quantitative observation as it deals with numbers.

Describing how copper changes color in chlorine does not involve any numerical measurement hence a qualitative observation.

Recording how long it takes to burn magnesium is measuring time which is recorded in numbers and is a quantitative observation.

Showing the results of an experiment with a graph is data representation in numbers and is a quantitative observation.

A charge of 1.5 µC is placed on the plates of a parallel plate capacitor. The change in voltage across the plates is 36 V. How m

belka [17]

Answer:

Energy stored in the capacitor is $U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge, $q=1.5\ \mu C=1.5\times 10^{-6}\ C$

Potential difference, V = 36 V

We need to find the potential energy is stored in the capacitor. The stored potential energy is given by :

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}q\times V$

$U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.5\times 10^{-6}\times 36$

U = 0.000027 J

$U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$

So, the potential energy is stored in the capacitor is $U=2.7\times 10^{-5}\ J$ . Hence, this is the required solution.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

D. It is very small when compared to the universe

Explanation:

The Milky Way can be regarded galaxy which has Solar System in it. Milky way gives the description of appearance of galaxy from Earth, it is a hazy band of light that's been formed from the stars which can be visualized in the sky during the night, though it cannot be sorted by mere human eyes. Milky Way has existed for about 13.51 billion years with the radius of 52,850 light years. the Number of stars in milky way is about 100-400 billion. It should be noted that themilky way galaxy is a very large galaxy but It is very small when compared to the universe
