Answer: $-4m/s^{2}$

Explanation:

Acceleration $a$ is defined as the variation of Velocity $\Delta V$ in time $\Delta t$ :

$a=\frac{\Delta V}{\Delta t}$

In this case $\Delta V=10m/s - 30m/s$ and $\Delta t=5 s$ .

Therefore:

$a=\frac{10m/s - 30m/s}{5 s}$

$a=\frac{-20m/s}{5 s}$

$a=-4 m/s^{2}$ Note the negative sign indicates the car is slowing

Answer:

There is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

Explanation:

To solve the problem it is necessary to take into account the concepts related to the change of voumen in a substance depending on the temperature.

The formula that describes this thermal expansion process is given by:

$\Delta V = \beta V_0 \Delta T$

Where,

$\Delta V =$ Change in volume

$V_0 =$ Initial Volume

$\Delta T =$ Change in temperature

$\beta =$ coefficient of volume expansion (Coefficient of copper and of the liquid for this case)

There are two types of materials in the container, liquid and copper, so we have to change the amount of Total Volume that would be subject to,

$\Delta V_T = \Delta V_l - \Delta V_c$

Where,

$\Delta V_l$ = Change in the volume of liquid

$\Delta V_c$ = Change in the volume of copper

Then replacing with the previous equation we have:

$\Delta V = \beta_l V_0 \Delta T- \beta_c V_0 \Delta T$

$\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T$

Our values are given as,

Thermal expansion coefficient for copper and the liquid to 20°C is

$\beta_c = 51*10^{-6}/\°C$

$\beta_l = 400*10^{-6}/\°C$

$V_0 = 16L$

$\Delta T = (95\°C-10\°C)$

Replacing we have that,

$\Delta V = (\beta_l-\beta_c)V_0\Delta T$

$\Delta V = (400*10^{-6}/\°C-51*10^{-6}/\°C)(16L)(95\°C-10\°C)$

$\Delta V = 0.475L$

Therefore there is a loss of fluid in the container of 0.475L

Bowen’s reaction series illustrates relations between:

Finger [1]

C. Temperature, chemical composition and mineral structure

Explanation:

The Bowen's reaction series illustrates the relationship between temperature, chemical composition and mineral structure.

The series is made up of a continuous and discontinuous end through which magmatic composition can be understood as temperature changes.

The left part is the discontinuous end while the right side is the continuous series.
From the series, we understand that a magmatic body becomes felsic as it begins to cool to lower temperature.
A magma at high temperature is ultramafic and very rich in ferro-magnesian silicates which are the chief mineral composition of olivine and pyroxene. These minerals are predominantly found in mafic- ultramafic rocks. Also, we expect to find the calcic-plagioclase at high temperatures partitioned in the magma.
At a relatively low temperature, minerals with frame work structures begins to form . The magma is more enriched with felsic minerals and late stage crystallization occurs here.

Answer:

All

Explanation:

I'm not sure what you meant but Newton's third law which basically states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction applies to <em>all</em> objects. So I think the answer is all.
