Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of sound in air at 20 degree = 343 m/s

Velocity of sound in water at 20 degree = 1470 m/s

Time taken in to and fro movement in air

=( 2 x 10) / 343 = 0.0583 s

Rest of the time  is

.171 - .0583 = .1127 s

This time is taken to cover distance in water. If d be the depth of lake

2d / velocity = time taken

2 d / 1470 = .1127

d = 82.83 m

TWO QUESTIONS!
solong [7]

The correct answer to the question is : 1) Converting energy and 2) Within about twenty years, natural gas forms.

EXPLANATION:

In coal fired power plants, the water is heated by burning coals. The heat produced in this process will convert water into steam. The steam is allowed to rotate the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator which converts the kinetic energy of the steam into electric energy due to electromagnetic induction.

Hence, turbine helps in converting energy.

As per the second question, Walt listed the steps that occur during the formation of natural gas.

The natural gas is produced due to natural phenomenon. For this, millions of years are passed. So, it is a long range process in which the fossil of animals and planets buried beneath the surface are converted into natural gas under high pressure.

Hence, the mistake of Walt is  that the natural gas is produced withing twenty years.

I could use math to help with baking and measuring how much I should use for a cake or stuff like that, they also show us how to add our money together to help us with stuff.
Math, is helpful with many jobs, stuff learned in school can help you strategize and school also makes you think outside of the box sometimes, which can help with jobs. Also if you want to do a career with fashion designing or engineering, you can use math for that too. School also gives you the ability to read.

The relative humidity would be ________% if the actual water vapor in the air was 4 grams per cubic meter, the air's capacity to
AveGali [126]

Answer:

50%

Explanation:

Humidity is the amount water vapor present in the atmosphere.

Relative humidity is defined as the ratio of partial water vapor present in air to the actual water vapor at a particular temperature. It is expressed in percentage and the higher the percentage RH, the more the saturated water vapor present in the atmosphere and vice versa.

It is expressed mathematically as shown;

RH = actual water vapor in air/saturated water vapor × 100%

If the actual water vapor in the air was 4 grams per cubic meter and the air's capacity to hold water vapor was 8 grams per cubic meter

Actual water vapor = 4g/cm³

Air's water capacity (saturated water vapor) = 8g/cm³

RH = 4/8×100

RH = 50%
