Breaking down sugar (glucose) is a chemical change. Sugar is a compound that can be broken down.

In your body, "break down sugar" doesn't mean grind up the crystals
into powder, and if it did, you couldn't do it with oxygen, you'd need
a hammer or a grinder.

"Break down sugar" means take a molecule of sucrose or lactose or fructose,
use oxygen to rip it apart, and then put the pieces back together as a molecule
of glucose.

It should be pretty obvious that this is a chemical change.

Suppose mass and radius of the planet are half and twice that of earth's respectively. If acceleration due to gravity of the ear
stich3 [128]

Answer:

The acceleration due to gravity of that planet is, gₐ = 1.25 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the planet, m = 1/2M

Radius of the planet, r = 2R

Where M and R is the mass and radius of the Earth respectively.

The acceleration due to gravity of Earth, g = 10 m/s²

The acceleration due to gravity of Earth is given by the relation,

                                       g = GM/R²

Similarly, the acceleration due to gravity of that planet is

                                        gₐ = Gm/r²

where G is the Universal gravitational constant

On substituting the values in the above equation

                                        gₐ = G (1/2 M)/4 R²

                                             = GM/8R²

                                             = 1/8 ( 10 m/s²)

                                             = 1.25 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration due to gravity of that planet is, gₐ = 1.25 m/s²

A 30 kg dog runs at a speed of 15 -
ololo11 [35]

Answer: The  energy of dog is 3.4\times 10^3J

Explanation:

The energy which a body possesses by virtue of being in motion is called as kinetic energy.

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times mv^2

m = mass of body in kg

v =  speed of body in m/s

K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times 30\times 15^2

K.E=3375kgm^2s^{-2}=3375J

Thus kinetic energy of dog is 3.4\times 10^3J

A certain metal wire has a cross-sectional area of 1.0 cm2 and a resistivity of 1.7 × 10-8 Ω ∙ m. How long would it have to be t
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

L=5882.35 m

Explanation:

Given that

Area ,A= 1 cm²

Resistivity  ,ρ = 1.7 x 10⁻⁸ Ω ∙ m

Resistance ,R= 1 Ω

Lets take length of the wire = L

R=\rho \times \dfrac{L}{A}

Resistivity  =ρ

Resistance =R

Area =A

Resistance =R

L=\dfrac{R\times A}{\rho }

Now by putting the values in the above equation get

L=\dfrac{1\times 1\times 10^{-4}}{1.7\times 10^{-8} }\ m

L=5882.35 m

Therefore the length of the wire will be 5882.35 m.
