Answer:
It's 1.0000042 times longer in summer than in winter. It represents a 1.6 centimeters difference between seasons.
Explanation:
The linear coefficient of thermal expansion for steel is about
. From the equation of linear thermal expansion, we have:

Taking the winter day as the initial, and the summer day as the final, we can take the relationship between them:
![L_{summer}=L_{winter}[1+(1.2*10^{-7}\°C^{-1})(30\°C+5\°C)]\\\\L_{summer}=(1.0000042)L_{winter}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=L_%7Bsummer%7D%3DL_%7Bwinter%7D%5B1%2B%281.2%2A10%5E%7B-7%7D%5C%C2%B0C%5E%7B-1%7D%29%2830%5C%C2%B0C%2B5%5C%C2%B0C%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CL_%7Bsummer%7D%3D%281.0000042%29L_%7Bwinter%7D)
It means that the bridge is 1.0000042 times longer in summer than in winter. If we multiply it by the length of the bridge, we obtain that the difference is of about 1.6 centimeters between the two seasons.
Answer:
By putting something like a sheet of glass in the water.
Explanation:
Putting a sheet of glass in the water will make the ripples move slower because the speed of a wave depends on the depth of water.
50N.
The magnitude of the reaction to any force is equal to the magnitude of the first force. (See Newton #3.)
Answer:
The correct answer is option A: they are isotopes.
Explanation:
From atom X we know that the number of protons is 7 and the number of neutrons is 7 and from atom Z we know that the number of protons is 7 and the number of neutrons is 8.
Since the number of protons of atom X and atom Z is the same, we have that atom X and atom Z is the same element. The difference in the number of neutrons tells us that atom X and atom Z are isotopes. Remember that an isotope is one element that has atoms with different numbers of neutrons.
The mass number is given by:
Where <em>n</em> is the number of neutrons and <em>p </em>is the number of protons.
For atom X and atom Z we have:

Hence, they have a different mass number.
We know that the element with 7 protons is nitrogen. The first isotope is
and the second isotope is
. Both isotopes are stables (they are not radioactive).
Therefore, the correct answer is option A: they are isotopes.
