Answer:

The combination of the two, water and soap, form bubbles that make a compound capable of removing the oil. The soap lifts the oil and dirt and becomes suspended in the water then we rinse off the soapy water and down goes the oil with it.

Answer:

Soap breaks up the oil into smaller drops, which can mix with the water. It works because soap is made up of molecules with two very different ends (one end of molecules are hydrophilic, so they love water; the other end of molecules is hydrophobic, so they hate water).

In which item is energy stored in the form of gravitational potential energy? A. A slice of bread B. A compressed spring C. An a
marysya [2.9K]

The things that determine the amount of an object's gravitational potential energy are ...

-- mass of the object

-- gravitational acceleration in the place where the object is

-- height of the object above the ground or the floor

A). <em>a slice of bread; </em> No.  It's still a slice of bread even if it's on the ground.

B. <em>A compressed spring; </em> No.  It's still a compressed spring even if it's on the ground.

C. <em>An apple on a tree</em>; <em>Yes !</em>  It can't be an apple on a tree if it's on the ground.  

D. <em>A stretched bow string</em>; <em>No.</em>  It's still a stretched bowstring even if it's on the ground.

Which term describes the point when two objects reach the same temperature and there is no longer a transfer of energy through h
yaroslaw [1]
The term you need to know is equilibrium. Technically it means that heat gained = heat lost. Normally in beginning chemistry classes the evidence for this condition is a stable temperature.

A 6.5 x 104 W engine exerts a constant force on of 5.5 x 103 N on a car, the resulting velocity is?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

12m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Power = 6.5 x 10⁴W

Force  = 5.5 x 10³N

Unknown:

The resulting velocity  = ?

Solution:

 The velocity of a body is related to force and power using the expression below;

            Power  = Force x velocity

Insert the parameters and solve for velocity

         6.5 x 10⁴  = 5.5 x 10³ x velocity

          velocity  = \frac{6.5 x 10^{4} }{5.5 x 10^{3} }   = 12m/s
