Answer:

The answer is surface tension.

Explanation:

The high surface tension helps the paper clip - with much higher density - float on the water. The cohesive forces between liquid molecules are responsible for the phenomenon known as surface tension. hope this helps :)

What is the momentum of a bird with a mass of 2 kg flying at 9 m/s? *
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

<h2>18 kg.m/s</h2>

Explanation:

The momentum of an object can be found by using the formula

momentum = mass × velocity

From the question we have

momentum = 2 × 9

We have the final answer as

<h3>18 kg.m/s</h3>

Hope this helps you

How many grams of glucose are in 175 mL of a 5.50% (m/v) glucose solution?
puteri [66]
<span>1. 5.50% m/v means that the solution contains 5.50% of the volume measured in grams

so in 165mL you will have 5.5%*165 = 9.075g

2. 18.5% v/v means 18.5% of the total volume is methyl alcohol

so in 1.87L you will have 18.5%*1.87 = 0.35L of methyl alcohol.

3. This one works backwards. If 32.1 g is 6.00%, what is 100%?

100% = 32.1/0.06 = 535 mL </span>

A tank contains 90 kg of salt and 2000 L of water. Pure water enters a tank at the rate 6 L/min. The solution is mixed and drain
sashaice [31]

Answer:

a) 90 kg

b) 68.4 kg

c) 0 kg/L

Explanation:

Mass balance:

-w=\frac{dm}{dt}

w is the mass flow

m is the mass of salt

-v*C=\frac{dm}{dt}

v is the volume flow

C is the concentration

C=\frac{m}{V+(6-3)*L/min*t}

-v*\frac{m}{V+(6-3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{dt}

-3*L/min*\frac{m}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{dt}

-3*L/min*\frac{dt}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{m}

-3*L/min*\int_{0}^{t}\frac{dt}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\int_{90kg}^{m}\frac{dm}{m}

-[ln(2000L+3*L/min*t)-ln(2000L)]=ln(m)-ln(90kg)

-ln[(2000L+3*L/min*t)/2000L]=ln(m/90kg)

m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*t)]

a) Initially: t=0

m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*0)]=90kg

b) t=210 min (3.5 hr)

m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*210min)]=68.4kg

c) If time trends to infinity the  division trends to 0 and, therefore, m trends to 0. So, the concentration at infinit time is 0 kg/L.
