Why does surface water disperse when touched with soap?

Physics
2 answers:
aivan3 [116]3 years ago

The end of the detergent molecule which attaches to fat (grease) repels water molecules. It is known as hydrophobic, meaning "water fearing." By attempting to move away from the water molecules, the hydrophobic ends of the detergent molecules push up to the surface. This weakens the hydrogen bonds holding the water molecules together at the surface. The result is a break in the surface tension of the water.

Answer:

In a soap-and-water solution the hydrophobic (greasy) ends of the soap molecule do not want to be in the liquid at all. Those that find their way to the surface squeeze their way between the surface water molecules, pushing their hydrophobic ends out of the water. This separates the water molecules from each other.

(d) If η = 40% and TH = 427°C, what is TC, in °C?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

T_C=256.2^{\circ}C

Explanation:

Given that,

Efficiency of heat engine, \eta=40\%=0.4

Temperature of hot source, T_H=427^{\circ}C

We need to find the temperature of cold sink i.e. T_C. The efficiency of heat engine is given by :

\eta=1-\dfrac{T_C}{T_H}

T_C=(1-\eta)T_H

T_C=(1-0.4)\times 427

T_C=256.2^{\circ}C

So, the temperature of the cold sink is 256.2°C. Hence, this is the required solution.

Which has more thermal energy: lake or a cup of hot chocolate?
lawyer [7]
Though the hot cocoa would have a higher temperature, the lake would have more thermal energy because it has more molecules with a greater total internal energy.

Could someone explain to me how to got the answer B, thank you very much​
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

since -6 lasted for 5 seconds, multiplying both would result in -30

3 lasted for 10 seconds, so multiplying both would give +30

average = ( 30 + (-30) ) / 2

30 -30 is already equal to zero, so the answer should be 0

A 6.00-mH solenoid is connected in series with a 5.0-μF capacitor and an AC source. The solenoid has internal resistance 3.0 Ω w
son4ous [18]

Answer:

5773.50269 Hz

23 A

Explanation:

L = Inductance = 6 mH

C = Capacitance = 5 μF

R = Resistance = 3 Ω

\epsilon = Maximum emf = 69 V

Resonant angular frequency is given by

\omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{LC}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{6\times 10^{-3}\times 5\times 10^{-6}}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=5773.50269\ Hz

The resonant angular frequency is 5773.50269 Hz

Current is given by

I=\dfrac{\epsilon}{R}\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{69}{3}\\\Rightarrow I=23\ A

The current amplitude at the resonant angular frequency is 23 A
