How is newton's first law used in basketball?

arlik [135]

Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest tends to stay at rest, while an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless an external force acts upon it. This law appears in basketball when the player is shooting the ball. When the player is holding the ball, the ball is at rest but when a player shoots the ball, they use force to throw the ball in the hoop.

When light passes through sequential interfaces, there may be a change of phase upon reflection at each interface.

Lena [83]

That's true.

I have a hunch that there definitely IS a change of phase at every reflection.

All biomes don’t have the same level of biodiversity. What seems to be the optimal conditions for high biodiversity?

irinina [24]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

The optimal conditions for high biodiversity seem to be a warm temperature and wet climates.

The tropical areas of the world have the highest biodiversity and are characterized by an average annual temperature of above 18 $^oC$ and annual precipitation of 262 cm. The areas are referred to as the world's biodiversity hotspots.

Consequently, it follows logically that the optimal conditions for high biodiversity would be a warm temperature of above 18 $^oC$ and wet environment with annual precipitation of not less than 262 cm.

The variation in temperature and precipitation across biomes can thus be said to be responsible for the variation in the level of biodiversity in them.

If this energy were used to vaporize water at 100.0 ∘C, how much water (in liters) could be vaporized? The enthalpy of vaporizat

Zanzabum

Answer:

0.429 L of water

Explanation:

First to all, you are not putting the value of the energy given to vaporize water, so, to explain better this problem, I will assume a value of energy that I took in a similar exercise before, which is 970 kJ.

Now, assuming that the water density is 1 g/mL, this is the same as saying that 1 g of water = 1 mL of water

If this is true, then, we can assume that 1 kg of water = 1 L of water.

Knowing this, we have to use the expression to get energy which is:

Q = m * ΔH

Solving for m:

m = Q / ΔH

Now "m" is the mass, but in this case, the mass of water is the same as the volume, so it's not neccesary to do a unit conversion.

Before we begin with the calculation, we need to put the enthalpy of vaporization in the correct units, which would be in grams. To do that, we need the molar mass of water:

MM = 18 g/mol

The enthalpy in mass:

ΔH = 40.7 kJ/mol / 18 g/mol = 2.261 kJ/g

Finally, solving for m:

m = 970 / 2.261 = 429 g

Converting this into volume:

429 g = 429 mL

429 / 1000 = 0.429 L of water
