Wayne wants to become a lifeguard. For part of the lifeguard test, he has to float in the pool for five minutes. Why does Wayne

float
instead of sinking to the bottom of the pool?
A. Wayne weighs too much.
Exhibits
B. Wayne does not weigh very much.
C. Gravity pushes Wayne up against the water.
D. The water pushes Wayne up against gravity.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

The gravity is pushing the water downward so Wayne could go down but the water is pushing Wayne to go up which would make him float.

charge, q1 =5.00μC, is at the origin, a second charge, q2= -3μC, is on the x-axis 0.800m from the origin. find the electric fiel
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electric field due to charge at origin

= k Q / r²

k is a constant , Q is charge and r is distance

= 9 x 10⁹ x 5 x 10⁻⁶ / .5²

= 180 x 10³ N /C

In vector form

E₁ = 180 x 10³ j

Electric field due to q₂ charge

= 9 x 10⁹ x 3 x 10⁻⁶ /.5² + .8²

= 30.33 x 10³ N / C

It will have negative slope θ with x axis

Tan θ = .5 / √.5² + .8²

= .5 / .94

θ = 28°

E₂ = 30.33 x 10³ cos 28 i - 30.33 x 10³ sin28j

= 26.78 x 10³ i - 14.24 x 10³ j

Total electric field

E = E₁  + E₂

= 180 x 10³ j +26.78 x 10³ i - 14.24 x 10³ j

= 26.78 x 10³ i + 165.76 X 10³ j

magnitude

= √(26.78² + 165.76² ) x 10³ N /C

= 167.8 x 10³  N / C .

How does the latent heat of fusion of water help slow the decrease in air temperature,perhaps preventing temperatures from falli
love history [14]

Answer:

Water has the ability to release a large amount of energy during the freezing process. All of this energy is released into the air, resulting in a greater movement of air particles that will increase the air temperature. This heat will prevent air temperatures from drastically falling below 0ºC.

Explanation:

The latent heat of water occurs when the water is changing its physical state. In other words, when substances are changing their physical state, the amount of heat calculated for this change is called latent heat, and as we have already said, this heat is not related to the heat exchanges between two systems, but the change of state. physicist.

When water is changing from its liquid state to a solid state, we call latent heat latent heat from fusion (this is because fusion is the name we give to when liquid water is turning to ice). In the process of freezing the page, latent heat releases a large amount of energy into the air near the water. This energy agitates the air molecules, generating heat and preventing the air from reaching temperatures below 0ºC.

The mass of an electron is...
tester [92]
<span>The mass of an electron is not significant to the overall mass of the atom. (B)

It takes roughly 1,850 electrons to equal the mass of ONE proton or neutron,
but the most complex atom has only around 100 of them.</span>

If a body travels half its total path in the last 1.50 s of its fall from rest, find the total time of its fall (in seconds).
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

time to fall is 3.914 seconds

Explanation:

given data

half distance time = 1.50 s

to find out

find the total time of its fall

solution

we consider here s is total distance

so equation of motion for distance

s = ut + 0.5 × at²   .........1

here s is distance and u is initial speed that is 0 and a is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 and t is time

so for last 1.5 sec distance is 0.5 of its distance so equation will be

0.5 s = 0 + 0.5 × (9.8) × ( t - 1.5)²     ........................1

and

velocity will be

v = u + at

so velocity v = 0+ 9.8(t-1.5)    ..................2

so first we find time

0.5 × (9.8) × ( t - 1.5)² = 9.8(t-1.5)  + 0.5 ( 9.8)

solve and we get t

t = 3.37 s

so time to fall is 3.914 seconds

Convert the mass to kgs thanks
Natali [406]
Memorize this and you'll be able to do ALL of these:  <em>1  kg = 1,000 g</em>

So if you have some grams, divide the number by 1,000 to get kilograms.

1,000 g = 1.000 kg

500 g = 0.500 kg

100 g = 0.100 kg

50 g = 0.050 kg

20 g = 0.020 kg

10 g = 0.010 kg
