Discrete systems are those systems in which are made up of finite component particles a which are non-homogeneously arranged such that no smooth variation exists. It is such that all constituent particles have properties which vary randomly. They are direct opposite to continuous systems, which are smooth arrangement of particles which cannot be individually taken into consideration.

Answer:
<em>h = 20 m</em>
Explanation:
<u>Gravitational Potential Energy</u>
Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is the energy stored in an object due to its vertical position or height in a gravitational field.
It can be calculated with the equation:
U=m.g.h
Where m is the mass of the object, h is the height with respect to a fixed reference, and g is the acceleration of gravity or 
.
The weight of an object of mass m is:
W = m.g
Thus, the GPE is:
U=W.h
Solving for h:
The weight of the owl is W=40 N and its GPE is U=800 J.
h = 20 m
Answer: All apply
The periodic table is an arrangement of the chemical elements in the form of a table, ordered by:
-Their atomic number (number of protons)
-Their configuration of electrons
-Their chemical properties
It was progressively developed over time as the scientific knowledge advanced; for this reason many modifications and corrections might be done in the future.
Its usefulness lies in the fact that it allows the existing elements to be organized in a more structured and coherent way, according to the chemical properties they possess. Dividing the table into rows and columns, which represent the periods and groups or families.
Then, with the location and classification of an element according to its group, we can determine how it acts by knowing its chemical and physical characteristics.
This is how with this configuration can be distinguished 4 sets of chemical elements, according to the ease of their atoms to lose or gain electrons, transforming into ions: metals, semimetals, non-metals and noble gases.
This has helped to predict the existence of various elements that have not yet been discovered, because by elements already located in the table and the periodicity found, <u>there are still empty spaces that indicate the composition of the element that has not yet been found</u>.
In addition, this table helps to simplify in some way the teaching of chemical elements and facilitates their learning, as well as their usage in the development of technological innovations.
Before the first behaviorist (Watson), Psychology was a part of philosophy.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
mass of lead piece 
mass of water in calorimeter 
Initial temperature of water 
Initial temperature of lead piece 
we know heat capacity of lead and water are 
and 
respectively
Let us take 
be the final temperature of the system
Conserving energy
heat lost by lead=heat gained by water
