Because the pressure falls, water boils at a lower temperature with increasing altitude. Consequently, cake mixes and boiled egg

s, among other foods, must be cooked different lengths of time. Determine the boiling temperature of water at 1000 and 2000 m elevation on a standard day, and compare with the sea-level value

Answer:

1) The boiling point of water reduces by 3.28°C at 1,000 m above sea-level

2) The boiling point of water reduces by 6.56°C at 2,000 m above sea-level

Explanation:

The variation of the boiling point of water with elevation is given as follows

The boiling point reduces by 0.5°C for every 152.4 meter increase in elevation

At sea-level, the boiling point temperature of water = 100°C

1) At 1,000 m elevation, the boiling point temperature, T = 100 - (1,000/152.4) × 0.5 ≈ 96.72 °C

Therefore, the boiling point of water reduces by 100° - 96.72° = 3.28°C at 1,000 m above sea-level

2) At 2,000 m elevation, the boiling point temperature, T = 100 - (2,000/152.4) × 0.5 ≈ 93.44°C

The boiling point of water reduces by 100° - 93.44° = 6.56°C at 2,000 m above sea-level

Hi, can anyone write 5 or 4 paragraph about virus pls I rly need it DO NOT PLAGIARIZE!
Licemer1 [7]
Viruses are microscopic organisms that exist almost everywhere on earth. They can infect animals, plants, fungi, and even bacteria.

Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so deadly that it is fatal. Other viral infections trigger no noticeable reaction.

A virus may also have one effect on one type of organism, but a different effect on another. This explains how a virus that affects a cat may not affect a dog.

Viruses vary in complexity. They consist of genetic material, RNA or DNA, surrounded by a coat of protein, lipid (fat), or glycoprotein. Viruses cannot replicate without a host, so they are classified as parasitic.

They are considered the most abundant biological entity on the planet.

A car is traveling at 15 m/sm/s . Part A How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

21.21 m/s

Explanation:

Let KE₁ represent the initial kinetic energy.

Let v₁ represent the initial velocity.

Let KE₂ represent the final kinetic energy.

Let v₂ represent the final velocity.

Next, the data obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (v₁) = 15 m/s

Initial kinetic Energy (KE₁) = E

Final final energy (KE₂) = double the initial kinetic energy = 2E

Final velocity (v₂) =?

Thus, the velocity (v₂) with which the car we travel in order to double it's kinetic energy can be obtained as follow:

KE = ½mv²

NOTE: Mass (m) = constant (since we are considering the same car)

KE₁/v₁² = KE₂/v₂²

E /15² = 2E/v₂²

E/225 = 2E/v₂²

Cross multiply

E × v₂² = 225 × 2E

E × v₂² = 450E

Divide both side by E

v₂² = 450E /E

v₂² = 450

Take the square root of both side.

v₂ = √450

v₂ = 21.21 m/s

Therefore, the car will travel at 21.21 m/s in order to double it's kinetic energy.

How do you work out how many atoms there are in a isotope?
GalinKa [24]
206Pb = 1.342 x10^22 atoms 

<span>To find the number of atoms, you must first find the number of moles. If 238U is 238.029g/mol, and we have 1.75 grams, how many moles is that? 1.75 divided by 238.029 = 0.007352045 moles. To find the number of atoms in 0.007352045 moles, you multiply by a mole: </span>
<span>0.007352045 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 4.426 x10^21 atoms. </span>

<span>Same procedure for 206Pb: </span>
<span>4.59 divided by 205.97446 = 0.022284316 moles </span>
<span>0.022284316 x 6.02 x 10^23 = 1.342 x10^22 atoms. </span>

<span>Hope that helps you!
