Why is ice harder than liquid water?

1 answer:

6 0

Hello~

Ice is harder than liquid water because the molecules of ice are linked more tightly together than the molecules of liquid water.

Hope this helps!

The drag force pushes opposite your motion as you ride a bicycle. If you double your speed, what happens to the drag force?

timurjin [86]

Answer: The drag force goes up by a factor of 4

Explanation:

The Drag Force equation is:

$F_{D}=\frac{1}{2}C_{D}\rho A_{D}V^{2}$ (1)

Where:

$F_{D}$ is the Drag Force

$C_{D}$ is the Drag coefficient, which depends on the material

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid where the bicycle is moving (air in this case)

$A_{D}$ is the transversal area of the body or object

$V$ the bicycle's velocity

Now, if we assume $C_{D}$ , $\rho$ and $A_{D}$ do not change, we can rewrite (1) as:

$F_{D}=C.V^{2}$ (2)

Where $C$ groups all these coefficients.

So, if we have a new velocity $V_{n}$ , which is the double of the former velocity:

$V_{n}=2V$ (3)

Equation (2) is written as:

$F_{D}=C.V_{n}^{2}=C.(2V)^{2}$

$F_{D}=4CV^{2}$ (4)

Comparing (2) and (4) we can conclude the Drag force is four times greater when the speed is doubled.

What is the relationship between the spring constant and the period in a mass hanging on a spring oscillation and why?

anygoal [31]

Explanation:

Period of a mass on a spring is:

T = 2π√(m/k)

T is inversely proportional with the square root of k. So as the spring constant increases, the period decreases.

Debido al desorden en el laboratorio un científico tiene 2 termómetros diferentes pero no sabe en qué escalas están por lo que d

just olya [345]

Answer:

La escala del termómetro ''A'' es grados Celsius.

La escala del termómetro ''B'' es grados Fahrenheit.

Explanation:

Para hallar en qué escalas están los termómetros partimos de que la mezcla a la cuál se midió su temperatura mantuvo su temperatura constante.

Esto quiere decir que los termómetros están expresando la misma temperatura pero en una escala distinta.

Sabemos que dada una temperatura en grados Celsius ''C'' si la queremos convertir a grados Fahrenheit ''F'' debemos utilizar la siguiente ecuación :

$F=(\frac{9}{5})C+32$ (I)

Ahora, si reemplazamos y asumimos que la temperatura de 18° es en grados Celsius, entonces si reemplazamos $C=18$ en la ecuación (I) deberíamos obtener $F=64.4$ ⇒

$F=(\frac{9}{5}).(18)+32=32.4+32=64.4$

Efectivamente obtenemos el valor esperado. Finalmente, corroboramos que la temperatura del termómetro ''A'' está medida en grados Celsius y la temperatura del termómetro ''B'' en grados Fahrenheit.
