Answer:

Option C is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The speed of sound in air is given approximately by

$v=331.4+0.6T_c$

Here $T_c$ is the temperature in degree Celsius.

Temperature $T_c=30^0C$

Substituting we will get

v = 331.4 + 0.6 x 30 = 349.4 m/s

Option C is the correct answer.

The parcel will undergo projectile motion, which means that it will have motion in both the horizontal and vertical direction.

First, we determine how long the parcel will fall using:

s = ut + 1/2 at²

where s will be the height, u is the initial vertical velocity of the parcel (0), t is the time of fall and a is the acceleration due to gravity.

5.5 = (0)(t) + 1/2 (9.81)(t)²

t = 1.06 seconds

How does an ice cube melt when you hold it in your hand?

dezoksy [38]

The heat from your hand causes the ice molecules to heat up and become more active. This lowers the stability of the ice cube compound causing it to melt.

Given that a lever has a mechanical advantage of 6.0 and is 100% efficient, if the resistance is to be lifted 2.0 inches, then h

Shalnov [3]

The mechanical advantage of a machine is the ratio of the force produced by the machine to the force applied to it. Therefore, we may calculate the applied force using:
Mechanical advantage = force by machine / force applied
6 = 2 / force applied
Force applied = 1/3

Thus, the distance that the effort must move will be 1/3 inch

Suppose that a comet that was seen in 550 A.D. by Chinese astronomers was spotted again in year 1941. Assume the time between ob

pickupchik [31]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Kepler's third law as well as the calculation of distances in orbits with eccentricities.

Kepler's third law tells us that

$T^2 = \frac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3$

Where

T= Period

G= Gravitational constant

M = Mass of the sun

a= The semimajor axis of the comet's orbit

The period in years would be given by

$T= 1941-550\\T= 1391y(\frac{31536000s}{1y})\\T=4.3866*10^{10}s$

PART A) Replacing the values to find a, we have

$a^3= \frac{T^2 GM}{4\pi^2}$

$a^3 = \frac{(4.3866*10^{10})^2(6.67*10^{-11})(1.989*10^{30})}{4\pi^2}$

$a^3 = 6.46632*10^{39}$

$a = 1.86303*10^{13}m$

Therefore the semimajor axis is $1.86303*10^{13}m$

PART B) If the semi-major axis a and the eccentricity e of an orbit are known, then the periapsis and apoapsis distances can be calculated by

$R = a(1-e)$

$R = 1.86303*10^{13}(1-0.997)$

$R= 5.58*10^{10}m$

Write two examples of chemical properties and explain what they are

Gre4nikov [31]

Chemical Properties are properties of a substance that are seen during a chemical reaction. In other words, chemical properties cannot be found by looking/touching the substance. Those are its physical properties.

Examples

Flammability
toxicity
solubility
Acidity
Electronegativity
