Explanation:
A concave meniscus,(normally seen) occurs when the molecules of the liquid are attracted to those of the container. This occurs with water and a glass tube. A convex meniscus occurs when the molecules have a stronger attraction to each other than to the container, as with mercury and glass.
<h2>
Answer: The half-life of beryllium-15 is 400 times greater than the half-life of beryllium-13.</h2>
Explanation:
The half-life
of a radioactive isotope refers to its decay period, which is the average lifetime of an atom before it disintegrates.
In this case, we are given the half life of two elements:
beryllium-13: 
beryllium-15: 
As we can see, the half-life of beryllium-15 is greater than the half-life of beryllium-13, but how great?
We can find it out by the following expression:

Where
is the amount we want to find:


Finally:

Therefore:
The half-life of beryllium-15 is <u>400 times greater than</u> the half-life of beryllium-13.
Answer:

Explanation:
The torque of a force is given by:

where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation of the system
is the angle between the direction of the force and d
In this problem, we have:
, the force
, the distance of application of the force from the centre (0,0)
, the angle between the direction of the force and a
Therefore, the torque is

Answer:
a) Ep = 5886[J]; b) v = 14[m/s]; c) W = 5886[J]; d) F = 1763.4[N]
Explanation:
a)
The potential energy can be found using the following expression, we will take the ground level as the reference point where the potential energy is equal to zero.
![E_{p} =m*g*h\\where:\\m = mass = 60[kg]\\g = gravity = 9.81[m/s^2]\\h = elevation = 10 [m]\\E_{p}=60*9.81*10\\E_{p}=5886[J]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%20%3Dm%2Ag%2Ah%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5Cm%20%3D%20mass%20%3D%2060%5Bkg%5D%5C%5Cg%20%3D%20gravity%20%3D%209.81%5Bm%2Fs%5E2%5D%5C%5Ch%20%3D%20elevation%20%3D%2010%20%5Bm%5D%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%3D60%2A9.81%2A10%5C%5CE_%7Bp%7D%3D5886%5BJ%5D)
b)
Since energy is conserved, that is, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy, the moment the harpsichord touches water, all potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy.
![E_{p} = E_{k} \\5886 =0.5*m*v^{2} \\v = \sqrt{\frac{5886}{0.5*60} }\\v = 14[m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_%7Bp%7D%20%3D%20E_%7Bk%7D%20%5C%5C5886%20%3D0.5%2Am%2Av%5E%7B2%7D%20%5C%5Cv%20%3D%20%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B5886%7D%7B0.5%2A60%7D%20%7D%5C%5Cv%20%3D%2014%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
c)
The work is equal to
W = 5886 [J]
d)
We need to use the following equation and find the deceleration of the diver at the moment when he stops his velocity is zero.
![v_{f} ^{2}= v_{o} ^{2}-2*a*d\\where:\\d = 2.5[m]\\v_{f}=0\\v_{o} =14[m/s]\\Therefore\\a = \frac{14^{2} }{2*2.5} \\a = 39.2[m/s^2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=v_%7Bf%7D%20%5E%7B2%7D%3D%20v_%7Bo%7D%20%5E%7B2%7D-2%2Aa%2Ad%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5Cd%20%3D%202.5%5Bm%5D%5C%5Cv_%7Bf%7D%3D0%5C%5Cv_%7Bo%7D%20%3D14%5Bm%2Fs%5D%5C%5CTherefore%5C%5Ca%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B14%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%7B2%2A2.5%7D%20%5C%5Ca%20%3D%2039.2%5Bm%2Fs%5E2%5D)
By performing a sum of forces equal to the product of mass by acceleration (newton's second law), we can find the force that acts to reduce the speed of the diver to zero.
m*g - F = m*a
F = m*a - m*g
F = (60*39.2) - (60*9.81)
F = 1763.4 [N]
The short answer (and the long one for that matter) is physical properties of chemicals. If you are being marked by a machine, likely the answer is going to be physical properties.
