Answer:

A Chinese Geomancer

 Explanation:

The compass was invented in China during the Han Dynasty between the 2nd century BC and 1st century AD where it was called the "south-governor" or "South Pointing Fish" (sīnán 司南). The magnetic compass was not, at first, used for navigation, but for geomancy and fortune-telling by the Chinese.

However, it is believed Flavio Gioia first invented the refined compass, and a monument has been erected in Almafi Italy to honor his invention. The magnetic compass was probably developed by combining the wind rose and the lodestone. From this device, it is supposed the compass rose evolved.

A 4000 N force acts on an object that initially has a momentum of 400 kg-m/s for 0.9 seconds. What is the final momentum of the
kaheart [24]

Answer:

4360 Kgm/s

Explanation:

Applying,

Ft = M-M'................. Equation 1

Where F = force, t = time, M = Final momentum, M' = Initial momentum.

make M the subject of the equation

M = Ft+M'............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 4000 N, t = 0.9 seconds, M' = 400 kg-m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

M = 4000+(0.9×400)

M = 4000+360

M = 4360 kgm/s

Hence the final momentum is 4360 kgm/s

Effect of Solvent:
Naddik [55]

1. H2O- The water completely dissolved the salt.

Alcohol- The alcohol dissolved the salt slightly.

Glycerin-The salt has not dissolved at all.

2. Water

3. Like dissolve like basically works on the principle of polarity. It means the substances which possess similar chemical properties may dissolve in each other. For example, ethanol can be dissolved in water because both are polar in nature whereas non-polar molecules can be dissolved in non-polar solvents only.

4. Generally, a solute dissolves faster in a warmer solvent than it does in a cooler solvent because particles have more energy of movement. For example, if you add the same amount of sugar to a cup of hot tea and a cup of iced tea, the sugar will dissolve faster in the hot tea.
