James was standing on a boat in deep ocean water. He wanted to see how long it would take a tennis ball to reach the shore if he

threw one in from the boat. Why wouldn't this plan work?

Answer:

only the wave energy of the water moves

Explanation:

The plan will not work due to the fact that only the wave energy of the water moves and not the water itself.

<em>The wave motion of water does not displace the water. It is only able to transfer energy from one point to another within the medium. Hence, the ball will hardly be displaced because the water itself does not move. However, it can get to the shore with the assistance of the water current.</em>

PLEASE HELP!! (I will mark brainiest) (REAL ANSWERS ONLY PLEASE!)
Inessa [10]

The phosphate group of one nucleotide bonds covalently with the sugar molecule of the next nucleotide, and so on, forming a long polymer of nucleotide monomers. The sugar–phosphate groups line up in a “backbone” for each single strand of DNA, and the nucleotide bases stick out from this backbone. The carbon atoms of the five-carbon sugar are numbered clockwise from the oxygen as 1′, 2′, 3′, 4′, and 5′ (1′ is read as “one prime”). The phosphate group is attached to the 5′ carbon of one nucleotide and the 3′ carbon of the next nucleotide. In its natural state, each DNA molecule is actually composed of two single strands held together along their length with hydrogen bonds between the bases.

How much heat energy is required to melt 75g of ice at 0°C?
Mnenie [13.5K]

The enthalpy change for melting ice is called the entlaphy of fusion. Its value is 6.02 kj/mol. This means for every mole of ice we melt we must apply 6.02 kj of heat. We can calculate the heat needed with the following equation:

Q = N x ΔH

where:

Q  = heat

N  = moles  

ΔH  = enthalpy

In this problem we would like to calculate the heat needed to melt 35 grams of ice at 0 °C. This problem can be broken into three steps:


1. Calculate moles of water

2. multiply by the enthalpy of fusion

3. Convert kJ to J.


Step 1 : Calculate moles of water

[ 75g ] x (\frac{1 mol}{18.02g} ) =

Step 2 : Multiply by enthalpy of fusion

Q = N × ΔH  = <em> [ Step 1 Answer ]</em> ×  6.02 =

Step 3 : Convert kJ to J

[ Step 2 Answer ] x (\frac{1000j}{1kJ} ) =

Finally rounding to 2 sig figs (since 34°C has two sig figs) we get

Gold has a density of 19.32 g/mL. If its mass is 56.94 grams what is its volume? (BE SURE TO SHOW ALL THREE PARTS:
Alja [10]

Answer:

<h2>2.95 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density} \\

From the question we have

volume =  \frac{56.94}{19.32}  \\  = 2947204...

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.95 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you
