a glass beaker has a mass of 50g. a liquid of density 1.8g/cm3 is poured into the beaker until it reaches the 200cm3 mark. calcu
xz_007 [3.2K]

<u>Answer:</u>

total mass = 410 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

density = 1.8 g/cm³

volume = 200 cm³

                              density = mass / volume

                              mass (of liquid) = density   x    volume

                                        = 1.8 x 200

                                        = 360 g

          total mass (beaker + liquid) = 50 + 360 = 410 g     [Ans]

A pendulum on earth swings with angular frequency ω. On an unknown planet, it swings with angular frequency ω/ 4. The accelerati
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

g / 16

Explanation:

T = 2π \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

angular frequency ω = 2π /T

= \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

ω₁ /ω₂ = \sqrt{\frac{g_1}{g_2} }

Putting the values

ω₁ = ω ,     ω₂ = ω / 4

ω₁ /ω₂ = 4

4 =  \sqrt{\frac{g}{g_2} }

g₂ = g / 16

option d is correct.

Explain what causes acid rain to form and its negative effects on living and nonliving things.
OLga [1]
What causes it to form: <span>Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain. Human activities, power plants, and exhaust from vehicles all are causes.</span>
Affects on living things-
Acid rain can kill trees
It can affect plant growth patterns
Toxins can kill animals
Nonliving things- 
It can decay building materials and paints
it breaks down rocks
