Answer:

(1) it is transparent so it makes the reading difficult. (2) it is volatile. (3) it is a poor conductor of heat. (4) it has a higher specific heat capacity, so it absorbs more heat from the body with which it is kept in contact. (5) Water cannot be used in thermometer because of its higher freezing point and lower boiling point than other liquids . If water is used in a thermometer , it will start phase change at 0oC and 100oC and will not measure temperature , out of this range .

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND PLEASE MARK AS BRAINLIEST :)

How much work do you do on a 15 N book in lifting it straight up for a distance of<br> 0.40 meters?

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

Work done, W = 6 J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force of gravity acting on the book, weight of the book is 15 N

We need to find the work done in lifting the book straight up for a distance of 0.4 meters.

The weight of the book is acting in downward direction and the book is lifted straight up, it means angle between them is 180 degrees. Work done is given by :

$W=Fd\cos180\\\\W=15\times 0.4\times \cos180\\\\W=-6\ J$

So, the magnitude of work done in lifting the book is 6 joules.

You are sitting 3 m away from you friend who is watching a cartoon on his phone. How will the sound itensity change if your frie

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Decreases by $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.

The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.

In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance. i.e. $\frac{1}{r^2}$

In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = $\frac{1}{9}$

But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by = $\frac{1}{0.06^2}$

= $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

On both the spring and fall equinoxes, the sun's rays are vertically overhead at the _______

Anni [7]

It is overhead at the equator, it is because the sun ray’s will be moving vertically as this will be directed at the equator. It is because if it moves vertically, it will hit or overhead the equator and this usually happens in spring and fall.
