Explanation: When a pure substance's particle is moving from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration by occupying the spaces between the particles of another substance it is mixing or diffusing with. The particles of both the substances will mix or diffuse faster when the temperature is high.

A bottle dropped from a balloon reaches the ground in 20 s. determine the height of the balloon if (a) it was at rest in the air
romanna [79]
<span>a) 1960 m b) 960 m Assumptions. 1. Ignore air resistance. 2. Gravity is 9.80 m/s^2 For the situation where the balloon was stationary, the equation for the distance the bottle fell is d = 1/2 AT^2 d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 400 s^2 d = 4.9 * 400 m d = 1960 m For situation b, the equation is quite similar except we need to account for the initial velocity of the bottle. We can either assume that the acceleration for gravity is negative, or that the initial velocity is negative. We just need to make certain that the two effects (falling due to acceleration from gravity) and (climbing due to initial acceleration) counteract each other. So the formula becomes d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 - 50 m/s * T d = 1/2 9.80 m/s^2 (20s)^2 - 50m/s *20s d = 4.9 m/s^2 * 400 s^2 - 1000 m d = 4.9 * 400 m - 1000 m d = 1960 m - 1000 m d = 960 m</span>

How much water can be held by a cylindrical tank with a radius of 12 feet and a height of 30 feet? A. 2,260.8 cubic feet B. 13,5
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Volume, V = 13564.8  cubic feet

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the cylindrical tank, r = 12 feet

Height of the tank, h = 30 feet

We need to find the water that can be held by a cylindrical tank i.e. we need to find the volume of the tank. It is given by :

V=\pi\times r^2\times h

V=3.14\times (12)^2\times 30

V = 13564.8  cubic feet

So, the water held by the tank is 13564.8  cubic feet. Hence, this is the required solution.

Why will humans feel lighter on mars?
kotykmax [81]
Because Mars is further from the sun than Earth is, thus the gravitational pull is not as great on Mars as it is on Earth, making us lighter :)

A snowboarder starts from rest on an inclined planar snow surface and gives herself a tiny push to start sliding down the hill.
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

v = 26.52 m/s

Explanation:

Here we know that as she passes the flag she will gain some speed

so here we can say that

Work done by all forces = change in kinetic energy of the system

so we will have

W_g + W_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2 - \frac{1}{2}mv_i^2

here we know that

W_g = mgh

W_f = -\mu mg d

v_i = 0

h = 39.78 m

d = 27.81 m

so we have

mgh - \mu mg d = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0

(9.8)(39.78 - (0.14)(27.81)) = \frac{1}{2} v^2

v = 26.52 m/s
