Mike is conducting an experiment in which he places several different types of soil in a funnel and then pours one liter of wate

r through each. He is careful to pack equal volumes of the soil samples tightly in the funnel and to make sure that only water makes it out of the bottom. He then records the amount of time it takes for half of the water to pass through the soil and out the bottom of the funnel. He records his data in the table below.
Soil Sample Time (seconds)
Soil W 181
Soil X 27
Soil Y 119
Soil Z 50

Which soil sample is the least permeable?
A.
Soil W
B.
Soil Z
C.
Soil Y
D.
Soil X

Answer:

soil W

Explanation:

Permeability is a measure of how easily water flows through soil. A soil that is made up of large, jagged rocks is likely to be more permeable than a soil that is made up of compact clay.  One way to test a soil's permeability is to pour water through it. More permeable soil will allow water to pass through it rapidly, while less permeable soil will block more of the water.

Permeability is a measure of how fast a liquid can pass through a layer of solid. In this case, the lesser the time, the more permeable the solid is. Or the other way around, the bigger the time, the less permeable the solid is. Therefore the answer in this problem is:

A roller coaster car is elevated to a height of 30 m and released from rest to roll along a track. At a certain time T it is at
Naddika [18.5K]

Explanation:

Initial energy = final energy + work done by friction

PE = PE + KE + W

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv² + W

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v² + 25000

v = 22.1 m/s

Without friction:

PE = PE + KE

mgH = mgh + 1/2 mv²

(800)(9.8)(30) = (800)(9.8)(2) + 1/2 (800) v²

v = 23.4 m/s

Find the wavelength of the third line in the lyman series, and identify the type of em radiation.
Natalija [7]

The wavelength of the third line in the Lyman series, and identify the type of EM radiation

In this series, the spectral lines are obtained when an electron makes a transition from any high energy level (n=2,3,4,5... ). The wavelength of light emitted in this series lies in the ultraviolet region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

1 / lambda = R(h)* ( \frac{1}{(n1)^{2} } -   \frac{1}{(n2)^{2} })

                 = 109678 ( \frac{1}{1^{2} } -  \frac{1}{3^{2} } )

                 = 109678 (8/9)

   Lambda = 9 / (109678 * 8 )

                  = 102.6 * 10^{-9} m = 102.6 nm
