Water molecules are made of slightly positively charged hydrogen atoms and slightly negatively charged oxygen

Physics

Answer:

Surface tension.

Explanation:

Water has this thing called surface tension, where the water, most of the time, is hard to split.

A few examples of surface tension in action:

  • If you spill some water, you can see that they seem to connect together as if they were magnetic.
  • You can put around 20-30 drops of water on average on a penny. This shows that water has better surface tension than other liquids, like oil, that can the penny can only hold around 10-15.
  • Lastly, water bugs (which are kind of like mosquitos) can actually stay on top of the water, because they do not break the surface tension of it.

Hope this helps you!

A piece of glass has a temperature of 72.0 degrees Celsius. The specific heat capacity of the glass is 840 J/kg/deg C. A liquid
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

741 J/kg°C

Explanation:

Given that

Initial temperature of glass, T(g) = 72° C

Specific heat capacity of glass, c(g) = 840 J/kg°C

Temperature of liquid, T(l)= 40° C

Final temperature, T(2) = 57° C

Specific heat capacity of the liquid, c(l) = ?

Using the relation

Heat gained by the liquid = Heat lost by the glass

m(l).C(l).ΔT(l) = m(g).C(g).ΔT(g)

Since their mass are the same, then

C(l)ΔT(l) = C(g)ΔT(g)

C(l) = C(g)ΔT(g) / ΔT(l)

C(l) = 840 * (72 - 57) / (57 - 40)

C(l) = 12600 / 17

C(l) = 741 J/kg°C

What is force??????<br> ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀​
Gwar [14]

Answer:

A force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from the object's interaction with another object. Whenever there is an interaction between two objects, there is a force upon each of the objects. ... Forces only exist as a result of an interaction.

The current theory of the structure of the
Elza [17]

Answer:  91.4 J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body due to virtue of its motion.

K.E. = 0.5 m v²

Mass of the continent is given, m = 1.819 × 10²¹ kg

Side of the block of continent, s = 4150 km = 4150000 m

Depth of the block of continent, d = 38 km = 38000 m

(Mass = density × volume

m = 2780 kg/m³× (4150 × 10³ m)²× 38 × 10³ m = 1.819 × 10²¹ kg)

The continent is moving at the rate of, v = 1 cm /year = 0.01 m / 31556926 s = 3.17 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s

⇒ K.E. = 0.5 × 1.819 × 10²¹ kg × (3.17 × 10⁻¹⁰ m/s)²= 91.4 J

Hence, mass of the continent has 91.4 J of kinetic energy.

Energy is conserved. This means that in any system, _________. a) energy is constantly recycled b) total energy input equals tot
tangare [24]

Answer:

b) total energy input equals total energy output

Explanation:

The first law of thermodynamics is a generalization of the conservation of energy in thermal processes. It is based on Joule's conclusion that heat and energy are equivalent. But to get there you have to get around some traps along the way.

From Joule's conclusion we might be tempted to call heat "internal" energy associated with temperature. We could then add heat to the potential and kinetic energies of a system, and call this sum the total energy, which is what it would conserve. In fact, this solution works well for a wide variety of phenomena, including Joule's experiments. Problems arise with the idea of ​​heat "content" of a system. For example, when a solid is heated to its melting point, an additional "heat input" causes the melting but without increasing the temperature. With this simple experiment we see that simply considering the thermal energy measured only by a temperature increase as part of the total energy of a system will not give a complete general law.

Instead of "heat," we can use the concept of internal energy, that is, an energy in the system that can take forms not directly related to temperature. We can then use the word "heat" to refer only to a transfer of energy between a system and its environment. Similarly, the term work will not be used to describe something contained in the system, but describes a transfer of energy from one system to another. Heat and work are, therefore, two ways in which energy is transferred, not energies.

In an isolated system, that is, a system that does not exchange matter or energy with its surroundings, the total energy must remain constant. If the system exchanges energy with its environment but not matter (what is called a closed system), it can do so only in two ways: a transfer of energy either in the form of work done on or by the system, either in the form of heat to or from the system. In the event that there is energy transfer, the change in the energy of the system must be equal to the net energy gained or lost by the environment.
