explain why when water is poured on a dry class slab it spreads uniformly but it forms spherical droplets on a waxed glass slab​

Physics
1 answer:
Mars2501 [29]3 years ago
8 0

Answer and Explanation:

The texture of the slabs affects the type of bonding the water molecules has with each other.

The dry glass slab allows the water to form cohesive bonds with each other, making the water stick to itself and not the slab, which makes it flow uniformly, or regularly.

The Waxed glass slab has a different texture that forms an adhesive-type bonding with water, making the water stick to the slab at certain parts/forming the spherical droplets.

The pressure in a water line is 1500 kpa. what is the line pressure in (a) lb/ft2 units and (b) lbf/in2 (psi) units?
kotegsom [21]

To solve this problem, we know that:

1 psi = 6894.76 Pa

1 lb / ft^2 = 47.88 Pa

 

Therefore:

a. 1500 x 10^3 Pa * (1 lb / ft^2 / 47.88 Pa) = 31,328.32 lb / ft^2

 

b. 1500 x 10^3 Pa * (1 psi / 6894.76 Pa) = 217.56 psi

What latitudes are most likely to see glaciers??  
olga55 [171]

Answer : Option D) 90°N and 90°S

Explanation : The latitudes which are given in the options are the angle to be measured in the direction of north and south respectively taking equator as the central line.

When it is 90°N and 90°S it means it forms an right angle and faces towards north and south respectively with respect to the equator, so there are high chances of pointing towards the Arctic and Antarctic regions respectively; therefore giving greater probability of finding glaciers.
