Why are marble and granite used so often as a building materials?

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Granite is an excellent building material that provides some outstanding interior design opportunities whilst being incredibly sturdy and reliable. It has become one of the most popular building materials in modern construction, from kitchen surfaces through to paving slabs.You Can Expect Durability and Longevity. Firstly, marble is so popular around the world because of its durability in a wide variety of weather conditions. Structures that are over hundreds of years old made from marble are still standing to this day, and look as pristine as they day they were crafted.

A person is lifting a heavy box using a lever. What is the purpose of the lever in this situation?

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force

Explanation:

1. "A lever consists of a rigid bar that is able to pivot at one point. This point of rotation is known as the fulcrum. A force is applied at some point away from the fulcrum (typically called the effort)."

By this definition, we know that force is needed to lift an object using a lever.

2. "When the input and output forces are on opposite sides of the fulcrum, the lever changes the direction of the applied force. This occurs only with first-class levers. When both the input and output forces are on the same side of the fulcrum, the direction of the applied force does not change"

For example, on a sew saw, if a force is applied on one end, you on the other side/end would go up, meaning a change in direction.

3. Lastly, we know a lever is typically used to reduce work, in other words, the force needed to move something.

Basically, if we were to put a lever into an equation:

reduced force + change in direction = lever

(the expection) unless load and force are on the same side, there will be no change in direction.

For example, if you and your friend sit on the same side of a sew saw, the sew saw would not go up or down, meaning no change in direction.

So if not stated otherwise you can assume the load and force are on opposite sides. The purpose of a lever in that situation would be to reduce the force needed to lift the box and change the direction of the force.

*While reading my explanation, it may be helpful to look up a diagram containing a lever, with a load, fulcrum, and applied force.

You place ammonium nitrate crystals in water and stirred. As you do so, the container becomes cold to the touch. This an example

ankoles [38]

The process of flask becoming cold is due to endothermic reaction.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

So two kinds of heat transfer can be possible in any chemical reaction. If the sample is considered as system and the sample container is considered as the surrounding, then heat transfer can occur between them.

If the heat is transferred from the surrounding to the system , then it is an endothermic reaction. And in those cases, the sample holder will be becoming colder. This is because the heat from the surrounding that is the container will be utilized to complete the reaction.

While when there is transfer of heat from the system to surrounding , it will be exothermic reaction and the beaker will be getting hot in this process. So in the present case, the container is becoming cold because of occurrence of endothermic process.

A car traveling at 28 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 13 seconds. What is its acceleration?

Maru [420]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning)

change in speed = (zero) minus (28 m/s) = -28 m/s

Acceleration = (-28 m/s) / (13 sec)

Acceleration = -2.15 m/s²
