What causes the random, zig-zag movement (Brownian motion) of smoke particles suspended in air?​

Physics
1 answer:
lidiya [134]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

It is caused by air molecules colliding with smoke particles

Explanation:

To start with, Brownian motion is the erratic or irregular movement of very small particles in a medium due to continuous bombardment by molecules that surround the medium.

Thus, smoke moves in a Zig-Zag manner (Brownian motion) due to continious air bombardment. If it were pollen grain suspended in water, the erratic movement (Brownian motion) of the grains is caused by bombardment from water molecules.

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

The answer to your question are A and C

Explanation:

Quantitative data are quantities, something that we get after measuring something.

A. Measuring the rate of gas production from a chemical.  This example is a quantitative measure, because we are measuring the rate.

B. Describing the clarity of water in a sample  If we are describing something, means that we are not measuring anything, so this is not a quantitative measure.

C. Calculating the energy released from an electrochemical reaction If we are not measuring but we are using the data somebody else got to calculate energy, them this is a quantitative data.

A car travelling 95 km/h is 210 behind a truck travelling 75 km/h. how long will it take the care to reach the truck
masya89 [10]
<span>37.8 seconds First, determine the speed difference between the car and truck. 95 km/h - 75 km/h = 20 km/h Convert that speed into m/s to make a more convenient unit of measure. 20 km/h * 1000 m/km / 3600 s/h = 5.556 m/s Now it's simply a matter of dividing the distance between the two vehicles and their relative speed. 210 m / 5.556 m/s = 37.8 s So it will take 37.8 seconds for the car to catch the truck that's 210 meters in front of the car.</span>

A ruby laser delivers a 16.0-ns pulse of 4.20-MW average power. If the photons have a wavelength of 694.3 nm, how many are conta
stepan [7]

Answer:

The  value is  n  =  2.347 *10^{17} \  photons

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  amount of power delivered is  P  =  4.20 \  M W  =  4.20  *10^{6} \  W

      The  time taken is  t =  16.0ns  =  16.0 *10^{-9} \  s

       The  wavelength is  \lambda  =  694.3 \  nm =  694.3 *10^{-9} \  m

     

Generally the energy delivered is  mathematically represented as

     E  =  P  * t  =  \frac{n  *  h  *  c  }{\lambda }

Where  h is the Planck's constant with value  h  =  6.262  *10^{-34} \  J \cdot  s

           c  is the speed of light with value  c =  3.0*10^{8} \  m/s

     

So  

    4.20 *10^{6}  *  16*10^{-9}=  \frac{n  *  6.626 *10^{-34}  *  3.0*10^{8}  }{694.3 *10^{-9}}

=>    n  =  2.347 *10^{17} \  photons
