Answer:

oxygen is used up is the answer

Explanation:

These vaporized molecules are drawn up into the flame, where they react with oxygen from the air to create heat, light, water vapor (H2O) and carbon dioxide (CO2).

A woman with mass 50 kg is standing on the rim of a large disk that is rotating at 0.80 rev/s about an axis through its center.
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

angular momentum, L=1.4\times 10^4\ kg-m^2/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the woman, m = 50 kg

Angular velocity of the disk, \omega=0.8\ rev/s=5.02\ rad/s

Mass of the disk, m' = 2670 kg

Radius of the disk, R = 4 m

We need to find the magnitude of the total angular momentum of the woman–disk system. The moment of inertia of the system is equal to the sum of moment of inertia of women and the moment off inertia of the disk.

I=mR^2+\dfrac{1}{2}m'R^2\\\\I=R^2(m+\dfrac{1}{2}m')\\\\I=(4)^2\times (50+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 270)\\\\I=2960\ kg-m^2

The angular momentum is given by :

L=I\omega\\\\L=2960\times 5.02\\\\L=14859.2\ kg-m^2/s

or

L=1.4\times 10^4\ kg-m^2/s

So, the magnitude of the total angular momentum of the woman–disk system is 1.4\times 10^4\ kg-m^2/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

2) What does the specific heat capacity of a material tell you about how easy it is to heat up
Fed [463]

Answer:

High specific heat -> takes more energy to raise/lower object's temperature

Low specific heat -> takes less energy to raise/lower object's temperature

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of something per unit of mass.

A high specific heat value for an object means it takes more energy to raise or lower that object's temperature. A low specific heat value for an object means it does not take very much energy to heat or cool that object.

Sally Leadfoot was pulled over on her way from Syracuse to Ithaca by an officer claiming she was speeding. The speed limit is 65
Citrus2011 [14]

Sally's average speed is <u>35.3 mi/h.</u>

Average speed of a body is the total distance traveled in the given time interval.

Express the distance  d traveled in miles.

d=\frac{97 km}{1.6 km/m\\i} \\ = 60 mi

Express the time t traveled in hours.

t  =\frac{102 min}{60 min/hr}\\ = 1.7 h

Calculate the average speed v.

v =\frac{d}{t} \\ =\frac{60 mi}{1.7h} \\   = 35.3 mi/h

Her average speed is 35.3 mi/h, which is less than the speed limit of 65 mi/h.

However, the average speed of an object is different from its instantaneous speed. It could be possible that at the time when the officer apprehended her, Sally could have been travelling at a speed greater than the prescribed speed limit, which would have prompted the officer to issue a speeding ticket to her.

Thus, the average speed of a person cannot be considered as a bench mark for speeding offences, since her instantaneous speed could have been higher than the speeding limit and yet she could have had an average speed less than the speeding limit.

Why did thomson’s results from experimenting with cathode rays cause a big change in scientific thought about atoms?
natima [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Before Thomson's discovery, atoms were believed according to the "Dalton's atomic theory" to be the smallest indivisible particle of any matter. This makes atoms the smallest unit of a matter.

Thomson in 1897, used the discharge tube to discover cathode rays which are today called electrons.

The discovery of electrons provided more light into the structure and nature of atoms. Atoms were now being seen in a different light as particles that are made up of other smaller sized particles.

Thomson through his experiment was able determine perfectly well the nature of the rays he saw emanating from the cathode. One of his findings shows that the rays are negatively charged and are repelled by negative charges.

The discovery of electrons further led to more works on the atom and other particles were discovered. Atoms were no longer seen as indivisible or the smallest particles of matter.
