Hey how's your day going

I hope after I answer that you understand and don't just paste my answer into your assignment!!! (<- read!!!)

Answer \|/

             

Ice is less dense than water.

Reason why \|/

                   

When water freezes the molecules inside completely stop moving (They still vibrate but don't change their position much). In doing so, they spread out a touch which makes it less dense than liquid water. So ice floats

For a given amount of gas at a constant temperature, the volume of a gas varies inversely with its pressure is a statement of __
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

d. Boyle's

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: States that the volume of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional proportional to its pressure, provided temperature remains constant.

Stating this mathematically. this implies that:

V∝1/P

V = k/P, Where k is the constant of proportionality

PV = k

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

Where P₁ and P₂ are the initial and final pressure respectively, V₁ and V₂ are the the initial and final volume respectively.

Hence the right option is d. Boyle's

A teacher asks her students to jump off of the ground. Once the students complete the task, she says, "All of you just made Eart
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

A) Newton's first law of motion states that an object will remain at rest or continue in its current state of motion except it is acted upon by another force.

Now using this law, when you jump off the ground, the earth will move a tiny bit and accelerate due to the force applied by the jumping.

B) Newton's 2nd law states that the acceleration of a system is directly proportional to the net external force acting on that system, is in the same direction with it and also inversely proportional to the mass.

In this case, when one jumps, an external force is exerted on the earth and we are told it is directly proportional to the acceleration of the system which in this case it's the earth, then it means that there is some motion by the earth even though you didn't see it move.

C) Newton's third law of motion states that to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

In this case the motion of the jumper will lead to an equal and opposite reaction of the earth.

A. Write two or three sentences to describe the conductivity of an insulator. Explain its conductivity in terms of the electrons
aliya0001 [1]

PART A)

Conductivity of insulator is very small as there is no free electrons to conduct the current trough that medium

So here number of conduction electrons are very less in insulators

PART B)

Resistance is the property of a conducting medium which will oppose the flow of current trough it

Resistance of wire directly depends on its length so resistance of long wire will be more than the resistance of short wire

Resistance inversely depends on the area so if a wire has more crossectional area then its resistance must be small

PART C)

power of light bulb is defined as rate of electrical energy

it is given by formula

P = i V

here we know that

i = 1.46 A

V = 120 volts

so power is given as

P = 1.46 \times 120

P = 175.2 Watt

If a cup of coffee has temperature 95∘C95∘C in a room where the temperature is 20∘C,20∘C, then, according to Newton's Law of Coo
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

T = 76.39°C

Explanation:

given,

coffee cup temperature = 95°C

Room temperature= 20°C

expression

T( t ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}

temperature at t = 0

T( 0 ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-0}{50}}

T(0) = 95°C

temperature after half hour of cooling

T( t ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}

t = 30 minutes

T( 30 ) = 20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-30}{50}}

T( 30 ) = 20 + 75 \times 0.5488

T(30) = 61.16° C

average of first half hour will be equal to

T = \dfrac{1}{30-0}\int_0^30(20 + 75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}})\ dt

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[(20t - \dfrac{75 e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}}{\dfrac{1}{50}})]_0^30

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[(20t - 3750e^{\dfrac{-t}{50}}]_0^30

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[(20\times 30 - 3750 e^{\dfrac{-30}{50}} + 3750]

T = \dfrac{1}{30}[600 - 2058.04 + 3750]

T = 76.39°C
