Are volcanoes fed by highly viscous magma a greater threat to life and property than volcanoes supplied with very fluid magma?

Answer:

A volcano fed by highly viscous magma is likely to be a greater threat to life and property than a volcano supplied with very fluid magma because with high viscous magma gas is trapped more in the magma so the gas will build up and then eventually explode, whereas with fluid magma the gas can escape allowing the magma.

Compare the energy consumption of two commonly used items in the household. Calculate the energy used by a 1.40 kW toaster oven,

andrew-mc [135]

Energy = (power) x (time)

-- For the toaster:

Power = 1.4 kW = 1,400 watts

Time = 5.4 minutes = 324 seconds

Energy = (1,400 W) x (324 s) = 453,600 Joules

-- For the CFL bulb:

Power = 11 watts

Time = 10.5 hours = 37,800 seconds

Energy = (11 W) x (37,800 s) = 415,800 Joules

-- The toaster uses energy at 127 times the rate of the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses energy at 0.0079 times the rate of the toaster.

-- The toaster is used for 0.0086 times as long as the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb is used for 116.7 times as long as the toaster.

-- The toaster uses 9.1% more energy than the CFL bulb.

-- The CFL bulb uses 8.3% less energy than the toaster.

How much heat must be added to make a 5g substance with a specific heat of 2 J/gC that has its temperature go up 10 degrees? Q =

zlopas [31]

Answer:

100 Joule

Explanation:

Amount of heat in agiven body is given by Q = m•C•ΔT

where m is the mass of the body

c is the specific heat capacity of body. It is the amount of heat stored in 1 unit weight of body which raises raises the temperature of body by 1 unit of temperature.

ΔT is the change in the temperature of body

___________________________________________

coming back to problem

m = 5g

C = 2J/gC

since, it is given that temperature of body increases by 10 degrees, thus

ΔT = 10 degrees

Using the formula for heat as given

Q = m•C•ΔT

Q = 5* 2 * 10 Joule= 100 Joule

Thus, 100 joule heat must be added to a 5g substance with a specific heat of 2 J/gC to raise its temperature go up by 10 degrees.

Which quantity is most closely related to the speed of gas particles

natali 33 [55]

Temperature is a measure of the energy of molecules and energy is related to speed.

The water in a pot is heated by convection. The water on the bottom will warm up and rise toward the surface and the cooler water will then sink to the bottom where it will be heated. 

Oxygen will form ionic bonds with nitrogen. The others will not by themselves. 

A high pH is indicative of a basic solution. HCl and H2SO4 are both strong acids and will result in a lower (more acidic) pH. Water is the standard. KOH is a strong base and will increase the pH. 

An acidic solid will lower the pH of a solution. pH measures the number of hydrogen ions and a lower pH will mean that there are more H+ ions, but the solid could just have reacted with the OH- to cause the pH to decrease

What is an effect of an object getting wet?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

once light hits a wet shirt, that water layer causes less of the blue shirt's blue wavelengths of light to be reflected toward your eyes and more of the blue light to be refracted, or bounce away from you, back into the fabric.
