Surfactants, or wetting agents, are chemicals that are used in detergents. These chemicals interfere with hydrogen bonding betwe

en water molecules to allow water to more easily penetrate the small spaces between the fibers in cloth.
If an accident released these substances into a pond, what danger would they most likely pose to living things in the pond?

A)The water in the pond would warm and cool more easily.

B)Plants on the bottom of the lake would die because ice would sink.

C)Insects would have trouble walking on the water.

D)The water would be able to dissolve fewer nutrients.

Which illustration represent the substance at a higher temperature? Explain.

mamaluj [8]

The addition of heat energy to a system always causes the temperature of that system to increase. This is always true because you are adding heat of a substance to increase its temperature. For example, you are going to drink a cup of coffee. And you wanted it hot to boost your attention. So you have to use hot water. In order for your water to become hot or warm, you need boil it in a kettle. Note that you are going to use an electric stove. The electric stove gets it energy from the source giving it a hotter temperature to the water in the kettle. You are applying heat energy to warm the water. So, the statement is true.

Difference between freefall and weightlessness.

Margaret [11]

Answer:

Differences between freefall and weightlessness are as follows:

<h3><u>Freefall</u></h3>

When a body falls only under the influence of gravity, it is called free fall.
Freefall is not possible in absence of gravity.
A body falling in a vacuum is an example of free fall.

<h3><u>Weightlessness</u></h3>

Weightlessness is a condition at which the apparent weight of body becomes zero.
Weightlessness is possible in absence of gravity.
A man in a free falling lift is an example of weightlessness.

Hope this helps....

Good luck on your assignment....

Returning once again to our table top example of a horizontal mass on a low-friction surface with m = 0.254 kg and k = 10.0 N/m

Julli [10]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 0.254 kg

Spring constant [tex[\omega_{0}= 10.0\ N/m[/tex]

Force = 0.5 N

y = 0.628

We need to calculate the A and d

Using formula of A and d

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{F_{0}}{m}}{\sqrt{(\omega_{0}^2-\omega^{2})^2+y^2\omega^2}}$ .....(I)

$tan d=\dfrac{y\omega}{(\omega^2-\omega^2)}$ ....(II)

Put the value of $\omega=0.628\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-0.628)^2+0.628^2\times0.628^2}}$

$A=0.0198$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times0.628}{((10.0^2-0.628)^2)}$

$d=0.0023$

Put the value of $\omega=3.14\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-3.14)^2+0.628^2\times3.14^2}}$

$A=0.0203$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times3.14}{((10.0^2-3.14)^2)}$

$d=0.0120$

Put the value of $\omega=6.28\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-6.28)^2+0.628^2\times6.28^2}}$

$A=0.0209$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times6.28}{((10.0^2-6.28)^2)}$

$d=0.0257$

Put the value of $\omega=9.42\ rad/s$ in equation (I) and (II)

$A=\dfrac{\dfrac{0.5}{0.254}}{\sqrt{(10.0^2-9.42)^2+0.628^2\times9.42^2}}$

$A=0.0217$

From equation (II)

$tan d=\dfrac{0.628\times9.42}{((10.0^2-9.42)^2)}$

$d=0.0413$

Hence, This is the required solution.
