4 0

Answer:

Complete answer: We boil the leaf in alcohol when we are checking it for starch to eradicate chlorophyll, which is the green pigment present in leaves. ... Hence to dissolve the chlorophyll or the green pigment present in the leaf we boil the leaf in alcohol when we are testing it for starch.

Hope this helps! Have a great day!

Listed following are three possible models for the long-term expansion (and possible contraction) of the universe in the absence
sineoko [7]

Answer:

From smallest ratio to the largest ratio:

Coasting Universe - Critical Universe - Recollapsing Universe(From left to right)

Explanation:

The coasting universe is one that expands at a constant rate given by the Hubble constant throughout all of cosmic time. It has a ratio of actual density to critical density that is less than 1

The critical universe is one that is at balance with no expansion .I.e. the actual density and the critical density are equal, which makes the ratio of actual density to critical density to be equal to 1

Recollapsing Universe: The expansion of the universe reverses in the future and the universe eventually recollapses. The recollapsing universe has the ratio of the actual density to the critical density to be greater than 1

Which of the following is most closely related to the specific heat of a substance?A. its temperatureB. its melting pointC. its
swat32

Answer:

option (C)

Explanation:

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of substance of unit mass by unit degree is called specific heat of that substance.

Its SI unit is Joule / Kg °C.

Every material has a constant value of specific heat.

So, option (c) is correct.

Calculate the gravitational potential energy is a bicycle of mass 20kg and its rider of mass 50kg cycle to the top of a hill 120
Travka [436]

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Energy can be calculated with the following formula:

mgh

Where m is mass, g is Gravitational Field Strength, and h is height. GFS on Earth is always 9.81, the combined mass of the cyclist and the bicycle is 70, and the height is 120. Multiplying these values together, we get:

82,404J.

Farmer Tamar airlifted her sheep from 1000 meters to 1,200 meters
attashe74 [19]

Question

What was the change in potential energy of the sheep?

Answer:

1962(m) J

Explanation:

Potential energy is given by

PE=mgh

Change in potential energy is given by

∆PE=mg(h2-h1)

Where ∆PE is the change in potential eneegy, g is acceleration due to gravity, h2 is final height and h1 is the initial height.

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g, 1200 m for h2 and 1000 m for h1 then

∆PE=m*9.81(1200-1000)=1962m Joules

Since we are not given the mass of rhe sheep, the answer will be 1962(m) Joules
