\. A mixture of gases con-tains oxygen, nitrogen, and water vapor. What physical process could you use to remove the water vapor
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Condensation.

Explanation:

The boiling point of water is much higher than that of either nitrogen or oxygen gas . So when the mixture is condensed  to a temperature lower than

100°C , water vapor will come out first in the form of water leaving other

elements of mixture in gaseous phase. In this way, water vapor will get separated from others.

3) Sam Bass- A desperado whose career inspired ballads.
4) Judge Roy Bean- a legendary frontier judge who ruled by one book and a six-shooter!
5) Colt .45 six-shot revolver invented by Samuel Colt and used throughout the West... extremely popular among cowboys and outlaws alike.
6) Last but definetily not last, "Billy the Kid" (William H. Bonney, 1859-1881) Brooklyn-born gunman of the Wild West. Legendary Outlaw.
There are plenty more facts to talk about but in the interest of time this all I can provide for now. Hope it helps and have a nice day/night :)

A solid block of mass m is suspended in a liquid by a thread. The density of the block is greater than that of the liquid. Initi
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

(C) T

The tension T at equilibrium will be equal to the Buoyant force.

The Buoyant force is given by:

Fb = density x acceleration due to gravity x volume displaced

The change in height doesn't affect the Buoyant force and hence the tension.

(6 points) A cylinder has a radius of 12 mm and a length of 2.5 m. It is made of steel with a thermal conductivity of LaTeX: 53.
deff fn [24]

Answer:

2.46 W

Explanation:

Thermal conductivity k = 53.4 W/m-K

Radius r = 12 mm = 12x10^-3 m

Lenght = 2.5 m

T1 = 361 °C

T2 = 105 ∘C

Area A = ¶r^2 = 3.142 x (12x10^-3)^2

= 0.00045 m^2

Power P = -AkdT/dx

Where dT = 361 - 105 = 256

dx = lenght of heat travel = 2.5 m

P = -0.00045 X 53.4 X (256/2.5)

= -0.024 X 102.4 = -2.46 W

The negative sign indicates that heat is lost from the metal.

A cell phone weighing 80 grams is flying through the air at 15 m/s what is the kinetic energy
hjlf

Answer:

9\:\mathrm{J}

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is given by the following equation:

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2, where m is mass in \mathrm{kg} and v is velocity in \mathrm{m/s}.

Since the cell phone's mass is given in grams, we need to convert this into kilograms:

80\:\mathrm{g}\cdot \frac{1\:\mathrm{kg}}{1000\:\mathrm{g}}=0.08\:\mathrm{kg}.

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the cell phone is:

KE=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.08\cdot 15^2=\fbox{$9\:\mathrm{J}$}.
