Humid air is lighter, so it has lower pressure.

Answer:<span>Humid air is lighter, so it has lower pressure.

The reason is the molecules of water are H2O, whose molar mass is 18 g/mol.

These molecules displaces molecules of N2 and O2, whose molar masses are:

N2: 2*14g/mol = 28 g/mol, and
O2: 2*16g/mol = 32 g/mol.

Then molecules of 28g/mol and 32 g/mol are being replaced with molecules of 18g/mol, leading to a lower weight of the same volume of air, which results in lower pressure.

Answer:

D

Explanation:

f = ma

2 x 12 = 24

answer could differ since it's rolling down a ramp. if an angle is given our approach differs.

The information on a can of soda indicates that the can contains 355 mL. The mass of a full can of soda is 0.369 kg, while an em

Vilka [71]

Answer:

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

$s=0.9955$

Explanation:

Given:

volume of liquid content in the can, $v_l=0.355\ L=3.55\times 10^{-4}\ L$

mass of filled can, $m_f=0.369\ kg$

weight of empty can, $w_c=0.153\ N$

<u>So, mass of the empty can:</u>

$m_c=\frac{w_c}{g}$

$m_c=\frac{0.153}{9.81}$

$m_c=0.015596\ kg$

<u>Hence the mass of liquid(soda):</u>

$m_l=m_f-m_c$

$m_l=0.369-0.015596$

$m_l=0.3534\ kg$

<u>Therefore the density of liquid soda:</u>

$\rho=\frac{m_l}{v_l}$ (as density is given as mass per unit volume of the substance)

$\rho=\frac{0.3534}{3.55\times 10^{-4}}$

$\rho=995.50\ kg.m^{-3}$

<u>Specific weight of the liquid soda:</u>

$\bar w=\frac{m_l.g}{v_l}=\rho.g$

$\bar w=995.5\times 9.81$

$\bar w=9765.887\ N.m^{-3}$

Specific gravity is the density of the substance to the density of water:

$s=\frac{\rho}{\rho_w}$

where:

$\rho_w=$ density of water

$s=\frac{995.5}{1000}$

$s=0.9955$

What is the acceleration of a car that goes from 0 to 20m/s in 7 seconds?

nadezda [96]

Answer:

2m/s^2

Explanation:

Clculate the acceleration:

V = u +at

20m/s = 0 + a*10s

a = 20m//10s

a = 2m/s²

From the data given , it is not possible to calculate the displacement , because no direction of motion is given

But it is possible to calculate the distance travelled

Distance = ut + ½ *a*t²

distance = 0 + ½ * 2m/s * 10²s

distance = 100m
