What happens to the density of a fluid as it temperature increases/decreases?

1 answer:

4 0

Let's look at the density of water at 25 deg C and compare that to a higher temperature, 80 deg C. The density decreases from 0.9970 g/mL to 0.9718 as it is heated. This makes sense because, as heat is added to the liquid water, there is greater kinetic energy of the molecules and there are also more vibrations of the water molecules. Together these mean that each H2O unit in liquid water takes up more space as the temperature increases.

A spherical shell contains three charged objects. The first and second objects have a charge of − 14.0 nC and 33.0 nC , respecti

matrenka [14]

Explanation:

Formula depicting relation between total flux and total charge Q is as follows.

$\phi = \frac{Q}{\epsilon_{o}}$ (Gauss's Law)

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

Q = $\phi \times \epsilon_{o}$

= $-953 Nm^{2}/C \times 8.854 \times 10^{-12}$

= $-8.4 \times 10^{-9} C$

= -8.4 nC

Therefore, when the unknown charge is q then,

-14.0 nC + 33.0 nC + q = -8.4 nC

q = -27.4 nC

Thus, we can conclude that charge on the third object is -27.4 nC.

Photons with the highest energy have the ____

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

D. shortest wavelength

Explanation:

Photons with the highest energy have the shortest wavelength. The shorter the wavelength, the higher the energy of a photon.

A photon is a quantity that transmits electromagnetic energy from one place to the other.

Gamma rays have photons that transmits the highest amount of energy.
The rays have the shortest wavelength and highest frequency of all electromagnetic radiations.

Energy, wavelength and frequency of a photon are connected using the expression:

E = h f = $\frac{hc}{wavelength}$

E is the energy

h is the Planck's constant

f is the frequency.

A 10-ft ladder is leaning against a wall. If the top of the ladder slides down the wall at a rate of 2 ft/sec, how fast is the b

netineya [11]

Answer: The bottom of the ladder is moving at 3.464ft/sec

Explanation:

The question defines a right angle triangle. Therefore using pythagorean

h^2 + l^2 = 10^2 = 100 ...eq1

dh/dt = -2ft/sec

dl/ dt = ?

Taking derivatives of time in eq 1 on both sides

2hdh/dt + 2ldl/dt = 0 ....eq2

Putting l = 5ft in eq2

h^ + 5^2 = 100

h^2 = 25 = 100

h Sqrt(75)

h = 8.66 ft

Put h = 8.66ft in eq2

2 × 8.66 × (-2) + 2 ×5 dl/dt

dl/dt = 17.32 / 5

dl/dt = 3.464ft/sec

A simple pendulum consisting of a bob of mass m attached to a string of length L swings with a period T. If the pendulum is take

Juli2301 [7.4K]

To solve this problem we will use the definition of the period in a simple pendulum, which warns that it is dependent on its length and gravity as follows:

$T =2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Here,

L = Length

g = Acceleration due to gravity

We can realize that $2 \pi$ is a constant so it is proportional to the square root of its length over its gravity,

$T \propto \sqrt{\frac{L}{g}}$

Since the body is in constant free fall, that is, a point where gravity tends to be zero:

$g \rightarrow 0 \Rightarrow T \rightarrow \infty$

The value of the period will tend to infinity. This indicates that the pendulum will no longer oscillate because both the pendulum and the point to which it is attached are in free fall.

Vector A has components Ax=1.30cm, Ay= 2.25cm; vector B has components Bx=4.10cm, By=-3.75cm.

geniusboy [140]

We are given with the x and y components of Vector A and B. In this case, we compute the resultant of both components of each vector. The vector is equal to the square root of the sum of the squares of the components. A is equal to 2.60 cm. B is equal to 5.56 cm. B is found in quadrant Iv and has an angle of 42.447 degrees as a terminal angle. A has an angle of 59.98 degrees.
