What is the anomalous expansivity of water

Physics

1 answer:

7 0

Answer:

The anomalous expansion of water is an abnormal property of water whereby it expands instead of contracting when the temperature goes from 4°C to 0°C, and it becomes less dense. The density becomes less and less as it freezes because molecules of water normally form open crystal structures when in solid form.

A basketball player grabbing a rebound jumps 76.0 cm vertically. How much total time (ascent and descent) does the player spend.

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer: Part(a)=0.041 secs, Part(b)=0.041 secs

Explanation: Firstly we assume that only the gravitational acceleration is acting on the basket ball player i.e. there is no air friction

now we know that

a=-9.81 m/s^2 ( negative because it is pulling the player downwards)

we also know that

s=76 cm= 0.76 m ( maximum s)

using kinetic equation

$v^2=u^2+2as$

where v is final velocity which is zero at max height and u is it initial

hence

$u^2=-2(-9.81)*0.76$

$u=3.8615 m/s\\$

now we can find time in the 15 cm ascent

$s=ut+0.5at^2$

$0.15=3.861*t+0.5*9.81t^2\\$

using quadratic formula

$t=\frac{-3.861+\sqrt{3.86^2-4*0.5*9.81(-0.15)} }{2*0.5*9.81}$

t=0.0409 sec

the answer for the part b will be the same

To find the answer for the part b we can find the velocity at 15 cm height similarly using

$v^2=u^2+2as$

where s=0.76-0.15

as the player has traveled the above distance to reach 15cm to the bottom

$v^2=0^2 +2*(9.81)*(0.76-0.15)$

$v=3.4595$

when the player reaches the bottom it has the same velocity with which it started which is 3.861

hence the time required to reach the bottom 15cm is

$t=\frac{3.861-3.4595}{9.81}$

t=0.0409

True or false The momentum of a 100kg object traveling at 3 m/s is 300 N

melomori [17]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Momentum of an object can be defined as the product of its mass and velocity at which it is travelling. With that in mind, momentum = 3*100=300(kg⋅m/s).

One thing to note is the units mentioned. The SI unit of momentum is kg * m/s as it is the product of mass(kilograms) and velocity(meter per second) and not Newton.

8 The diagram shows four identical spheres placed between two wooden blocks on a ruler.

enyata [817]

The diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

<h3>How to calculate the diameter?</h3>

From the diagram, the first sphere on the ruler is at 4cn and the last sphere is at 12cm.

Therefore, the length will be:

= 12 - 4.

= 8cm

The diameter of one sphere will be:

= Length / 4

= 8/4

= 2

Therefore, the diameter of the sphere is 2cm.

Note that the second question wasn't found online.

3. Will a plant grow higher with more light?

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

When we analyze the sentence we see that this is a hypotype with the growth of plants must behave and it has a prediction included.

Therefore the correct answer is a

Explanation:

In this exercise you are asked to identify the given sentence with a specific part of the scientific method.

Among the parts of the method we have.

* Independent variable . The controlled variable in research

*Dependent variable. The magnitude measured in the experiment

* Control variable. The magnitude that is not controlled

*Experiment. It is the design of the procedure to evaluate the hypothesis

* Hypothesis. It is the assumption with which scientific work begins

* Prediction. It is a consequence of work if the mortgage is correct.

When we analyze the sentence we see that this is a hypotype with the growth of plants must behave and it has a prediction included.

Therefore the correct answer is a
