Well remember, not all bacteria are bad. Some bacteria are actually kind of harmless and can help you.

Bacteria in your stomach is actually good for you because it helps destroy harmful bacteria by picking at undigested leftovers and micromanaging calories.

Squids and octopuses propel themselves by expelling water. They do this by keeping water in a cavity and then suddenly contracti

liq [111]

Answer:

The speed of water must be expelled at 6.06 m/s

Explanation:

Neglecting any drag effects of the surrounding water we can assume the linear momentum in this case is conserves, that is, the total initial momentum of the octopus and the water kept in it cavity should be equal to the total final linear momentum. That's known as conservation of momentum, mathematically expressed as:

$p_f=p_i$

with Pi the total initial momentum and Pf the final total momentum. The total momentum is the sum of the momentums of the individual objects, in our case the octopus and the mass of water that will be expelled:

$p_{of}+p_{wf}=p_{oi}+p_{wi}$

with Po the momentum of the octopus and Pw the momentum of expelled water. Linear momentum is defined as mass times velocity:

$m_o*v_{of}+m_w*v_{wf}=m_o*v_{oi}+m_w*v_{wi}$

Note that initially the octopus has the water in its cavity and both are at rest before it sees the predator so $v_{oi}=v_{wi} = 0\frac{m}{s}$ :

$m_o*v_{of}+m_w*v_{wf}=0$

We should find the final velocity of water if the final velocity of the octopus is 2.70 m/s, solving for $v_{wf}$ :

$v_{wf}=-\frac{m_o*v_{of}}{m_w}=-\frac{(6.00-1.85)*(2.70)}{1.85}$

$v_{wf}=-6.06\frac{m}{s}$

The minus sign indicates the velocity of the water is opposite the velocity of the octopus.

Which statement best describes an antacid? a)An antacid increases the amount of hydrogen ions b)An antacid neutralizes excess hy

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, An antacid neutralizes excess hydrogen ions.

Explanation:

Antacid neutralizes the acid in the stomach. These are bases/ alkali's. The reaction between an acid and a base in known as neutralization thereby reducing burning sensations produced by the acid.

The antacid when reaches the stomach form gel like composition that lie on the top of food item in the stomach and prevent the oesophagus from the irritation caused by the acid.

You are given five transparent objects: a calcite crystal, a diamond, a piece of window glass, a sample of quartz, and a piece o

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The calcite Crystal can be identified by carrying out an acid test on it. This is done by bringing it in contact with a weak acid which cause crack in it structure. Hence a little of carbondioxide gas is released.

Since diamond is the hardest object,it can be identified on a Mohs scale. Likewise it can be tested by bringing it in contact with a newspaper, if the letters on the paper are not seen, that shows it is a pure diamond.

Window glass is identified by the code on it.

While Quartz Crystal is identified by scratch test. When it is used to scratch all other softer stones and metal, it leaves mark on them.
