Answer:

Specific gravity for liquids is nearly always measured with respect to water at its densest

Explanation:

Archy [21]2 years ago

Answer:

Because of it being able to become a gas, a liquid, and solid, and because its used in lots of chemical experiments. (also because its easier to describe it than any other liquid)

Explanation:

1. Water is used in most Chemicals, therefore its being used as a reference material.

2. W

In the chemical equation above, the small number after the O in 1202 represent —
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

G.) The number atoms of that element in the molecule

Explanation:

F is incorrect because the coefficient represents the amount of one type of molecule, not the subscript

G is correct because subscripts represent how many atoms of that element are present in that single molecule

H is incorrect because energy is not represented in this simple type of equation

J is incorrect because it doesn't even make sense

A racecar experiences a centripetal acceleration of 36.0 m/s2 as it travels at a constant speed of 27.0 m/s along a circular arc
alexdok [17]

Answer:

20.25 m

Explanation:

  • <u>Centripetal acceleration </u>is given by; the square of the velocity, divided by the radius of the circular path.

That is;

         <em><u>ac = v²/r</u></em>

<em>         </em><em><u> Where; ac = acceleration, centripetal, m/s², v is the velocity, m/s and r is the  radius, m</u></em>

Therefore;

r = v²/ac

  = 27²/36

  = 20.25 m

Hence the radius is 20.25 meters

An apple is held completely submerged just below the surface of water in a container. The apple is then moved to a deeper point
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

When the apple is held submerged in water , it experiences a buoyant force due to which it floats in water . One has to apply downward force to keep it submerged. The lower the buoyant force , lower the force needed to submerge it in water.

When apple is held at much deeper point , it experience greater pressure due to column of water around it . So its size or its volume decreases . But its weight remains the same . Due to less volume , buoyant force also decreases ( buoyant force is equal to weight of displaced volume of water. )

Due to buoyant force becoming less , force needed on apple  in downward direction will also be less.
