Which fossil fuel is produced as a by-product that occurs when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions?

Mumz [18]

Bio-gas is the naturally produced fossil fuel, a by-product when bacteria decompose organic material under anaerobic conditions.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Organic matter particularly waste material is broken down by bacteria through fermentation in an environmental condition without any presence of oxygen. This process of decomposition leads to formation of bio-gas with "carbon dioxide and methane" in a 2:3 ratio.

The above biological process is termed as bio-digestion or anaerobic digestion. Methane is flammable and thus bio-gas can be used as "energy source", a waste-to-energy transformation. The remaining decomposed matter is ideal as manure for plants due to its rich nutrient level.

Describe each of the following as a physical or chemical property. a. Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature.b. Apple slice

Cloud [144]

Answer: Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature: Physical property

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid: Physical property

Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: Chemical property

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: Chemical property

Explanation:

Physical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during physical change in which there is alteration in shape, size etc. No new substance gets formed during physical change.

Example: Neon is a colorless gas at room temperature

At room temperature, mercury is a liquid.

Chemical property is defined as the property of a substance which becomes evident during chemical change in which a change in chemical composition takes place. A new substance is formed in these reactions.

Example: Apple slices turn brown when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

Phosphorus will ignite when exposed to air: It undergoes oxidation which is a chemical change

____ is undeniably accepted by scientists all over the world as the primary language of science.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Latin

Explanation:

In order for the scientists to have a common and official name for a particular thing that can be understood by every scientist in the world, a single language has been established for the purpose. The language chosen is the Latin language. The official scientific names are given in this language, so it is a necessity for the scientists to know and understand this language. The terms that are commonly used are regional, and they come in many different languages, which is why this language has been chosen. Occasionally, the ancient Greek language is used as well, though much less than the Latin.

On a vacation flight, you look out the window of the jet and wonder about the forces exerted on the window. Suppose the air outs

user100 [1]

Answer:

A) $\Delta P = 14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa$

B) F = 1632.65 N

Explanation:

Given details

outside air speed is given as $v_2 = 150 m/s$

since inside air is atmospheric , $v_1 = 0 m/s$

a) By using bernoulli equation between outside and inside of flight

$P_1 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2 + \rho gh = P_2 + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 + \rho gh$

$\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho v_2^2 - \frac{1}{2} \rho v_1^2$

$\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} \rho[ v_2^2 -v_1^2]$

$\Delta P = \frac{1}{2} 1.29 [ 150^2 - 0^2]$

$\Delta P = 14512.5 Pa = 14.512 kPa$

b) force exerted on window

Area of window $= 25\times 45 = 1125 cm^2 = 0.1125 m^2$

We know that force is given as

$F = P\times A$

$F = 14512.5 \times 0.1125$

F = 1632.65 N

A thin uniform rod of mass M and length L is bent at its center so that the two segments are now perpendicular to each other. Fi

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

(a) I_A=1/12ML²

(b) I_B=1/3ML²

Explanation:

We know that the moment of inertia of a rod of mass M and lenght L about its center is 1/12ML².

(a) If the rod is bent exactly at its center, the distance from every point of the rod to the axis doesn't change. Since the moment of inertia depends on the distance of every mass to this axis, the moment of inertia remains the same. In other words, I_A=1/12ML².

(b) The two ends and the point where the two segments meet form an isorrectangle triangle. So the distance between the ends d can be calculated using the Pythagorean Theorem:

$d=\sqrt{(\frac{1}{2}L) ^{2}+(\frac{1}{2}L) ^{2} } =\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}L^{2} } =\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } L=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} L$

Next, the point where the two segments meet, the midpoint of the line connecting the two ends of the rod, and an end of the rod form another rectangle triangle, so we can calculate the distance between the two axis x using Pythagorean Theorem again:

$x=\sqrt{(\frac{1}{2}L)^{2}-(\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4}L) ^{2} } =\sqrt{\frac{1}{8} L^{2} } =\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2}} L=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} L$

Finally, using the Parallel Axis Theorem, we calculate I_B:

$I_B=I_A+Mx^{2} \\\\I_B=\frac{1}{12} ML^{2} +\frac{1}{4} ML^{2} =\frac{1}{3} ML^{2}$
