Write the function of alcohol in a alcohol thermometer.​

Physics
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Ethanol-filled thermometers are used in preference to mercury for meteorological measurements of minimum temperatures and can be used down to −70 °C (−94 °F). The physical limitation of the ability of a thermometer to measure low temperature is the freezing point of the liquid used.

4. What happens to the composition of an atom to cause it to become positively or negatively charged?
MakcuM [25]
In an atom, you have three particles: protons, electrons, and neutrons. 

When you add or subtract electrons from an atom, it means that there are either more protons than electrons (positively charged) or there are more electrons than protons (negatively charged).

You cannot add or subtract protons since they are the atomic number, which means the number of protons determines the element. Neutrons have a neutral charge, so they wouldn't affect the charge at all.

A person uses a surfboard to ride every 30th wave crest towards the beach. The wave crest travels at a speed of 1.6m/s and the d
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

8

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf................ Equation 1

Where v = velocity/ speed of the wave, λ = wave length of the wave, f = number of waves the person surf in one seconds.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 1.6 m/s, λ = 24 m

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 1.6/24

f = 0.0667 wave/seconds.

If,

in one seconds, the person surf a total wave crest of 0.0667

Therefore,

in one hours, he will surf a total wave crest of (0.0667×60×60) = 240 waves crest

He rides for every 30th wave crest,

Hence,

number of wave crest the person surf in one hour = 240/30 = 8

A car was traveling at 20m/s and slammed on the brakes causing the car to decelerate at a rate of -2.5 m/s^2 before coming to a
Taya2010 [7]

Answer: 160 m

Explanation: First find time or t using the formula for acceleration:

a = vf - vi / t

So t is equal to:

t = vf - vi / a

= 0 m/s - 20 m/s / -2.5 m/s²

= 8 s

To find the distance use the formula for velocity:

v = d / t

Derive for d:

d = v x t

= 20 m/s x 8 s

= 160 m
