We simply asked to name three uses for mercury.
The most common and well-known use of mercury is the production of thermometers. It's property to stay liquid at room temperature makes it ideal for a temperature indicator. However, the use of mercury is thermometers has been phased out due to health hazards.
It is also used to form an amalgam which is the result of its combination with silver or gold. Mercury has been used to mine gold and silver. This application has also been phased out.
Today's use of mercury includes mercury-vapor lamps which are the bright lamps used in high-ways.

Two rocks weighing 5 Newtons and 10 Newtons are dropped simultaneously from the same height onto a Coyote. After three seconds o
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

<h2>Potential energy lost by 10 N rock will be greater</h2>

Explanation:

Two rocks of 5N and 10N falls from the same height . Thus they will loose the potential energy.

The potential energy lost = mass x acceleration due to gravity x height

The potential energy lost by first 5 N rock = 5 h

Because weight of rock m g = 5 N

Similarly , the potential energy lost by 10 N Rock = 10 h

here weight of rock m g = 10 N

Thus comparing these two , the potential energy lost by 10 N rock is greater than that of 5 N rock .

Each of the four expansion models (recollapsing, critical, coasting, and accelerating) predict different ages for the universe,
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

This is because the age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

Explanation:

The age of the universe is determined by the pace of expansion in the past, and each model forecasts a different pace.

This is due to the fact that the expansion rate in the coasting model is constant and never changes. Because the cosmos is growing faster now than during the old days, recollapsing and critical models give shorter ages. According to the accelerating model, the universe is growing at a slower rate currently than in the past, implying an older age.
