The liquid in a graduated cylinder curves up at the edge where the liquid meets the wall of the cylinder. This curve in the liquid is called the meniscus and is used to determine the volume of liquid in a graduated cylinder by observing the measurement tick closest to the bottom of the meniscus.

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

$t=5.84\times 10^{-5}s$

Explanation:

First rearrange the whole equation by keeping t in one side and rest parameters in another side of equation
Then plug-in all the given values for each parameters and get the solution

$ln(\frac{A}{B})=-kt$

or, $t=\frac{1}{-k}\times ln(\frac{A}{B})$

Now plug-in all given values:

$t=\frac{1}{-4.80\times 10^{4}s^{-1}}\times ln(\frac{1.00\times 10M}{1.65\times 10^{2}M})$

So, $t=5.84\times 10^{-5}s$

True or False: The moon's gravity affects the oceans nearest the moon because the moon's gravity pulls water into a tidal bulge.

Mashcka [7]

Answer: The moon's gravitational pull generates something called the tidal force. The tidal force causes Earth—and its water—to bulge out on the side closest to the moon and the side farthest from the moon. These bulges of water are high tides
