Relative density is defined as:
dr = ds / dw
where:
dr: relative density
ds: density of the substance.
dw: density of water.
In this case we have the relative density of oak wood:
dr = 0.64.
We want to find the density of the substance: ds
Therefore we need to know the density of water in the cgs unit system:
dw = 1g / c ^ 3
Finally:
ds = dr * dw
ds = 0.64 * 1 g / cm ^ 3
ds = 0.64 g / c ^ 3
The density of the oak wood in cgs is 0.64 g / cm ^ 3
Answer:
y = 27 cm
Explanation:
given,
After 11 hours of burning height of candle is 27.9 cm
After 30 hours of burning height of candle is 26 cm
height after 20 hour = ?
the candle height decreases linearly
using linear equation
y = m x+ c
27.9 = m (11 ) + C.......(1)
26 = m (30) + C..............(2)
on solving equation (1) and (2)
1.9 = -19 m
m = -0.1
from equation 2
26 = -3 + C
C = 29
y = m x + 29
at 20 hour
y = -0.1× 20 + 29
y = 27
height of candle after 20 hours is 27 cm.
Answer:
Nitric acid, also known as aqua fortis and spirit of niter, is a highly corrosive mineral acid. The pure compound is colorless, but older samples tend to acquire a yellow cast due to decomposition into oxides of nitrogen and water. Most commercially available nitric acid has a concentration of 68% in water.
Explanation:
-A photon travels, on average, a particular distance, d, before being briefly absorbed and released by an atom, which scatters it in a new random direction.
-Given d and the speed of light, c, you can figure out the average time step and space step size (how often the photon “steps” and how far it “steps” each time).
-The size of the Sun is figured in terms of step size. Some surprisingly tricky math happens, involving “Brownian motion” and probabilities. Finally,
-The average time it would take to get to the surface of the Sun is found.
The nervous system is a complex collection of nerves and specialized cells known as neurons that transmit signals between different parts of the body.
The somatic system consists of nerves that connect the brain and spinal cord with muscles and sensory receptors in the skin.
The basic unit of the nervous system is the "nerve cell," called "neuron
