If 1000. ml of linseed oil has a mass of 929 g, calculate the density of linseed oil
Ierofanga [76]
<span>0.929 g/ml Density in this case is defined as mass per volume. Or in other words, mass divided by volume. So you simply divide 929 grams by 1000 ml. Giving 929 g / 1000 ml = 929/1000 g/ml = 0.929 g/ml</span>

Mrs. Allen is about to have another baby. She already has three daughters. What is the probability that her fourth child will al
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The probability her 4th child will be a girl is 0.5

Explanation:

during pregnancy or child birth, the gender of a baby is not affected by the gender of the previous baby in the womb. Rather it is determined by the type of chromosomes supplied by the father of the baby.

If X chromosomes are supplied, a girl will be born because the baby will have xx chromosomes. If Y chromosomes are supplied, the baby will have YY chromosomes which means that he is a boy.

Hence there are equal chances of the baby being a boy or a girl, each time a woman is pregnant. The probability of the baby being  a boy or a girl is the same and it 0.5

When Rutherford's coworkers bombarded gold foil with a particles, they obtained results that overturned the existing (Thomson) m
balu736 [363]

Explanation:

Thomson model compared the structure of the atom with a watermelon in which the red portion signifies the positive charge and the electrons which are negatively charged are embedded in this portion as seeds are embedded in the watermelon.

<u>The structure was not able to explain the stability of the atom and also the Rutherford experiment which is:</u>

Rutherford conducted an experiment in which he took a thin gold particle film on which he passes alpha- particles. He noticed that:

  • Most of the alpha particles get through the film and can be detected by the detector.
  • Around small portion of the alpha particle deflected at small angles.
  • A very very few alpha particle (approximately 1 out of 1 million alpha particles) just retraced their path which means come back from the center.

He concluded that:

Most of space of atom is empty and in center of atom , there is solid mass which is cause of alpha particles to come back. He gave term nucleus to this solid mass.

When you get into a car with hot black leather in the middle of the summer and it hurts your skin when you sit, this is an examp
Gennadij [26K]

Heat can be transferred from one object to another in 3 different ways.

1) Conduction : This is the mode of transfer of heat through solid medium.

Example : A metal rod getting hot when hold over a flame.

2) Convection : This is the mode of transfer of heat through liquids

Example : Boiling of water.

3) Radiation : This type of heat transfer does not require any medium.

Example : When we stand close to a campfire, we feel warmer. Here the heat travels through air.

In the given problem, when a person gets into a car with hot black leather, his skin comes in contact with the hot object. Here the heat gets transferred through the skin which is a solid medium.

Therefore this is an example of conduction.
