Answer:
B. Observation
Explanation:
Using a thermometer to read the temperature of a solution is tantamount to the making an observation.
Observation are recorded using our senses of sight, taste, earing, feeling etc or by the use of instrument.
Through observation, data is usually collected to make inferences about an experiment. An observation leads to the formulation of a hypothesis which is scientific guess that leads to experimental designs. Conclusions are drawn from the information of data obtained from an experiment.What is happening to the average kinetic energy of the molecules in a pot of water when it is heated on a stove? Explain your answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
The average kinetic energy of molecules in a pot increases when it is heated on a stove . The heat energy is spent to decrease the intermolecular attractive force . The result is increase in kinetic energy due to increase in the velocity of molecules
formula for kinetic energy of one mole of a monoatomic gas
= 3/2 RT
when temperature increases , kinetic energy increases .
A rectangle box was measured with a length of 4cm, width 2cm, and height 2cm. What is the volume of the box?
Answer:
volume is 64
Explanation:
2×2×4×4
=64
Answer:
[tex]V = 16\ cm^3[/tex]
Explanation:
The Volume of a Rectangular Prism
A rectangular prism is also called a rectangular box and has three dimensions all perpendicular to each other.
Given a rectangular prism of length L, width W, and height H, the volume is calculated as:
V = WLH
We are given the dimensions of a rectangular box: L= 4 cm, W = 2 cm, H = 2 cm. Computing the volume:
V = 2 cm * 4 cm * 2 cm
[tex]\mathbf{V = 16\ cm^3}[/tex]
Explain the difference between transverse and longitudinal waves.
A transverse wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction that the wave moves. Suppose that a slinky is stretched out in a horizontal direction across the classroom and that a pulse is introduced into the slinky on the left end by vibrating the first coil up and down. Energy will begin to be transported through the slinky from left to right. As the energy is transported from left to right, the individual coils of the medium will be displaced upwards and downwards. In this case, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction that the pulse moves. This type of wave is a transverse wave. Transverse waves are always characterized by particle motion being perpendicular to wave motion.
A longitudinal wave is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that the wave moves. Suppose that a slinky is stretched out in a horizontal direction across the classroom and that a pulse is introduced into the slinky on the left end by vibrating the first coil left and right. Energy will begin to be transported through the slinky from left to right. As the energy is transported from left to right, the individual coils of the medium will be displaced leftwards and rightwards. In this case, the particles of the medium move parallel to the direction that the pulse moves. This type of wave is a longitudinal wave. Longitudinal waves are always characterized by particle motion being parallel to wave motion.
A force of 49 Newtons is applied to a rock, which causes it to be lifted 2 meters in 5 seconds. How much power is exerted during this time?
Select one:
9.8 W
19.6 W
56.4 W
98 W
Answer: 19.6 watts
=================================================
Explanation:
power = (change in work)/(change in time)
p = w/t
work = force*displacement
w = f*d
So we can say:
p = (f*d)/t
We know the following
f = 49 = applied forced = 2 = displacementt = 5 = change in timeLeading to...
p = (f*d)/t
p = (49*2)/5
p = 98/5
p = 19.6 watts
Side note: 1 watt is equal to 1 joule per second
