One of the ways that scientists determine the distance between Earth and other objects in space is to send light waves toward an object and measure how long it takes for the waves to bounce back. If a scientist sends light waves to four different objects in space, which of the following will take the longest to bounce the wave back to Earth?

Answer:

The catapult works when the potential energy stored in a stretched rubber band is converted to kinetic energy when it snaps back to its loose shape, moving the catapult arm—and the projectile! ... The kinetic energy of the catapult will give the projectile a force moving up and away from the catapult.

Explanation:

The entropy of the substance seems to decrease as this substance freezes. Why is this not contradicting the second law of thermodynamics?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

While it is true that a version of the second law of thermodynamics stated with respect to entropy states that the entropy of  a system only increases or remains the same. It never decreases!

It then appears to be a contradiction when the freezing of ice leads to a more ordered structure and a seeming decrease in entropy of the ice as water changes from liquid to solid.

This law of thermodynamics is not violated here because the entropy of the universe increases (freezing is an exothermic process). This outweighs the decrease in entropy of the system hence the change in entropy is positive and the second law of thermodynamics is not violated.

about and today's times? If so, how? If not, explain your thoughts?"

Answers

Answer:

this is based on your opinion but mine is...

Explanation:

Do you think that the role of culture, gender,  and/or race has changed in sclence between the times we are learning  about and today's times? If so, how? If not, explain your thoughts?

Yes by how because Race’ cannot be biologically defined due to genetic variation among human individuals and populations. (A) The old concept of the “five races:” African, Asian, European, Native American, and Oceanian. According to this view, variation between the races is large, and thus, the each race is a separate category. Additionally, individual races are thought to have a relatively uniform genetic identity. (B) Actual genetic variation in humans. Human populations do roughly cluster into geographical regions. However, variation between different regions is small, thus blurring the lines between populations. Furthermore, variation within a single region is large, and there is no uniform identity.

10000 J of heat energy is absorbed per cycle by a diesel engine that is 11% efficient. How much energy does it expel to the environment per cycle? (J)

Answers

Answer:

8900 J

Explanation:

Let heat absorbed be Q1 and heat rejected be Q2.

Q1 = 1000 J, efficiency η = 11% = 0.11

Then, Efficiency of engine can be found be using the following formula,

[tex]\eta = \frac{Q_1-Q_2}{Q_1}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]0.11 = \frac{10000-Q_2}{10000}\\Q_2 = 10000- 1100= 8900 J[/tex]

Therefore, energy does it expels to the environment per cycle = 8900 J

calculate speed and velocity of the following. the race car was moving for 3.7 hours and during that time it traveled a distance of 500 miles south. what is the speed the car was travelling?

Answers

Answer:

v = 135.13 mph

Explanation:

Given that,

The race car was moving for 3.7 hours and during that time it traveled a distance of 500 miles south.

We need to find the speed of the car.

We know that,

Speed = distance/time

So,

[tex]v=\dfrac{500\ miles}{3.7\ h}\\\\v=135.13\ mph[/tex]

So, the speed of the car is equal to 135.13 mph.

“a car is parked uphill on a sloped street. How would you draw the force diagram to illustrate all of the forces acting on this car to keep it parked on the slope?”

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

There are 3 main forces at work here, gravity, normal and friction. The gravity pulls the car straight down and is what keeps the car on the ground. Normal force is straight up from the points where the car is touching, so since the wheels are the only parts of the car touching the street, this is where all the normal force is. Friction force opposes any and all motion, the car wants to slide down the hill and would slide down the hill if there was no friction, so the friction force is in the opposite direction of the cars intended motion.

You're answer would be B.

Explanation:

Fact: A water droplet refracts and disperses the incident sunlight, then reflect it internally and finally refract it again, when it emerges out of water droplet thus acting like a prism.

In Option B, It states: The combination of light and water creates a prismatic

Therefore, This option is true! However, I would say the combination of light and water make more of a chroma effect to water (my opinion)!

ANYONE PLS ASAPPPPPPP

Answers

[tex]\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}[/tex]

Actually Welcome to the concept of surface areas and Volumes.

When the radius is 'r', we get as,

V = 4/3*(π)(r^3)

when the radius is tripled that is '3r' , we get as,

V' = 4/3 (π)(3r)^3

V' = 27*(4/3(π)(r^3))

V' = 27 V

hence the new volume, when radius is tripled, is 27 times greater than the old sphere.

Why does food need to be broken down (made into chyme) in the stomach (Think about the next step in digestion)
Will mark braniest if correct and has clear explanation

Answers

Answer: Carbohydrates , proteins and lipids are large molecules that are needed by the body for growth, repair and metabolism . They are found in our food. These molecules are too large to pass from the intestine into the blood, so digestive enzymes break them down into smaller molecules.

Explanation:

Answer:

Digestion is the mechanical and chemical break down of food into small organic fragments. It is important to break down macromolecules into smaller fragments that are of suitable size for absorption across the digestive epithelium. Large, complex molecules of proteins, polysaccharides, and lipids must be reduced to simpler particles such as simple sugar before they can be absorbed by the digestive epithelial cells. Different organs play specific roles in the digestive process. The animal diet needs carbohydrates, protein, and fat, as well as vitamins and inorganic components for nutritional balance. How each of these components is digested is discussed in the following sections

Oxygen Supply in Submarines Nuclear submarines can stay under water nearly indefinitely because they can produce their own oxygen by electrolysis of water.


How many liters of O2 at 298 K and 1.00 bar are produced in 1.00 hr in an electrolytic cell operating at a current of 0.0200 A?

Answers

Answer:

1.865 * 10^-4 L

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is:

4OH^-(aq) ----->2H2O(l) + O2(g) + 4e

Since one mole of oxygen which occupies 22.4 L is produced in the electrolysis of water by 4 Faraday of electricity as shown in the equation above;

Then;

4 * 96500 C liberates 22.4 L of oxygen

60 * 60 * 0.0200 C will liberate 60 * 60 * 0.0200 *  22.4/4 * 96500

= 1.865 * 10^-4 L

Answers

Answer:

technician A is right

Explanation:

Daytime running lights are auxiliary lights that allow other cars to see us better. They are not intended to illuminate the road, so their intensity is low.

Consequently technician A is right

HID lights are high intensity lights, generally bluish-white in color, yellow lights are halogen lights with lower intensity than HID lights.

Consequently, technician B is wrong
