This is a straightforward question related to the surface energy of the droplet.
<span>You know the surface area of a sphere is 4π r² and its volume is (4/3) π r³. </span>
<span>With a diameter of 1.4 mm you have an original droplet with a radius of 0.7 mm so the surface area is roughly 6.16 mm² (0.00000616 m²) and the volume is roughly 1.438 mm³. </span>
<span>The total surface energy of the original droplet is 0.00000616 * 72 ~ 0.00044 mJ </span>
<span>The five smaller droplets need to have the same volume as the original. Therefore </span>
<span>5 V = 1.438 mm³ so the volume of one of the smaller spheres is 1.438/5 = 0.287 mm³. </span>
<span>Since this smaller volume still has the volume (4/3) π r³ then r = cube_root(0.287/(4/3) π) = cube_root(4.39) = 0.4 mm. </span>
<span>Each of the smaller droplets has a surface area of 4π r² = 2 mm² or 0.0000002 m². </span>
<span>The surface energy of the 5 smaller droplets is then 5 * 0.000002 * 72.0 = 0.00072 mJ </span>
<span>From this radius the surface energy of all smaller droplets is 0.00072 and the difference in energy is 0.00072- 0.00044 mJ = 0.00028 mJ. </span>
<span>Therefore you need roughly 0.00028 mJ or 0.28 µJ of energy to change a spherical droplet of water of diameter 1.4 mm into 5 identical smaller droplets. </span>
Answer:
They're called Jovian planets
Answer:
C. glaciers
Explanation:
Glaciers are a part of the hydrosphere
The hydrosphere is the amount of water on the earth. It includes water in the different states found on the earth surface and within the subsurface. Water does exists as solids, liquids and in vapor form on earth.
- Glacier is the solid form of water on the earth crust.
- It is a significant part of the hydrosphere.
- Most glaciers are found around the polar regions and high altitude zones on the earth.
- It is an important source of fresh water for the ecosystem
