Friction occurs when a swimmer pushes through the water to swim.

Hope this helps:)

An equal and opposite reaction force is exerted on the swimmer by the water, propelling the swimmer in the direction opposite to his push.
Also, he usually gets his hair wet.

a 100g ice cube at 0 degrees celsius is placed in 650 grams of water at 25 degrees celsius. When the mixture reaches equillibriu

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The latent heat of fusion of water is 334.88 Joules per gram of water.

Explanation:

Let the latent heat of ice be 'x' J/g

1) Thus heat absorbed by 100 gram of ice to get converted into water equals

$Q_1=100\times x$

2) heat energy required to raise the temperature of water from 0 to 25 degree Celsius equals

$Q_2=100\times 4.186\times 11=4604.6Joules$

Thus total energy needed equals $Q_1+Q_2=100x+4604.6$

3) Heat energy released by the decrease in the temperature of water from 25 to 11 degree Celsius is

$Q_3=650\times 4.186\times (25-11)\\\\Q_{3}=38092.6Joules$

Now by conservation of energy we have

$Q_1+Q_2=Q_3\\\\100x+4604.6=38092.6\\\\\therefore x=\frac{38092.6-4604.6}{100}=334.88J/g$

What is the correct equation for calculating the average atomic mass for 3 isotopes? (pls be 100%of your answer pls no guessing)

mariarad [96]

Answer:

The correct equation for measuring the average microscopic weight for 3 isotopes is multiply the rate of abundance by each weight and add them.

Explanation:

To calculate the average microscopic mass of element using weights and relative abundance we have to follow the following steps.

Take the correct weight of each isotope (that will be in decimal form)

Multiply the weight of each isotope by its abundance

Add each of the results together.

This gives the required average microscopic weight of the three isotopes.

4. How much time does it take for a student running at a speed of 5 m/s to cover a distance of 2,000 m?

Monica [59]

Answer:

6 Minutes 40 Seconds or 400 Seconds

Explanation:

Time to cover a distance of 5m = 1 Second

Time to cover a distance of 2000m = 2000÷5

= 400 Seconds

After converting 400 Seconds into minutes it will become 6 minutes 40 seconds.

552000 in scientific notation

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

5.52 × 10 to the 5th power (100000) . In scientific notation you need to have a decimal numver times 10 to the power of something so you can divide 552000 by 10 5 times. So in order to get 552000 you need to have 10 to the 4th power and 5.52

A body weighs 100newtons when submerged in water. calculate the upthrust action on the body

Andrews [41]

Answer:

Upthrust = 20 N

Explanation:

The question says that "A body weighs 100N in air and 80N when submerged in water. Calculate the upthrust acting on the body ?"

Upthrust is defined as the force when a body is submerged in liquid, then liquid applies a force on it.

ATQ,

Weight of body in air is 100 N

Weight of body in water is 80 N

Upthrust is equal to the weight of body in air minus weight of body in water.

Upthrust = 100 N - 80 N

Upthrust = 20 N

So, 20 N of upthrust is acting on the body.
