Answer:

Petroleum

Explanation:

Water has a boiling point of 100°C meaning it will start to boil once the temperature reach 100° Celsius meanwhile

Petroleum's boiling point will change based on which petroleum product it is.

For example

LPG (which is a petroleum product)will boil at 40°C.

Crazy boy [7]
It would be a really bad idea to eat the snow because you obviously are trying to stay warm right? Well, the best thing to do is melt the snow. However, the process of melting the snow would have a few complications as well. But yes, the latter idea (drinking the snow) is a better idea (not the best).

Rasek [7]

Answer:

99.95%

Explanation:

A double pulsar system named PSR J0737-3039A/B  in Puppis constellation was discovered in the year 2003. Pulsars are second most densest object in the universe after black holes and they emit radio waves at regular intervals. This pair presented a great and natural setup to test the Theory of General Relativity presented by Einstein in 1915. In this theory Einstein had presented a set of equations on how the space-time fabric will be curved because of the very dense objects such as Neutron stars. It also predicted how the gravitational waves are created because of stars orbiting each other.

A team of astrophysicists led by Michael Kramer, conducted a study on how these gravitational waves will impact the time in which the radio waves emitted by pulsars will reach Earth. The result of the study proved the theory of General Relativity to be accurate up to 99.95%.

Consider a very small hole in the bottom of a tank 17.0 cm in diameter filled with water to a heightof 90.0 cm. Find the speed a
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Speed of water, v = 4.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter of the tank, d = 17 cm

It is placed at a height of 90 cm, h = 0.9 m

We need to find the speed at which the water exits the tank through the hole. It can be calculated using the conservation of energy as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh

v=\sqrt{2gh}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.9}

v = 4.2 m/s

So, the speed of water at which the water exits the tank through the hole is 4.2 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

MrRa [10]

Explanation :

Takumi wears sunscreen and a hat each time he works in the yard. This is to protect himself with the strong radiation coming from the sun. UV rays that are coming from the sun are the main cause of skin cancer.

Stochastic effects are the effects that are caused by chance. Cancer is one of the main stochastic effects.

So, the correct option is (b) "the severity of stochastic effects, such as cancer".

A girl rolls a ball up an incline and allows it to return to her. For the angle ! and ball involved, the acceleration of the bal
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

The distance the ball moves up the incline before reversing its direction is 3.2653 m.

The total time required for the ball to return to the child’s hand is 3.2654 s.

Explanation:

When the girl is moving up:

The final velocity (v) = 0 m/s

Initial velocity (u) = 4 m/s

a = -0.25g = -0.25*9.8 = -2.45 m/s². (Negative because it is in opposite of the velocity and also it deaccelerates while going up).

Let time be t  to reach the top.

Using

v = u + a×t

0 = 4 - 2.45*t

t = 1.6327 s

Since, this is the same time the ball will come back. So,

<u>Total time to go and come back = 2* 1.6327 = 3.2654 s </u>

To find the distance, using:

v² = u² + 2×a×s

0² = 4² + 2×(-2.45)×s

s = 3.2653 m

<u>Thus, the distance the ball moves up the incline before reversing its direction is 3.2653 m.</u>
