Imagine you are in a small boat on a small pond that has no inflow or outflow. If you take an anchor that was sitting on the flo

or of the boat and lower it over the side until it sits on the ground at the bottom of the pond, will the water level rise slightly, stay the same, or lower slightly?Two students, Ian and Owen, are discussing this. Ian says that the anchor will still displace just as much water when it is sitting on the bottom of the pond as it does when it is in the boat. After all, adding the anchor to the boat causes the water level in the lake to rise, and so would immersing the anchor in the pond. So Ian reasons that both displacements would be equal, and the lake level remains unchanged.

Answer;

The pond's water level will fall.

Explanation;

Archimedes principle explains that a floating body will displace the amount of water that weighs the same as it, whereas a body resting on the bottom of the water displaces the amount of water that is equal to the body's volume.

When the anchor is in the boat it is in the category of floating body and when it is on the bottom of the pond it is in the second category.

Since anchors are naturally heavy and denser than water, the amount of water displaced when the anchor is in the boat is greater than the amount of water displaced when the anchor is on the bottom of the pond since the way anchors are doesn't make for them to have considerable volume.

When the anchor is dropped to the bottom of the pond, the water level will therefore fall. If the anchor doesn't reach the bottom it is still in the floating object category and there will be no difference to the water level, but once it touches the bottom of the pond, the water level of the pond drops.

Hope this Helps!!!

It is definitely letter D. <span>A1 and B1 are like poles, but there is not enough information to tell whether they are north poles or south poles.

A1 and B1 is either both north poles or both south poles. Repulsion of both magnets says it all--like poles always repel while opposite poles always attract. Thus, the best conclusion to this would be choice D.</span>

What visible signs indicate a precipitation reaction when two solutions are mixed?
Illusion [34]

Formation of an insoluble solid

Explanation:

One of the remarkable visible signs that indicates a precipitation reaction when two solutions are mixed is the formation of an insoluble solid. The insoluble solid formed is the precipitate.

  • Precipitates usually forms in single replacement reactions and double replacement or double decomposition reactions.
  • They form when two soluble compounds react. One of the product is an insoluble solid in the solution called the precipitate.
  • The solubility table helps to predict whether precipitates forms in a reaction.

A hot (70°C) lump of metal has a mass of 250 g and a specific heat of 0.25 cal/g⋅°C. John drops the metal into a 500-g calorimet
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

d. 37 °C

Explanation:

m_{m} = mass of lump of metal = 250 g

c_{m} = specific heat of lump of metal  = 0.25 cal/g°C

T_{mi} = Initial temperature of lump of metal = 70 °C

m_{w} = mass of water = 75 g

c_{w} = specific heat of water = 1 cal/g°C

T_{wi} = Initial temperature of water = 20 °C

m_{c} = mass of calorimeter  = 500 g

c_{c} = specific heat of calorimeter = 0.10 cal/g°C

T_{ci} = Initial temperature of calorimeter = 20 °C

T_{f} = Final equilibrium temperature

Using conservation of heat

Heat lost by lump of metal = heat gained by water + heat gained by calorimeter

m_{m} c_{m} (T_{mi} - T_{f}) = m_{w} c_{w} (T_{f} - T_{wi}) +  m_{c} c_{c} (T_{f} - T_{ci}) \\(250) (0.25) (70 - T_{f} ) = (75) (1) (T_{f} - 20) + (500) (0.10) (T_{f} - 20)\\T_{f} = 37 C
