Easy. It oxidized. Its called verdigris. That is the name of the pigment that turns the copper green.

<span>It reacted with the water and water vapor and oxygen in the air, causing it to rust, and form copper oxide.
Hope this helps!

A scuba diver has his lungs filled to half capacity (3 liters) when 10 m below the surface. If the diver holds his breath while
rjkz [21]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply Boyle's law in which it is specified that

P_1V_1 =P_2 V_2

Where,

P_1 and V_1 are the initial pressure and volume values

P_2 and V_2 are the final pressure volume values

The final pressure here is the atmosphere, then

P_2 = 101325 \approx 1*10^5Pa

h = 10m

\rho_w = 1000kg/m^3

V_1 = 3.0L

Pressure at the water is given by,

P_1 = P_2 -\rho gh

P_1 = 1*10^5 +1000*9.8*10 =198000Pa

Using Boyle equation we have,

V_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{P_2}

V_2 = \frac{198000*3*10^5}{10^5}

V_2 = 5.9L

Therefore the volume of the lungs at the surface is 5.9L

2) A man squeezes a pin between his thumb and finger, as shown in Fig. 6.1.
Salsk061 [2.6K]
<h3>pressure = force / area</h3>

<h3>force = 84 N</h3><h3>pressure = 6 × 10 - 5 = 55 m2</h3>

<h3>pressure = 84 / 55</h3>

<h3>pressure = 1.53 pascals</h3>

hope that helps and please tell me if i am wrong :)

Suppose the foreman had released the box from rest at a height of 0.25 m above the ground. What would the crate's speed be when
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

v = 2.21 m/s

Explanation:

The foreman had released the box from rest at a height of 0.25 m above the ground.

We need to find the speed of the crate when it reaches the bottom of the ramp. Let v is the velocity at the bottom of the ramp. It can be calculated using conservation of energy as follows :

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 0.25} \\\\v=2.21\ m/s

So, its velocity at the bottom of the ramp is 2.21 m/s.

Fred wants to summarize mitosis in the cell cycle. Which statement describes mitosis?
salantis [7]
The statement that most accurately describes mitosis simply is <span>that mitosis is a type of cell division in which one cell (the mother) divides to produce two new cells (the daughters) that are genetically identical to itself</span>. This is the most basic textbook definition, that is summary, of what the mitosis is.

A hockey stick strikes a hockey puck of mass 0.17 kg. If the force exterted on the hockey puck is 35.0 N and there is a force of
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

a=190\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Mass of a hockey puck, m = 0.17 kg

Force exerted by the hockey puck, F' = 35 N

The force of friction, f = 2.7 N

We need to find the acceleration of the hockey puck.

Net force, F=F'-f

F=35-2.7

F=32.3 N

Now, using second law of motion,

F = ma

a is the acceleration of the hockey puck

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{32.3}{0.17}\\\\a=190\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the hockey puck is 190\ m/s^2.
