Answer:

4°C

Explanation:

An ice sheet 5m thick covers a lake that is 20m deep. The temperature of the water at the bottom of the lake is 4°C because it is dense, making it easy to sink.

Coefficient of volume expansivity at 20 degree centigrade is 2.1x10^-4​.

Answer:

4°C

Explanation:

Water is densest at 4°C.  Since dense water sinks, the bottom of the lake will be 4°C.

With countercurrent flow, diffusion happened in all regions of the filter. Explain why
jeka94

Answer:

When the blood and the dialysate are flowing in the same direction, as the the dialysate and the blood move away from the region of higher concentration of the urea, to a region distant from the source, the concentration of urea in the blood stream and in the dialysis reach equilibrium and diffusion across the semipermeable membrane stops within the higher filter regions such as II, III, IV or V

However, for counter current flow, as the concentration of the urea in the blood stream becomes increasingly lesser the, it encounters increasingly unadulterated dialysate coming from the dialysate source, such that diffusion takes place in all regions of the filter

a bicycle pump contains 20cm3 of air at a pressure of 100kpa the air is then pumped in a single stroke through a valve into a ty
riadik2000 [5.3K]
If we assume also that the temperature of the air does not change, we can use Boyle's Law:
p₁V₁ = p₂V₂

Now, we know: 
p₁ = 100kPa
V₂ = 100cm³ (the volume of the tyre) 
V₁ = 120cm³ (becuse the air is contained inside the tyre AND the pump)

We can solve for p₂:
p₂ = (p₁V₁)/V₂
    = (100×120)/100
    = 120kPa

Therefore your answer is: 120kPa

During metamorphism, what is the major effect of chemically active fluids?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Option b

Explanation:

Metamorphism is the process where the variation of the geological texture resulting from the different arrangement of the minerals or the variation of minerals in protoliths, i.e., pre- existing rocks take place such that there occurs no change in state of the protolith, i.e., it does not melt into magma.

The change takes place as a result of the presence of chemically active fluids, heat and pressure.

There is a reaction between the chemically active fluid and the rock through which it passes and promotes the movement of the dissolved ions of silicate and promotes the growth of the mineral grains.

A closed, rigid container holding 0.2 moles of a monatomic ideal gas is placed over a Bunsen burner and heated slowly, starting
Georgia [21]

Answer:

a) 2250 J

b) 0 J

c) 2250 J

Explanation:

a) Since, the process is isochoric

the change in internal energy

\Delta U = n C_v(T_f-T_i)

Here, n = 0.2 moles

Cv = 12.5 J/mole.K

We have to find T_f so we can use gas equation as

\frac{P_1V_1}{P_2V_2} =\frac{T_i}{T_f}\\Since, V_1=V_2    [isochoric/process]\\\Rightarrow \frac{P_{atm}}{4P_{atm}} = \frac{300}{T_f} \\\Rightarrow T_f = 1200 K

So,  \Delta U= 0.2\times12.5(1200-300)\\=2250 J

b) Since, the process is isochoric no work shall be done.

c) By first law of thermodynamics we have

\Delta U = Q-W\\Since, W = 0\\\Delta U = Q\\Therefore, Q = 2250 J

Since, Q is positive 2250 J of heat will flow into the system.
