The amusement park will be located in a hot climate. The engineers want to select a material for the giant slide that will prevent the surface from getting too hot. Based on the specific heat values, what material would be the best choice? A.Plastic, because it takes more energy to raise its temperature B.Iron, because it takes more energy to raise its temperature C.Plastic, because it takes less energy to raise its temperature D.Iron, because it less energy to raise its temperature

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer would be plastic because it takes more energy to raise its temperature.

The specific heat capacity of a substance is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of the substance by one degree. The more the specific heat capacity of a substance, the more the heat required to raise its temperature.

The specific heat capacity of plastics is generally more than that of metals. Hence, metals will get heated faster than plastics under the same condition. More energy would be needed to raise the temperature of plastics when compared to metals.

the correct option is A.

7. The Nazca Plate is bounded on the west by the Pacific Plate and to the south by the Antarctic Plate through the East Pacific Rise

8.Convection currents in the mantle drive plate tectonics. Convection is the reason for ocean currents. Ocean currents result from two processes - the action of wind on the surface of the water, and from variation in water temperature that causes movement.

Both the mantle and ocean experience the heat transfer due to bulk movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids, including molten rock; this is called, again, convection.

An apple farmer notices that two of his trees produce particularly sweet apples. The farmer thinks that these sweeter apples would sell very well andcould make him a lot of money. He uses a Q-tip to pollinate the flowers of the sweet apple tree with pollen from the other sweet apple tree's flowers. He then takes the seeds from the fruit that they produce and grows a new field of trees from them. Almost all of these new trees make very sweet apples like the first two trees did.

Answers

Answer:

It is a right method for making a variety.

Explanation:

This is the right method for making sweet apples variety because in apple, cross pollination occurs and for making a new variety self pollination is the best way to prevent impurities in making a new variety. Due to self pollination, the farmer gain the sweet apple variety which help them to make more money by selling these sweet apple because of its demand.

Can someone explain question 4?

Answers

Over time, as oxygen levels decrease, CO2 levels increase. Respiration is correct as it uses oxygen as a reactant and releases CO2 as a byproduct.

When the water availability of a plant's environment decreases, the plant can respond by closing its stomata. This reduces the amount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration. Closing the stomata also reduces the amount of carbon dioxide that the plant can take in through its leaves, which will most likely result in A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis. B. no change in the cellular processes of the plant. C. an increased rate of photosynthesis. D. an increased rate of cellular respiration.

Answers

Answer:

A. a decreased rate of photosynthesis.

Explanation:

Stomata is a structure in the leaves of higher plants, which they use majorly for the purpose of gas exchange. However, the process whereby plant loses water called transpiration also occurs via the stomata. In a situation whereby the availability of water in a plant's environment is low, the plant responds by closing its stomata in order to conserve water (reduce the amount of water that the plant loses through its leaves due to transpiration).

Closing the stomata by plants means not allowing ample carbon dioxide (CO2), which is needed for the process of photosynthesis to occur, to enter the plant. This will most likely result in a DECREASED RATE OF PHOTOSYNTHESIS.

O C. (a cosB, a sinB)
O D. (a cosc, b sinC)

Answer:c

Explanation:because cosin of b is c

(a cosc, b sinC) pairs represents the vertex A in this diagram. Hence option D is correct.

What is Vertex ?

In geometry, a vertex (in plural form: vertices or vertexes) is a point where two or more curves, lines, or edges meet. As a consequence of this definition, the point where two lines meet to form an angle and the corners of polygons and polyhedral are vertices.

The vertex of an angle is the point where two rays begin or meet, where two line segments join or meet, where two lines intersect (cross), or any appropriate combination of rays, segments, and lines that result in two straight sides meeting at one place.

In a polygon, a vertex is called "convex" if the internal angle of the polygon is less than π radians otherwise, it is called concave.

Hence option D is correct.

a. The reactants of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration.
b. Photosynthesis produces light energy while cellular respiration produces chemical energy.
c. The products of photosynthesis are the reactants of cellular respiration.
d. Photosynthesis and cellular respiration use light energy to convert to chemical energy.

Answers

Answer:

Photosynthesis converts carbon dioxide and water into oxygen and glucose. Glucose is used as food by the plant and oxygen is a by-product. Cellular respiration converts oxygen and glucose into water and carbon dioxide. Water and carbon dioxide are by- products and ATP is energy that is transformed from the process.
