- Every year Every second (1 year 365 days).arrow_forwardWhich statement about temperature is TRUE? A small block of aluminum sitting in a beaker of boiling water for several hours will have a different temperature than the boiling water. Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance. Temperature moves from colder objects to hotter objects. A cup of boiling water and a bucket of boiling water will have different temperatures because they have different volumes.arrow_forwardMass and weight are related via the equation W=mg on Earth. Mass is how much matter an object has and weight of mass under a gravitational field (on Earth g=98.0 m/s) Suppose you go to and unknown planet-X where the gravitational field on the planet is g'=23.15 m/s. Will a metal have a higher, lower or the same density on planet -X when compared to Earth. Assume the Volume of the metal doesn't changearrow_forward

The government responds that it is too much of an inconvenience to have this busy road obstructed for three months, so the job must be completed in one month. If the relationship between construction time and crew members is inversely proportional, how many crew members does the construction team need if they are to complete the job in one month? Express your answer as an integer.arrow_forwardThe mass of an iron nail is measured before and after being placed in a beaker of water for 2 days.

- The mass of one atom or molecule of a substance is given in atomic mass units, also called Daltons (abbreviated D or Da). Thus one molecule of water has a mass of 18.015 atomic mass units, or 18.015 Daltons. The atomic mass unit is defined such that one mole of water weighs 18.015 g. Suppose a protein has a mass of 64 192 Daltons (or 64.192 kDa). What would be the mass of one mole of this protein? O A. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 3.866 x 1028 g/mol. B. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 1.0 g/mol. C. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 18.015 g/mol. D. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 64.192 g/mol. E. This question can't be answered without knowing the number of atoms in the protein. F. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 6.4192 x 10-2 g/mol. G. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 3.866 x 1025 g/mol. H. A protein of 64 192 Da has a molar mass of 64 192 g/mol.arrow_forwardThe world population is estimated to be 7.4 x 109.
