(The density of milk is 1,030 kg/m3).arrow_forwardWhy its it important, when building a terrarium, to use a clear container, such as glass? (a) so that the owner can determent whether there is enough air in the container (b) so that plants know when it is day or night, because they prefer to grow during the day (c) because plants need access to an energy source in order to produce sugars and oxygen (d) Because you wouldn’t able to look at your plants if the container wasn’t cleararrow_forwardThe recommended daily caloric intake is 2000 calories (8,400,000J). This is because this is the same value for how much the average body loses to heat and work in a typical day (your change in energy is zero because you take in the same amount of energy you lose). A) If you lose a total of 8,400,000J (Qout+W=total lost), but consume 1200 calories of food (5,000,000J), what would your change in energy be? B) Assuming your change in energy is negative (hint-it should be), where does your body get the extra energy to maintain it's temperature?arrow_forward
- On food labels, we can read the food-calories of the product. The food calorie is written as "Cal" and it corresponds to 1.000 calories with the lower case 'c!

After drinking it, the student looked up the nutritional value of the drink, and was shocked to find it was listed as 230.0 kcal (230.0 nutritional calories). After drinking the coffee, they weighed 87.88 kg. To work off all the calories, the student decides to climb the stairs in their building. How many floors do they need to climb to burn off the entire drink? (do not include units) Assume all floors are 3.00 m apart from each other. Assume all nutritional energy is fully converted to potential energy. 1 kcal = 4184 Jarrow_forward
- One proposed method of mitigating climate change is the planting of large numbers of trees. How would this reduce the problem of global warming? Trees reflect additional sunlight back into space before it strikes the ground, reducing the global temperature. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and thereby reducing the greenhouse effect. Trees prevent soil erosion, and soil erosion contributes to the greenhouse effect. Trees release water vapor into the atmosphere, increasing the cloud cover and reducing the global temperature.arrow_forwardThe air quality index in Beijing last year recorded average ozone (O3) levels of 110 ppb (on a mol basis). Does this exceed Canada's acceptable 24 hour National Ambient Air Quality Objective (NAAQO) of 50 micrograms/M3? Assume the average molar mass of air is 29.0 g/mol and its density is 1.225 kg/M3.arrow_forward(A) if both sentences are true, (B) if both sentences are false, (C) if the first sentence is true but the second is false, and (D) if the first sentence is false but the second is true. 1. From the air, oxygen can slowly diffuse across the water’s surface from the surrounding atmosphere, or be mixed in quickly through aeration, whether natural or man-made. The aeration of water can be caused by wind (creating waves), rapids, waterfalls, ground water discharge or other forms of running water. 2. Nuclear energy is synonymous to atomic energy. Uranium is often used as fuel in nuclear reactors because its atoms do not split apart easily. 3. In collecting the tap water sample used in the experiment on dissolved oxygen determination, the container was allowed to overflow so that no bubbles will be formed inside the container that may affect the amount of DO in the water sample. In the experiment on dissolved oxygen determination, the tips of the pipettes should be well above the surface of…arrow_forward
