Which statements about this simple circuit are correct? Check as many as apply. Then put your statements together to form a complete description. Shannon is correct. A battery is a source of current. Cameron is correct. The chemical reactions in a battery maintain its potential difference. A wire is a conductor with electrons that are free to travel throughout. The wire gets hot because the conduction electrons collide with ions in the wire. Avi is correct. The chemical reactions in a battery are like a wood-burning fire: both are a source of heat. Shannon is correct. Batteries must be replaced when they can no longer supply current. A battery is a source of energy. Cameron is correct. A wire is not like a dry riverbed.

Luke and carrie are driving down a straight section of the interstate at 70 mph in luke's new convertible. carrie is drinking a soda in the passenger seat. when she is done she tosses the bottle straight up in the air, just above the height of the car. what will happen to the bottle if air resistance is neglected? a. the bottle will land in carrie's lap. b. not enough information is given. c. the bottle will land on the interstate in front of the car. d. the bottle will land on the interstate behind the car.

Follow these directions and answer the questions. 1. set up the ripple tank as in previous investigations. 2. bend the rubber tube to form a "concave mirror" and place in the ripple tank. the water level must be below the top of the hose. 3. generate a few straight pulses with the dowel and observe the reflected waves. do the waves focus (come together) upon reflection? can you locate the place where the waves meet? 4. touch the water surface where the waves converged. what happens to the reflected wave? 5. move your finger twice that distance from the hose (2f = c of c, center of the curvature) and touch the water again. does the image (the reflected wave) appear in the same location (c of c)? you may have to experiment before you find the exact location. sometimes it is hard to visualize with the ripple tank because the waves move so quickly. likewise, it is impossible to "see" light waves because they have such small wavelengths and move at the speed of light. however, both are examples of transverse waves and behave in the same way when a parallel wave fronts hit a curved surface.

A175 g lump of molten lead at its melting point (327 c) is placed into 55.0 g of water at 20.0 c. the specific heat of lead is 130.j/kg c and the hf of lead is 20,400 j/kg. when the lead and the water have reached equilibrium, what is the temperature of the mixture?
