1. sometimes in very cold places water pipes burst. give reason why.

Atemperature inversion can cause a warm air mass to move over a colder air mass. this traps the colder air mass and prevents surface air from rising. this may result in which of these? a) smog b) acid rain c) freezing rain d) a thunderstorm

One hazard of space travel is debris left by previous missions. there are several thousand masses large enough to detect by radar orbiting the earth, but there are far greater numbers of very small masses such as flakes of paint. calculate the force exerted by a 0.110 mg chip of paint that strikes a space shuttle window at a relative speed of 5.00 ✕ 103 m/s and sticks, given the collision lasts 6.00 ✕ 10-8 s. such a collision chipped the window of the ill-fated challenger in june 1983, causing $50,000 of damage.

Ahypothetical metal has an orthorhombic unit cell for which the a, b, and c lattice parameters are 0.413 nm, 0.665 nm, and 0.876 nm, respectively. (a) if there are 8 atoms per unit cell and the atomic packing factor is 0.536, determine the atomic radius (in nm). (b) if the density is 3.99 g/cm3, calculate the metal's atomic weight (in g/mol).
