AContrast
BFaces
CColors

AThe edges of objects
BThe center of objects
CThe color of an object

What assumption does our visual system make in order to see curved surfaces (domes, holes)?

The teacher prepares 2.50 liters (L) of a salt solution for a class experiment. How many quarts (qt) are in 2.50 L? (1 quart =0.943 liters)

Answers

Answer

2.65 quarts

Explanation

1 quart = 0.943 liters

To find the how many quarts are there in 2.50 litres we divide the 2.50 litres with 0.943 litres.

Number of quarts = 2.50/0.943

= 2.651113468

To the nearest hundredths the answer = 2.65 quarts

the answer would be 2.65 quarts

a 100 watt microwave oven takes 90 secondd to heat a bowl f soup How many joules of energy does it use ?

Answers

Before I answer the question, please let me strip away all the color and decoration of the microwave story:

(100 watts) = 100 joules per second

(100 joules/second) x (90 seconds) = 9,000 joules .

I did that because the "100 watts" on the label on the front of the
microwave oven is the "cooking power" ... the power of the radio
waves that it shoots into the chamber to heat the soup or the meatloaf.

The whole appliance actually uses a lot more power than that to do its job.
The light, the turntable, and the cooling fan all use some power, and the
magnetron is not 100% efficient, so the appliance has to put way more
than 100 watts into the magnetron to wind up with 100 watts available
to shoot to the meatloaf.

When you ask "How much energy does it use ?", the answer is:
A lot more than what eventually comes blasting into the chamber
to actually cook with.
