Scientists are studying different jackets made for extremely cold, snowy weather. They are trying to find jackets that are warm but also thin enough to allow for natural bodily movement.
Which question could the scientists answer scientifically?
Which jacket's color looks the best?
Which jacket traps the most heat?
Would warm and thin jackets cost less?
Which jacket seems the most professional?

Hot air balloons float in the air because of the difference in density between cold and hot air. in this problem, you will estimate the minimum temperature the gas inside the balloon needs to be, for it to take off. to do this, use the following variables and make these assumptions: the combined weight of the pilot basket together with that of the balloon fabric and other equipment is w. the volume of the hot air inside the balloon when it is inflated is v. the absolute temperature of the hot air at the bottom of the balloon is th (where th> tc). the absolute temperature of the cold air outside the balloon is tc and its density is ďc. the balloon is open at the bottom, so that the pressure inside and outside the balloon is the same. as always, treat air as an ideal gas. use g for the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity.

At 20°c, a sample of h2o liquid and a sample of co2 gas each have the same average kinetic energy. why is one a liquid and the other a gas at this temperature?

Which statement is true about a catalyst? a: a catalyst decreases the rate of the reaction. b. a catalyst is consumed during a chemical reaction. c. a catalyst lowers the activation energy of a reaction. d. a catalyst increases the reactant concentration during a reaction.
