Waves transfer energy outward equally. Since there is no barrier to the water, when a raindrop hits the water that energy of the raindrop falling has to go somewhere, the energy is transferred from the raindrop to the water and goes outward from the epicenter (where the raindrop fell). The waves (circles) will continue to travel an equal distance unless there is an outside force such as wind, another object, ect. to stop the wave

A man rows upstream for 20 miles in 5 hours and 10 miles downstream in 2 hrs What is the speed of the man in still water?
Speed upstream(S.u) = 20/5 => 4miles/hr Speed downstream(S.d) = 10/2 => 5miles/hr Speed of man in still water(speed of boat in still water)= 1/2 * (S.u + S.d) = 0.5 * (4 + 5) = 0.5 *9 = 4.5miles/hr The speed of man in still water is 4.5 miles/hr
It takes a motor boat 3 hours to make a downstream trip with a current of 7 miles per hour the return trip against the same current took 5 hours find the speed of the boat in still water?
Since the distance downstream (with the current) equals the distance upstream (against the current), and if we: Let B stand for the speed (rate in mph) of the boat in still water, and using the formula rate X time = distance, the equation will be: (B+7) x 3 = (B-7) x 5 3B + 21 = 5B - 35 56 = 2B B = 28 mph Traveling downstream, the current will cause the boat to go faster so the 7 mph current is added to the boat's still water speed. Traveling upsteam the current slows or decreases the boat's rate so the current's speed is subtracted from the boat's still water speed.
A boat can travel from its dock to a town downriver with a 7 mph current in 10 hours The return trip against the same current takes 15 hours What is the speed of the boat in still water?
35 mph
How many BTU are required to raise the temperature of one gallon of water one degree Fahrenheit in one hour?
This is a pretty straightforward calculation. By definition, a BTU is the amount of energy required to raise one pound of water one degree F. But you have one gallon of water, which weighs approximately* 8.34 pounds. So, you'd need 8.34 BTU to increase one gallon of water one degree F. Note how the amount of time was not important. Whether you heat the water slowly or quickly doesn't matter. You will still require 8.34 BTU to raise the temperature of a gallon of water one degree F. * I say approximately because the weight of water varies slightly with its temperature. Water is at its densest at 4 degrees Celsius (39 degrees F). A gallon of water at temperatures above and below that value will weigh less.
What is the dependent variable between oil and water?
Water
Picture of energy transfer when a raindrop hits water in a pond?
When a raindrop hits water in a pond, the kinetic energy of the raindrop is transferred to the water. This energy causes ripples to form on the water's surface as the impact creates waves that spread outwards. Some of the energy is also dissipated as sound energy and heat.
What is a peace of earth that is sourounded by water called?
An island.
How does a sample of water in a bathtub compare to water in a raindrop?
poo sucks fat dicks
Is a raindrop a solid?
No, a raindrop is not a solid. It is a liquid that forms when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses and falls back to the ground as droplets.
What is at the center of every raindrop?
At the center of every raindrop is a tiny speck of dust or dirt that serves as a nucleation site for water vapor to condense around. This process forms a droplet that eventually grows heavy enough to fall to the ground as rain.
How can a raindrop eventually become a water that you drink at lunch eventually become part of a cloud?
the raindrop falls into a natural spring, then you drink natural spring water at lunch, and then you use the bathroom and it goes through sewage into a body of water which is then evaporated into a cloud.
What is the volume of water in a rain drop?
The volume of a raindrop typically ranges from 0.1 to 1 milliliter, depending on its size. The average size of a raindrop is around 0.5 millimeters in diameter.
How many little raindrop are in a rain drop?
You can't really quantize water in that way.
Would a raindrop contain 1 milliliter or 1 liter of water?
1 milliliter
What is the center of each raindrop?
In a raindrop, the center is essentially the point where surface tension forces pull the water molecules inwards, creating a spherical shape. This center is not a physical point but rather a cohesive force that holds the water droplet together.
Do water particles move in large circles true or false?
Water particles move in circles
What is the mass of water in metric tons?
The mass of what water? The water in one raindrop, in some lake or ocean, in all of the world, in all of the universe?
