The properties of water that allowed pennies to continue to be added to the glass are surface tension and cohesion. Surface tension creates a "skin" on the surface of the water, allowing the pennies to sit on top without sinking. Cohesion is the ability of water molecules to stick together, helping to support the weight of the pennies as they are added.

How many pennies can be added to a glass that is already full?

It is impossible to add pennies to a full glass as there is no space left for them to fit. The glass can only hold a certain volume of objects, in this case, pennies, before it overflows.


What are the intrinsic and extrinsic diodes?

Intrinsic diodes are formed by a p-n junction within a single semiconductor material, while extrinsic diodes are formed when impurities are added to a semiconductor material to alter its properties. Intrinsic diodes have natural electrical properties, while extrinsic diodes have controlled electrical properties based on the type and amount of impurities added.


What happens to ice when heat energy is added?

When heat energy is added to ice, the ice melts and turns into water. This process is called melting. As more heat energy is added, the water will continue to heat up until it reaches its boiling point, at which point it will turn into steam.


Are all pennies made of copper?

Most modern pennies or cents have almost no copper in them, no matter what country issues them. The reason is that copper now sells for about $4/lb so a 1-cent copper coin would contain much more than one cent's worth of metal. Today, US cents are made of zinc plated with copper; Canadian cents and British pennies are made of steel plated with copper. US "copper" cents were actually bronze, which is an alloy of copper with tin and/or zinc added. Bronze cents were discontinued in mid-1982 when the price of copper rose steeply.


How do you add energy and matter?

Energy can be added to a system by transferring heat, doing work, or through chemical reactions. Matter can be added by physically introducing it into the system through processes like mixing, injection, or diffusion. Both energy and matter can be added in ways that cause changes in the system's properties, such as temperature, pressure, or composition.

How do you make sake?

To make sake, sake rice is first steamed. Then Aspergillus oryzae, a type of mold, is added to the rice and allowed to ferment. Water and yeast is then added to the rice and mold mixture and allowed to continue to ferment. Solids are removed from the final product through filtering.

If water splashes out of a graduated cylinder during a measurement of the volume of pennies Will it affect the results?

Measuring the volume of pennies by their displacement requires that only water actually displaced by the pennies is measured. Unless the water was at the very top of the cylinder both before and after the pennies are added, splashed water will make the measurement invalid.Because surface tension forms a curved surface at the top of the water, it is advisable to have the cylinder only partly filled, and measure the level at the same part of the curved water surface both before and after the pennies are added. This will improve the accuracy of measurement.

Why is the associative property used?

Well, the combined use of the commutative and associate properties is certainly very useful. You can reorganize numbers to be added, or multiplied, in any order.Well, the combined use of the commutative and associate properties is certainly very useful.
