A hypothetical situation of being stranded on a deserted island without water is often posed to students. A model of a process used to separate salt water into its components is shown here. Justify the use of the flame in the model depicting the separation of the mixture.

A) The flame will sterilize the water, so that water from the ocean will be consumable. This is known as sanitation.
B) The flame will allow the pure water and salt water to separate into different layers. This is known as density separation.
C) The flame will burn the salt component of the mixture, leaving only the pure water behind for drinking. This is known as combustion.
D) The flame will allow the water to evaporate and be collected in its pure form, leaving the salt component behind. This is known as distillation.

The correct answer is D!

Explanation:

I got it wrong when I put C.

can be answered using momentum.

momentum = p

p1= mass1 * velocity1

p1 = p2

therefore

p1 = 6kg * 4m/s

p1 = 24kgm/s

p2=m2 * v2

24 kgm/s = 7kg * v2

v2 = 24 kgm/s / 7kg

v2= 3.42 m/s

the order for strong to weak forces such as

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force

the fundamental forces are those forces that act between to objects or element to make interactions. there are four types of fundamental forces such as strong and weak nuclear forces (due to protons and electrons), electromagnetic force (due to the motion of electrons) and gravitational force (due to orbital movement of the planet). if these forces are arranged on the basis of their maximum strength then the order is

strong nuclear force → electromegnetic force → weak nuclear force → gravitational force
