A pesticide was applied to a population of roaches, and it was determined that the LD50 was 55mgkg. If the average mass of a roa

Answer:

55mg/kg * 0.02kg which gives 1.1 mg pesticides

Explanation:

(Options are missing)

If the average mass or weight of a roach is 0.02kg

And 55mg is needed per 1 kg roaches

The amount or size of pesticide required for 0.02kg roach is 55mg/kg * 0.02kg

Size = 55mg/kg * 0.02 kg

Size = 1.1mgkg/kg

Size = 1.1 mg

So, the size of pesticide required is 1.1mg

A housefly walking across a surface may develop a significant electric charge through a process similar to frictional charging.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Number of electrons, n=3.87\times 10^8\ electrons

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge on the fly, q=62\ pC=62\times 10^{-12}\ C

Let n is the number of electrons lose to the surface it is walking across. It is case of quantization of electric charge. It is given by :

q=ne

n=\dfrac{q}{e}

n=\dfrac{62\times 10^{-12}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}

n = 387500000 electrons

or

n=3.87\times 10^8\ electrons

So, there are 3.87\times 10^8 electrons. Hence, this is the required solution.

Why is thesize saved prior to entering the for loop? 2. what is the running time of removefirsthalf if lst is an arraylist? 3. w
Mrac [35]
<span>After entering the loop, it should use the correct list size and the loop will be affected if the remove call changes the size of the list. If lst is an Arraylist the running time of removefirsthalf is O (n^2). So when the beginning is removed the next element will move forward. If lst is a LinkedList which is a dynamic structure the running is O (n) for removefirsthalf</span>

A 8kg cat is running 4m/s. how much kinetic energy does it have?
Daniel [21]
The formula for kinetic energy is, { E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot m\cdot { v }^{ 2 } 
where m is mass and v is velocity.

Let's plug the given values in the formula.

{ E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot m\cdot { v }^{ 2 }\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot 8\cdot { 4 }^{ 2 }\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \cdot 8\cdot 16\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=4\cdot 16\\ \\ { E }_{ k }=64\quad \\ \\

It's kinetic energy is 64 Joules.
