Answer:

3/4 0r 0.75

Explanation:

Let E represent the extra cash.

Let R represent the amount raised.

From the question given above, we can say that:

The extra cash (E) is directly proportional to the amount raised (R) i.e

Extra cash (E) ∝ Amount raised (R)

E ∝ R

E = KR

NOTE: K is the constant of proportionality.

With the above formula, we can obtain the value of K as follow:

Extra cash (E) = $ 75

Amount raised (R) = $ 100

Constant of proportionality (K) =?

E = KR

75 = K × 100

Divide both side by 100

K = 75/100

K = 3/4 0r 0.75

Thus, the constant of proportionality is 3/4 0r 0.75

I take 1.0 kg of ice and dump it into 1.0 kg of water and, when equilibrium is reached, I have 2.0 kg of ice at 0°C. The water w
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

.c. −160°C

Explanation:

In the whole process one kg of water at  0°C loses heat to form one kg of ice and heat lost by them is taken up by ice at −160°C . Now see whether heat lost is equal to heat gained or not.

heat lost by 1 kg of water at  0°C

= mass x latent heat

= 1 x 80000 cals

= 80000 cals

heat gained by ice at −160°C to form ice at  0°C

= mass x specific heat of ice x rise in temperature

= 1 x .5 x 1000 x 160

= 80000 cals

so , heat lost = heat gained.

Suppose a person has a small intestine that has fewer villi than normal. Would the person most likely be overweight or underweig
Mekhanik [1.2K]
They would be likely to be underweight. This is because the role of villi is to increase absorption of soluble molecules, they do this by increasing surface area for absorption to occur across.
If the person has less villi than normal in their small intestine, then the surface area will not be as large meaning there is less area for absorption to occur across so less soluble molecules will be absorbed.

An aluminum "12 gauge" wire has a diameter d of 0.205 centimeters. The resistivity ρ of aluminum is 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters. The el
Alborosie

Answer:

I = 4.75 A

Explanation:

To find the current in the wire you use the following relation:

J=\frac{E}{\rho}      (1)

E: electric field E(t)=0.0004t2−0.0001t+0.0004

ρ: resistivity of the material = 2.75×10−8 ohm-meters

J: current density

The current density is also given by:

J=\frac{I}{A}        (2)

I: current

A: cross area of the wire = π(d/2)^2

d: diameter of the wire = 0.205 cm = 0.00205 m

You replace the equation (2) into the equation (1), and you solve for the current I:

\frac{I}{A}=\frac{E(t)}{\rho}\\\\I(t)=\frac{AE(t)}{\rho}

Next, you replace for all variables:

I(t)=\frac{\pi (d/2)^2E(t)}{\rho}\\\\I(t)=\frac{\pi(0.00205m/2)^2(0.0004t^2-0.0001t+0.0004)}{2.75*10^{-8}\Omega.m}\\\\I(t)=4.75A

hence, the current in the wire is 4.75A

A 4.0-mF capacitor initially charged to 50 V and a 6.0-mF capacitor charged to 30 V are connected to each other with the positiv
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

<em>The final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC</em>

Explanation:

The initial charge on 4 mF capacitor  = 4 mf  x 50 V = 200 mC

The initial Charge on 6 mF capacitor  = 6 mf x 30 V =180 mC

Since the negative ends are joined together  the total charge on both capacity would be;

q = q_{1} -q_{2}

q = 200 - 180

q = 20 mC

In order to find the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor we have to find the combined voltage

q = (4 x V) + (6 x V)

20 = 10 V

V = 2 V

For the final charge on 6.0 mF;

q = CV

q = 6.0 mF x 2 V

q =  12 mC

Therefore the final charge on the 6.0 mF capacitor would be 12 mC
