This is just a basic proportion. 5/8 = x/12. So the 5 foot tall women would have a 7.5 foot shadow.

How much heat is required to raise the temperature of
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of liquid water is 9605 kilo joule .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The mass of liquid water = 50 g

The initial temperature = T_1 = 15°c

The final temperature = T_2  = 100°c

The latent heat of vaporization of water = 2260.0 J/g

Let The amount of heat required to raise temperature = Q Joule

Now, From method

Heat = mass × latent heat × change in temperature

Or, Q = m × s × ΔT

or, Q =  m × s × ( T_2 - T_1 )

So, Q = 50 g × 2260.0 J/g × ( 100°c - 15°c )

Or, Q =  50 g × 2260.0 J/g × 85°c

∴   Q = 9,605,000  joule

Or, Q =  9,605 × 10³ joule

Or, Q = 9605 kilo joule

Hence The amount of heat required to raise the temperature of liquid water is 9605 kilo joule . Answer

Estimate the indicated probability by using normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution. Estimate P(6)
lianna [129]

Answer:

P(6) = 0.6217

Step-by-step explanation:

To find P(6), which is the probability of getting a 6 or less, we will need to first calculate two things: the mean of the sample (also known as the "expected value") and the standard deviation of the sample.  

Mean = np

Here, "n" is the sample size and "p" is the probability of the outcome of interest, which could be getting a heads when a tossing a coin, for instanc

So, Mean = n × p = (18) ×(0.30) = 5.4

Next we we will find the standard deviation:

Standard Deviation = \sqrt{npq}

n = 18  and  p = 0.3   "q" is simply the probability of the other possible outcome (maybe getting a tails when flipping a coin), so   q = 1 - p

Standard Deviation =\sqrt{npq} = \sqrt{(18)(0.3)(0.7)}  

                                                            = 1.944

Now calculate the Z score for 6 successes.  

Z = ( of successes we're interested in - Mean) ÷ (Standard Deviation)

=(6-5.4)  ÷ (1.944) = 0.309

we have our Z-score, we look on the normal distribution and find the area of the curve to the left of a Z value of 0.309.  This is basically adding up all of the possibilities for getting less than or equal to 6 successes.  So, we get 0.6217.

Von mixes tomato sauce and milk to make soup. First he puts 150 milliliters of
elixir [45]

Answer:

C, 350

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that each dark mark on the measuring cup represents 100 mL. Using this information, we can now discover that the lighter marks are 50 mL more than a darker mark. Because the liquid is in between 300 and 400, we can take the average of these numbers to get a final answer of <u>350</u>.

Hope this helps!
