6. What are the arguments for using real per capita GNI to compare living standards between countries? What weakness does this m

Answer:

Levels of real per capita GDP are often cited to indicate living standards are higher in one country than another, and, by implication, that some systems of government or sets of government policies are better than others, but this measure of comparative living standards is so flawed as to be practically useless.

There is a 50 g sample of Ra-229. It has a half-life of 4 minutes.
Sloan [31]

Via half-life equation we have:


A_{final}=A_{initial}(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{h} }


Where the initial amount is 50 grams, half-life is 4 minutes, and time elapsed is 12 minutes.  By plugging those values in we get:

A_{final}=50(\frac{1}{2})^\frac{12}{4}=50(\frac{1}{2})^{3}=50(\frac{1}{8})=6.25g


There is 6.25 grams left of Ra-229 after 12 minutes.

100 kw of power is delivered to the other side of a city by a pair of power lines with the voltage difference of 13014.1 v.
FinnZ [79.3K]
A) The power delivered to the lines is
P_{in}= 100 kW=1 \cdot 10^5 W
And the voltage at which the lines work is
V=13014.1 V
Since the power delivered is the product between the voltage and the current:
P=VI
We can find the current flowing in the lines:
I= \frac{P}{V}= \frac{1 \cdot 10^5 W}{13014.1 V}=7.68 A

b) The voltage change along each line can be found by using Ohm's law:
\Delta V = IR = (7.68 A)(10 \Omega)=76.8 V

c) The power wasted as heat along each line is given by:
P_d = I^2 R = (7.68 A)^2 (10 \Omega) = 590 W
And since we have 2 lines, the total power wasted as heat in both lines is
P_d = 2 \cdot 590 W=1180 W

Evidence that seismic waves transfer energy without transferring matter?
Sav [38]
Evidence that seismic waves transfer energy without transferring matter: Seismic waves do not transfer matter because the waves travel away from the faults because the movement in the crust occur along the faults as the seismic waves continue to travel away.
