Physics
1 answer:
barxatty [35]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).

the decimal reduction time (DRT) is the time it takes to kill 90% of cells present. Assume that a DRT value for autoclaving a cu
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

It takes 10.5 minutes to kill all the bacteria.

Only 1 cell would remain after 9 minutes.

Explanation:

It will take 1.5 minutes to kill 90% of the cells. So, after 1.5 minutes, only 10% would remain. After 3 minutes, only 1% remain. So, to figure out how long it would take to kill a million cells, we have to multiply 1 million by 0.1 repeatedly until the final value is less than 1 that is because when the value is less than 1, it means there are no more bacteria.

So:  

10^6 \times (0.1)^7 = 0.1  

So, you need 10.5 minutes of killing to kill one million cells.

Time taken=  7 x 1.5 minutes = 10.5 minutes.  

After 9 minutes you would have:  

10^{6} \times (0.1)^{6} = 1 cell left

The total energy need during pregnancy is normally distributed, with mean Mu = 2600 kcal/day and standard deviation = 50 kcal/da
Digiron [165]
This is a normal distribution and we can use the standard score to compute for probabilities. We compute the standard score of the given.

z = (x - mu)/sd
z = (2625 - 2600)/50 = 25/50 = 0.5.

Consulting the z-table, P(z <= 0.5) = 0.6915.
P(z > 0.5) = 1 - P(z <= 0.5) = 1 - 0.6915 = 0.3085.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!
