About 10 % of them were not really matches at all

Since DNA analysis  take a huge amount of money , the FBI only test the suspect whom they almost 100% sure is the suspect.

But according to researches, about 10 % of the 'matches' in the physical characteristic of hairs were contradicted by the DNA analysis

According to Boyle’s law, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure if the _____.
muminat

Answer: temperature and number of particles are constant

Explanation:

In 1662, Robert Boyle put forth a theory that the volume of a gas will be inversely proportional to the pressure it exerts so long as the temperature is constant and the number of particles or mass is constant as well.

This means that at a constant temperature, the higher the volume of a gas, the less pressure it exerts which makes sense because more volume means that the gas particles are more dispersed which means that they would only be able to apply minimal pressure wherever they are because the particles are not numerous enough to have much effect.

Dose sound travel faster in a warm room or a cold room? explain your answer
dusya [7]

Answer:Sound travel faster in warm room.

Explanation:The speed of sound depends on the temperature of the medium. Mathematically, the relation between the speed of the sound and the temperature is give by:v=

is the ratio of the specific heats

R is the gas constant

T is the temperature of the medium

We know that the temperature of the warm room is more as compared to the cold room.

So, it is clear that the sound travel faster in a warm room. The particles move faster when the temperature is high.

A ball is dropped from a boat so that it strikes the surface of a lake with a speed of 16.5 ft/s. While in the water, the ball e
denis23 [38]
The initial velocity is
v(0) = 16.5 ft/s

While in the water, the acceleration is
a(t) = 10 - 0.\frac{dv}{dt} =10-0.8v \\\\  \frac{dv}{10-0.8v}=dt \\\\ \int_{16.5}^{v} \,  \frac{dv}{10-0.8v}  = \int_{0}^{t} dt \\\\ - \frac{1}{0.8} [ln(10-0.8v)]_{16.5}^{v}=t \\\\ ln \frac{10-0.8v}{-3.2}=-0.8t \\\\  \frac{0.8v -10}{3.2}  =e^{-0.8t} \\\\ 0.8v = 10 + 3.2e^{-0.8t} \\\\ v=12.5+4e^{-0.08t}

The velocity function is
v(t)=12.5+4e^{-0.8t}
It satisfies the condition that v(0) = 16.5 ft/s.
When t = 5.7s, obtain
v(5.7)=12.5+4e^{-0.8\times5.7} = 12.54 \, ft/s

The depth of the lake is
d=\int_{0}^{5.7} \, (12.5+4e^{-0.8t})dt \\\\ = 12.5(5.7)+ \frac{4}{(-0.8)}[e^{-0.8t}]_{0}^{5.7} \\\\ =71.25-5(0.0105-1) =76.198 \, ft

Answer:
The velocity at the bottom of the lake is 12.5 ft/s
The depth of the lake is 76.2 ft
