In most compartment fires, the energy release in fire is directly proportional to the:

Liula [17]

In most compartment fires, the energy release in fire is directly proportional to the amount of oxygen available for combustion.

Answer: Option B

Explanation:

A fire is the chemical outcome of energy generated by the heat. So, this heat is generating fire due to friction between the heating source with igniting elements. And to increase the chain reaction of fire leading to combustion or fire require oxygen. So, the amount of oxygen will lead to the production of fire. Thus, the energy released by fire will be equal to the amount of oxygen available for combustion.

If there is no oxygen, then the fire will get succumbed. The fire consumes the oxygen present to increase the pace and spread of fire. So the consumed oxygen utilized for converting the simple fire to combustion will be equal to the release of energy in fire. Thus, energy released in fire is directly proportional to the amount of oxygen available for combustion.

How will you connect 3 cells each of value 2V to give a total of 3V * Two in parallel with one in series Two in series with one

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

two of them in series with one in parallel

Explanation:

When two or more batteries are connected in

(a) series: the total voltage produced is equal to the sum of the voltages on each of the batteries. For example, if two batteries A and B of 3V and 2V respectively are connected in series, then the total voltage produced is

3V + 2V = 5V

(b) parallel: the total voltage produced is equal to the voltage on any one of the batteries. As a mention, only batteries of the same voltage should be connected together in parallel. For example, if two batteries A and B each of 4V are connected together in parallel, then the total voltage produced is 4V.

If these batteries are not of the same voltage, then the one of larger voltage will charge the one of the lower voltage until they both have the same voltage. That means that their eventual voltage will be the average of their voltages. For example, if two batteries A and B of 3V and 2V respectively, are connected in parallel, their total voltage will be,

(3V + 2V) / 2 =2.5V

Now, from the question.

Since there are three cells each of value 2V.

=>If we connect two of them in series, the total voltage from those two cells will be 2V + 2V = 4V

=>If we then connect this series connection in parallel with the third cell, then we have a parallel combination of 4V and 2V. Since they have different voltages, then the total voltage will be the average of the two voltages. i.e

(4V + 2V) / 2 = 6 / 2 = 3V

Therefore, to have a total of 3V from three cells each of 2V, we need to connect two of them in series with one in parallel

The product of 2 x 104 cm and 4 x 10–12 cm, expressed in scientific notation is ____.

sdas [7]

Answer: 8 * 10⁻⁸ cm² .
______________________________________________________
Explanation:
______________________________________________

(2 * 10⁴ cm) * (4 * 10⁻¹² cm) =

2 *4 * 10⁴ * 10⁻¹² = 8 * 10⁽⁴⁺⁽⁻¹²⁾⁾ = 8 * 10⁻⁸ cm² .
_________________________________________

Note the follow property of exponents:
_____________________________________________________

xᵃ * xᵇ = x⁽ᵃ ⁺ ᵇ⁾ ; as such: " 10⁴ * 10⁻¹² = 10⁽⁴⁺⁽⁻¹²⁾⁾ = 10⁻⁸ " .

You observe two stars over the course of a year (or more) and find that both stars have measurable parallax. (1 arc second is 1/

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Star X is much closer since it is at a distance 1 parsec from the Earth.

Explanation:

The angle due to the change in position of a nearby object against the background stars it is known as parallax.

The parallax angle can be used to find out the distance by means of triangulation. Making a triangle between the nearby star, the Sun and the Earth. This angle is gotten when the position of the object is measured in January and then in July according to the configuration of the Earth with respect to the Sun in those months.

The distance between the Earth and the Sun is 150000000 Km. That distance is also known as an astronomical unit (1AU).

The parallax angle can be defined in the following way:

$\tan{p} = \frac{1AU}{d}$
