The following enumeration is the list of actions which are considered to be illegal when operating your boat:

1 Operating the boat in a harsh or inconsiderate manner

2 Operating the boat in the absence of safety equipment

3 Actual weight exceeds the carrying capacity of the boat

4 Not prohibiting the riders to sit on gunwales, transom, stern, sides, bow or decking over the bow sides when the boat is underway, except when sufficient guards or railings are provided

5 Operating the boat or giving permission to other people to operate the boat while drunk or under illegal substances

6 Operating the boat and the wash or wake endanger any property or person

7 Operating the boat in an area designated for swimming

8 Operating the boat beyond a slow, no wake speed in locations marked as no wake zones

We can see that in this case, the rule # 6 is being trespassed. Therefore under Minnesota Boating Laws, we have committed an Illegal Operating Practice.

What do echolocation and ultrasounds have in common?

Natali5045456 [20]

They both are mechanical waves.

Explanation:

Echolocation and ultrasounds are both mechanical waves that require a medium to trace through. They both process and transfer information through waves; the difference is that we humans cannot hear ultrasound waves.

Which of the following statements about price elasticity of demand is true?

STatiana [176]

Answer:

B. The elastic portion of a straight-line, downward-sloping demand curve corresponds to the segment above the midpoint.

Explanation:

Elasticity measures the sensitivity of one variable to another. Specifically it is a figure that indicates the percentage variation that a variable will experience in response to a variation of another one percent.

The elasticity of demand measures the reaction of demand when one of the factors that affects it varies.

<u>Elasticity - Price of demand.</u>

easure the sensitivity of the quantity demanded to price variations. It indicates the percentage variation that the quantity demanded of a good will experience if its price rises by 1 percent.

<u> Elastic Demand </u>

The demand quantity is relatively sensitive to price variations, so the total expenditure on the product decreases when the price rises, the price elasticity takes value greater than -∞ but less than -1

Identify the independent, dependent, and constant variables for different experiments.

diamong [38]

ANSWER:

IV, Type of dish detergent. DV, height of foam. CV, type of container, amount of water in container, temperature of water, time the container is agitated.

Explanation:

Independent variable(IV)- what you change during the experiment.

dependent variable(DV)- what you're measuring during an experiment. The dependent variable is DEPENDENT because it's results DEPEND on the independent variable at play.

Constant variables(CV)- things that do not change in order to isolate the tested variables as much as possible.

A balloon filled with helium occupies 20.0 l at 1.50 atm and 25.0◦

bija089 [108]

At stp (standard temperature and pressure), the temperature is T=0 C=273 K and the pressure is p=1.00 atm. So we can use the ideal gas law to find the number of moles of helium:
$pV=nRT$
where p is the pressure (1.00 atm), V the volume (20.0 L), n the number of moles, T the temperature (273 K) and $R=0.082 atm L K^{-1} mol^{-1}$ the gas constant. Using the numbers and re-arranging the formula, we can calculate n:
$n= \frac{pV}{RT}= \frac{(1.00atm)(20.0L)}{(0.082 LatmK^{-1}mol^{-1})(273 K)}=0.89 mol$
