Smoking increases ____ levels in the blood, thus increasing the possibility of unwanted clotting.

1 answer:

7 0

It could increase homocysteine levels—and when these levels are raised, it could make the inner linings of the arteries to be damage and it usually occurs because of unwanted clotting increasing in a person’s body of which could cause factor or contributors making the increase, such as like smoking—this increases, the unwanted blood clots in the body which makes these levels increase, producing unwanted defects.

Three capacitors having capacitances of 8.40, 8.40, and 4.20 μFμF, respectively, are connected in series across a 36.0-V potenti

son4ous [18]

Answer:

a)Q=71.4 μ C

b)ΔV' = 10.2 V

Explanation:

Given that

C ₁= 8.7 μF

C₂ = 8.2 μF

C₃ = 4.1 μF

The potential difference of the battery, ΔV= 34 V

When connected in series

1/C = 1/C ₁ + 1/C₂ + 1/C₃

1/ C= 1/8.4 +1 / 8.4 + 1/4.2

C=2.1 μF

As we know that when capacitor are connected in series then they have same charge,Q

Q= C ΔV

Q= 2.1 x 34 μ C

Q=71.4 μ C

As we know that when capacitor are connected in parallel then they have same voltage difference.

Q'= C' ΔV'

C'= C ₁+C₂+C₃ (For parallel connection)

C'= 8.4 + 8.4 + 4.2 μF

C'=21 μF

Q'= C' ΔV'

Q'=3 Q

3 x 71.4= 21 ΔV'

ΔV' = 10.2 V

Arrange the following substances in order of decreasing magnitude of lattice energy.

kolbaska11 [484]

The formula is F = ( q1 * q2 ) / r ^ 2
where: q is the individual charges of each ion 
r is the distance between the nuclei 
The formula is not important but to explain the relationship between the atoms in the compounds and their lattice energy. 

From the formula we can first conclude that compounds of ions with greater charges will have a greater lattice energy. This is a direct relationship. 
For example, the compounds BaO and SrO, whose ions' charges are ( + 2 ) and ( - 2 ) respectively for each, will have greater lattice energies that the compounds NaF and KCl, whose ions' charges are ( + 1 ) and ( - 1 ) respectively for each. 

So Far: ( BaO and SrO ) > ( NaF and KCl ) 

The second part required you find the relative distance between the atoms of the compounds. Really, the lattice energy is stronger with smaller atoms, an indirect relationship. 
For example, in NaF the ions are smaller than the ions in KCl so it has a greater lattice energy. Because Sr is smaller than Ba, SrO has a greater lattice energy than BaO. 

Therefore: 
Answer: SrO > BaO > NaF > KCl

A 120-kg object and a 420-kg object are separated by 3.00 m At what position (other than an infinitely remote one) can the 51.0-

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1.045 m from 120 kg

Explanation:

m1 = 120 kg

m2 = 420 kg

m = 51 kg

d = 3 m

Let m is placed at a distance y from 120 kg so that the net force on 51 kg is zero.

By use of the gravitational force

Force on m due to m1 is equal to the force on m due to m2.

$\frac{Gm_{1}m}{y^{2}}=\frac{Gm_{2}m}{\left ( d-y \right )^{2}}$

$\frac{m_{1}}{y^{2}}=\frac{m_{2}}{\left ( d-y \right )^{2}}$

$\frac{3-y}{y}=\sqrt{\frac{7}{2}}$

3 - y = 1.87 y

3 = 2.87 y

y = 1.045 m

Thus, the net force on 51 kg is zero if it is placed at a distance of 1.045 m from 120 kg.

In comparison with a steep slope, a gentle slope _____.

kifflom [539]

A gentle slope requires less force over a longer distance as compared to steep slope.

Explanation:

Mechanical advantage of a slope is equal to the ratio of length of slope and the height. A steep slope has shorter length as compared to a gentle slope for the same height. Therefore, mechanical advantage of a gentle slope is more than that of a steep slope. Hence, a gentle slope requires less force over a long distance than a steep slope.
