Write a linear equation that expresses the relationship between the temperature in degrees Celsius (C) and degrees Fahrenheit (F

). Use the fact that water freezes at 0°C (32°F) and boils at 100°C (212°F).

Answer:

\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}C+32

\displaystyle C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)

Explanation:

<u>Temperature Units Conversion </u>

The conversion formula between Celsius and Fahrenheit temperature scales is well-known. But we'll use the provided data to derive the formula. Let's model the relationship between Fahrenheit (F) and Celsius (C) as a linear function like

F=mC+b

Where m and b must be computed according to the pair of conditions given. The values for each temperature scale are (C,F)=(0,32) and (100,212). Replacing the first value

32=m\times 0+b

It means that  

b=32

By using the second point

212=m\times 100+32

Solving for m

\displaystyle m=\frac{212-32}{100}=\frac{180}{100}

Simplifying

\displaystyle m=\frac{9}{5}

So, the conversion formula is

\displaystyle F=\frac{9}{5}C+32

Which is the widely known formula for temperature conversion

Solving for C, we get the inverse relation

\boxed{\displaystyle C=\frac{5}{9}(F-32)}

Does research lessen its value for its being cyclical? Enumerate Two Possible advantages of a cyclical research
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Research usually is a cyclical process because it starts with a problem and ends with a problem.

This is bad or lessens the value of the research?

No, because there are problems that in nature are cyclical, (for example the related ones to action research).

And it also may be a good thing, solving one "problem" leads to another problem, but in the process of solving the first one we may win a lot of knowledge, and the same happens with the next one, and so on.

Two possible advantages of cyclical research are:

Knowing beforehand that the research will be cyclical, will allow us to estimate better the amount of time and money needed because we already know (more or less) where to aim.

It also may lead to a better end product, as we already know that we must focus in solving one thing and then we can focus in the next one.

Another possible advantage may be that we know that after the work, there will be a new thing to research, and it is fun, so if you are curious enough this may be a good thing (especially in scientific areas, physics, chemistry, etc).

A voltage of 220V (rms) line to netralvoltage is applied across a three phase Y connected resistive load. Each phase of the Y co
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Current through each phase Vp = 2.2A

Total three phase power Pt= 1.45kW

Power factor of the load pf = 1

Explanation:

i) Find current through each phase

Vp =220V (rms)

Z =100 Ω

I = Vp/Z

 = 220/100

 = 2.2A

ii) Find the total three phase power

for a resistive load, Power, P = VI

Power for each phase is given as:

P = 220 * 2.2

  = 484 W

Total power TP =3* P

                          =484*3

                          = 1452W

                           =1.45kW

 iii) Find the power factor of the load

Phase angle for a resistive load is 0.

α= 0

Hence, power factor of load = cos α

                                          pf      = cos 0

                                             pf    = 1

An empty beaker is placed on a top-pan balance. Some water is now poured into the beaker.What is the weight of the water? A. 0.0
mario62 [17]

Answer:

A. 0.044 kg

Explanation:

We need to subtract the sum of (beaker+water - empty beaker) which is 0.106 kg - 0.062 kg = 0.044 kg. The answer will not be written in Newton because this unit is used for force only and in this question w have to find the weight.

Hope it is enough.
