1h----------------> 70x3=210 bacteria
2h-----------------> 210*3=630 bactaeria
let be y the number of bacteria at the t=0h
it is y=70 3^0
for t= 1h
y=70*3^1=210
for t=2h
y=70*3^2=630

so we can write y=70*3^x, where x is the number of hour

The function to represent the growth of bacteria will be

a=70*3^b

a is the number of bacteria at time b

b is the number of hour(time)

Explanation:

As per the given information You start your experiment with 70 bacteria,and the bacteria triples in every hour so in

1 hour = 70*3=210 bacteria are formed

2 hour = 210*3=630 bacteria are formed

3 hour=630*3=1,890 bacteria are formed

let a  be the number of bacteria at the t=1 hour

if  t= 1 hour then

a=70*3^1=210

if t=2 hour then

a=70*3^2=630

Which of the following statements about the force on a charged particle due to a magnetic field are not valid?
Vinil7 [7]
The correct answer is "None of the above; all of these statements are valid." All the statements namely, it depends on the particle's charge, it depends on the strength of the external magnetic field, it depends on the particle's velocity, and it acts at right angles to the direction of the particle's motion are all valid. Thank you for posting your question. I hope this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.

What is the minimal mass of helium (density 0.18 kg/m3) needed to lift a balloon carrying two people in a basket, if the total m
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:   
 M[min] = M[basket+people+ balloon, not gas] * ΔR/R[b] 
 Î”R is the difference in density between the gas inside and surrounding the balloon. 
 R[b] is the density of gas inside the baloon.   
 ==================================== 
 Let V be the volume of helium required. 
 Upthrust on helium = Weight of the volume of air displaced = Density of air * g * Volume of helium = 1.225 * g * V   
 U = 1.225gV newtons 
 ---- 
 Weight of Helium = Volume of Helium * Density of Helium * g 
 W[h] = 0.18gV N   
 Net Upward force produced by helium, F = Upthrust - Weight = (1.225-0.18) gV = 1.045gV N  -----

 
 Weight of 260kg = 2549.7 N 
 Then to lift the whole thing, F > 2549.7 
 So minimal F would be 2549.7 
 ---- 
 1.045gV = 2549.7 
 V = 248.8 m^3   
 Mass of helium required = V * Density of Helium = 248.8 * 0.18 = 44.8kg (3sf)   
 =====   
 Let the density of the surroundings be R 
 Then U-W = (1-0.9)RgV = 0.1RgV   
 So 0.1RgV = 2549.7 N 
 V = 2549.7 / 0.1Rg   
 Assuming that R is again 1.255, V = 2071.7 m^3 
 Then mass of hot air required = 230.2 * 0.9R = 2340 kg   
 Notice from this that M = 2549.7/0.9Rg * 0.1R so   
 M[min] = Weight of basket * (difference in density between balloon's gas and surroundings / density of gas in balloon)   
 M[min] = M[basket] * ΔR/R[b]

What are close-toed shoes least likely to provide protection against?
Dennis_Churaev [7]
Hydrogen gas is harmless to your feet so since you don’t need protection against it that seems the best answer.

Lucille is finding it difficult to play soccer after school. Her doctor thinks that her cells might not be getting enough oxygen
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

See the explanation below.

Explanation:

Circulation of blood and oxygen is possible in body when circulatory system work along with respiratory system. Through tranche air moves in and out from lungs, whereas, through pulmonary arteries and veins (both connected to heart) blood moves in and out from the lungs. As Lucille is facing problem in his respiratory and circulatory system hence, it is difficult for him to play soccer because under normal circumstances when there is increase in physical activity then muscle cell respire more as compare to when the body is on rest. So, with increase of physical activity there is also increase in the rate of breathing which result in more absorption of oxygen and more removal of carbon dioxide but if there is problem in respiratory and circulatory system, for example, infection in throat due to pollution,etc. then this normal process of breathing gets affected which sometime may prove fatal to the person.
